Features & Specs

The Rossi R98 is built around a simple, robust design that prioritizes reliability. It chambers the ubiquitous 22LR cartridge, which remains affordable and easy to find. The revolver features a 6-round cylinder and offers both double-action and single-action trigger operation, giving you flexibility in your shooting style. Below are the key details you can expect.

• Manufacturer: Rossi. Category: Revolvers. The Rossi name has a long history of producing practical, budget-friendly firearms for the North American market.
• Caliber: 22 Long Rifle (22LR). This rimfire round is perfect for low-recoil practice, target shooting, and small game hunting.

• Barrel length is typically 4 inches, offering a good balance between sight radius and portability.
• The overall finish is blued, though cosmetic blemishes may cause some areas to appear lighter or marked.
• Capacity is 6 rounds, standard for a small-frame 22LR revolver.

Because these revolvers have cosmetic blemishes, each one may look slightly different. However, the mechanical function has been verified. This is a working tool, not a safe queen, and the price reflects that honest condition.
