Default Rossi Model 69

I have a thing for .32s and found this little Rossi for $180. Gun looks to be in good shape and with make a good companion for my 332 and h&r 732. Gonna see about getting some larger grips once I receive the gun. I also want to keep the stock grips in good shape.

IT's funny, but I saw a similar piece in an online auction not long ago, but I THINK it had a 3" barrel. Thought of bidding on it, but it would be yet another caliber and gun I had just because it came cheap. You can go broke saving money like that.

The only Rossi revolver I've owned, a Model 60 clone, was a very satisfactory little gun. With a little polish of the innards by a smith, the trigger was easily comparable to some J-frames I've handled. This was twenty years ago, but I carried it as my EDC for about a year till I got a 640.

I would love to have a .32 like that one.

I had a Rossi 32 also. Mine was 4" and nickel, a very good shooter. The frame size is just a little bigger than a "J" But Tyler T-Grip adapters fit fine. At the time I had 5, 32 S&W long Revolvers, now I out, so I'm looking!
