Rossi R97 Complete Specs and Full Gun Specifications

I've always liked Rossi firearms. They just work and the prices reasonable. This particular revolver works very smooth and is accurate. I placed a spent shotshell upright on a log at 50 yards. The first shot from my Rossi, took it down. Comfortable and ea

Rossi makes great pistols for a great price. Very reliable firearms.

I got my Rossi in right before Christmas, and it was a beautiful gun right out of the box. Superb Finish, and I took it to the Range and shot close to 200 rounds through it, using 38 special. Did not have one issue and it shoots straight. I would tell any

Buds Service was good no issues and shipping was fast. Now for the gun, For being a Rossi the quality is nice, Few machining marks and nice high polish. Cylinder and crane were nice and tight very tight tolerance, lockup was tight and cylinder alignment w

Like every other review, quick service, no complaints regarding the Buds crew. Had my eyes on a .357 4 inch for a while, going back and forth between Ruger and S&W. Couldn’t pass up the excellent deal on the 6 inch 972 Rossi, $309!!! Smooth trigger, accur

This is a really pretty revolver. The SS is nicely polished. iIt is very accurate and a pleasure to shoot. At 20 yards, the Grouping was about 3 inches shooting freestyle and standing using two hands. The trigger pulls about 3# on my digital meter for SA.

Excellent revolver, very accurate and fits in my hand well. I am very pleased. I will purchase more from Budsgunshop soon.

Great revolver for the price! Grips are a bit small, but easy to swap out. Shoots 38 spl all day long w/o any trouble. Store was out of .357 ammo when I purchased, so no opinions on how it handles the big loads yet. Super Long DA trigger pull, but SA is a

2nd Bud's purchase... Quick, easy, trouble free.. Shipped with in 36 hours.. In my hands within 5 days... EXCELLENT TRANSACTION... Very pleased with Bud's service... The Gun... Inspection at FFL revealed no issues... Fit and finish are very good... Highly

Beautiful revolver! The only thing I'm not totally happy about is the cylinder (it's a little sloppy uncocked but it locks up tight when cocked). I fired 2 1/2 boxes of .357 Magnum with no issues. The DA trigger is a little stiff but the SA trigger is cri

Great gun for the price. Took it out of the box and went out and killed a hog with it. Very accurate. I would recommend this gun to anybody.

Why spend $500+ for a S&W or even more for a Ruger. This is a very reliable & accurate .357 magnum. Fits comfortable in the hand. I just love the wheel guns.

First off this is my first order from Bud's and I'm very happy. Super fast shipping and easy transaction with the preferred FFL on my end. Now on to the revolver. Very well finished but it does have just a very small spot of rough finish on the end of the

Received Rossi and picked up, want can I say great price and super fast shipping,bought from Buds before and very satisfied

Very nice fit and finish . At the range I shot 148 lwc with target load , and I can say at 25yds the accuracy was very good . All in all it's a very nice revolver that can be used for defense or fun at the range !

Great right out the box. The negatives are to small to mention. Thanks buds!

light gun -- kicks worse than my Judge shooting 3" .410 slugs

This gun is exactly as advertised. AWESOME!

I just received my .357 today, very fast shipping. gun needs a little clean but overall is awesome. thank you once again Buds, your service is second to none

great gun, finish is super,shipping to ffl was fast,very happy. will buy again from buds.

Got my Rossi in a timely manner as usual. Was a bit reluctant to buy this gun over the S&W but I figured what the heck. Gun is well built and fits my medium sized hand perfect. Vary accurate just a bit of sight tweaking. Love the adjustable sights. Took h

this revolver is beautiful and exactly what I wanted, with only one real fault: the grips kinda suck. they are a bit too small at the butt. as of yet, I have not been able to find grips for my larger hands. otherwise the gun is fantastic. the 38's I put t

I purchased this weapon because I own the Rossi 971 .357 4" and also the Rossi is a very good handgun that has a very light trigger pull and is very easy to shoot. The first thing I noticed is that the cylinder release is really loose. It sets about 1/16

Great gun for the money. Index of the barrel to the frame was a bit off, but overall not anything to worry about.

this gun is awesome first couple shots i took with it where dead on and im not that great of a shot buds you guys are great price shipping product keep doing what you are doing dropping the hot sh*t. grips are kinda small and i have not been able too find

Love this gun. I've put 100 rounds through it so far, both 357 and 38, and it has performed flawlessly. Super accurate too. The only downside is the small grips but they are good enough.

I don't know people, I read these reviews and I can't tell who i should believe. I purchased the 6 inch model for my wife and she (we) are very impressed with the way it shoots and looks. So far we put 300 rounds of good to fair ammo through it and it has

I took a little bit longer to get the product from Buds but I understand I am the type of NOT SO patient. The ROSSI is great. Can't beat it. Shot flawlessly 357, 38 special, (500 rounds since I got it). The double action trigger needs some getting use to

This is the first revolver I ever purchased or shot. I have been a semi-auto or rifle guy. The gun arrived in new condition, sitll in factory plastic (though still had soot from the factory test fire. I was a little apprehensive as to what kind of kick to

The gun is great only shot 50 rounds of .357 mag through it but had no problems. The only reason i gave it 4 stars is because the grips are kind of small and uncomfortable but fits my hand barely. But, for under 400 dollars ss with a 6 inch barrel and wel

BUDS SERVICE WAS GOOD AS USUAL BUT THE ROSSI IS NOT AS GOOD AS THEY WERE BEFORE TAURUS STARTED MAKING THEM.HAD ONE YEARS AGO AND THIS IS NOWHERE NEAR AS GOOD.

I PURCHASED THIS 357 ABOUT TWO MONTHS AGO. I'VE RAN 100 ROUNDS THREW IT WITH NO PROBELEMS AT ALL. I WAS SURPRISED HOW ACCURATE IT WAS WITH DECENT AMMO.I HAVE NOT SHOT ANY CHEAP AMMO YET SO IM NOT SURE ON THAT. NO IT IS NOT A NICE AS THE SMITH & WESSON MOD

I have just purchased a Rossi 972 6 inch .357 magnum pistol in stainless steel. I got it in about 5 days. I went and shot it two days after I received it. I put two boxes of 38 special and one of .357 magnum through it. The cylinder finally became stuck a

I got to shoot my R972 today. I've had it about 3 weeks. It showed up with a few light tool marks in the finish, but I've been polishing it with Mother's Mag Polish. It looks like a mirror now..:) I shot about 120 rounds of WWB 158 gr 38, Remington UMC 38

Shipping was fast, as always. This is my third purchase from buds and I am happy again. I took the pistol out to the range, 50 rounds of .357 mag and 20 rounds of .38 special and I really like this pistol. very well built for the price, would certainly bu

I own a 972 in 6 inch 357 Mag and I li I finally shot it I am very disapointed After the fourth shot cylinder has to be manually moved When you buy a new gun you expect it to work correctly Sending it back is such a hassel I will have to live with it the

This 357 is not to the quality of other manufacturers, but when you look at the price and what you are getting it is great. The gun shoots great and feels good in my hand. I can easily one hand this and still retain a respectable grouping. The finish is n

I finally tested it today, and I am completely disappointed. The drum will not move around every second load, so I have to move it manually. My understanding is that I cannot give it to a gunsmith under the Buds warranty but need to send it back to them w

I purchased this gun for my husband. It is very accurate at 50 to 75 yards he was still hitting bulls eyes, and a perfect score of 300. After cleaning off the initial solvents from the packing material this gun shines up great. It really looks nice. No ja

Looked and read forever; wanted to buy a S&W for reputation of quality. After checking out the rossi series now made by Taurus and finding out they had a much better warranty (not just to original owner; almost no questions asked) I went for it. I am not
