Rossi 68
Anyone here carry or have a M36 lookalike. This Rossi Model 68 is a great little snubby. It’s about as nice as any J Smith I’ve owned. This one is from the Interarms era in the 1990’s.

I had one a number of years ago. Wish I still had it sold it off when I bought my first S&W chief special.
It had Interarms Washington DC on it. They are just as reliable, and accurate as any J frame Smith. I read one time they were made off S&W tooling that Rossi bought and refurbished. I have never been able to substantiate the claim though.

That’s a nice one! I wouldn’t mind finding one that nice myself, as I have an affection for snubbies.
The only Rossi I have is a 720 in .44 spl.
The pre-Taurus Rossi’s seem to be decent guns.

I sold a number of Rossi 68's when I had my store...I never had a complaint about them...They were an inexpensive alternative to S&W... ...Ben

Rossi is much better than people think. I would never part with my two, a model 68 like yours and a 971 with Sile walnut target stocks.
