Overview

The Rossi Model 13 is a six-shot, double-action revolver manufactured by Rossi of Brazil, a brand with decades of experience producing functional firearms for civilian and police markets. This specific batch consists of police trade-in units, meaning these revolvers were carried by officers for duty use and are now being cycled out of service. The Rossi Model 13 22LR Police Trade-In Revolver features a blued steel finish with a 4-inch barrel, adjustable rear sight, and a comfortable rubber grip designed for prolonged handling. While the exterior finish may show holster wear, scuffs, or minor finish loss consistent with service use, the actions remain functional and the bores are generally clean with strong rifling. Each revolver is function-checked prior to shipment to ensure safe operation.

Who It’s For

The Rossi Model 13 22LR Police Trade-In Revolver is ideally suited for budget-conscious shooters, new revolver enthusiasts, and collectors of law enforcement surplus. It serves as an excellent training companion for those who carry a centerfire revolver but want to practice with cheaper .22 LR ammunition. The adjustable sights and light recoil make this a practical choice for plinking, small game hunting, or introducing new shooters to revolver operation. Because these are trade-ins, the Rossi Model 13 22LR Police Trade-In Revolver also appeals to those who appreciate the character and history of service firearms without paying premium prices for pristine condition. It is not recommended for collectors seeking unfired examples, as these units exhibit clear signs of prior carry.
