EST. 1889
January 2023, Bainbridge GA – Once one of the leading names in revolvers, Rossi is back in the US revolver market and better than ever with three new guns. These new revolvers bring back timeless features from Rossi’s past, while incorporating modern manufacturing techniques.
First up is the new RP63, or as we like to call it, your next carry gun. A stainless-steel revolver chambered in .357 Magnum, the RP63 is perfect for home defense or every day carry. It uses a rounded grip frame, which reduces printing when carried concealed. With a higher capacity than similarly sized revolvers, the RP63 holds six rounds in the cylinder. The sights are fixed, which is optimal for a carry gun, and the front sight is ramped for a snag-free draw. Like all the new Rossi revolvers, the firing pin is mounted on the hammer, which has been a feature of Rossi Revolvers for over a century. Rounding off this redesign is an all-new match-grade trigger that elevates the shooting experience.

Up next is the RM66. This six-shot revolver has the same fantastic trigger as its 3-inch brother, but sports 6 inches of barrel and adjustable sights. Perfect for range day, ranch work, or revolver competition shooting, the RM66 will also squeeze the best possible ballistics out of the .357 Magnum cartridge. Although this revolver is also stainless steel, it uses a square butt configuration, making the RM66 easier to shoot with full power magnums or 38 Specials.
Later this year, our 4 inch “do everything” revolver, the RM64, will join ranks with the RP63 & RM66. 4 inch medium frame revolvers chambered in .357 Magnum are widely regarded by experts as an optimal choice for a revolver that does a little bit of everything well. You can carry concealed, use it in the woods, hunt with it, defend your home with it, or even shoot IDPA with it. It features the same match grade trigger as all the Rossi revolvers, and the same adjustable sights as the RM66.
Rossi revolvers are back in a big way. The RP63 and RM66 are available now, and the RM64 will launch to your gun store later this year.

With the hammer mounted firing pin, I have to wonder if these are drop safe. If not, they will not be sold in California; and as of now, they are not listed on the Roster of Approved firearms. Which would be a shame; I could go for the 4″ model.

Roars back to what? The late 70s? What happened to all the unique revolvers Rossi used to make? The older .44 specials still command high prices in a sea of .38/.357 wheel guns from other makers. At least the cylinder ratchets were up to the job and they had enough weight to counteract bullet pull while still being smaller and much cheaper than a 696.
Gotta start somewhere. And currently, the Rossi is considerably less expensive than most of the competition. The RP63 retails for under $500.
