Overview

Rossi has been building dependable revolvers for decades, and the R351 chambered in 38 Special is a classic example of their work. This is a five-shot, steel-frame revolver with a 2-inch barrel, making it compact enough for concealment but substantial enough to control. As a trade-in, each Rossi R351 38 Special used trade-in revolver we offer has been function-checked and cleaned. The finish is typically a mix of blued steel and some honest patina. These are not safe queens. They are working revolvers that still have plenty of life left in them. You get a proven design at a fraction of the cost of a new piece, and the 38 Special cartridge is affordable and widely available, which keeps your practice costs low.

Features & Specs

This revolver is straightforward and built to last. Here is what you are getting with this trade-in:

• Caliber: 38 Special. Five-round capacity. Smooth, heavy trigger pull typical of a defensive revolver.
• Barrel length: 2 inches. Fixed front and rear sights. Steel frame and cylinder with a blued finish that shows honest wear.
• Grips: Factory hardwood or rubber depending on the individual trade-in. Overall length is just under 7 inches, weight is around 22 ounces unloaded.

Because these are trade-ins, no two are exactly alike, but they all share the same robust Rossi DNA. The cylinder locks up tight, the timing is within spec, and the bore is generally good with visible rifling. Expect the finish to have wear at the muzzle, cylinder flutes, and high edges. This is a revolver that has been carried and used, and it shows.

Who It Is For

A Rossi R351 38 Special used trade-in revolver is for the shooter who values function over cosmetics. It is for the person who wants a reliable 38 Special for home defense, plinking, or as a truck gun without spending new-gun money. It is also an excellent choice for a new revolver shooter who wants to learn on a piece they are not afraid to scratch. If you are a collector looking for a pristine example, this is not the revolver for you. But if you want a solid, affordable shooter that you can carry and use hard, this trade-in fits the bill. It is also a great option for left-handed shooters, since the cylinder swings out the same way regardless of handedness.
