Overview
The Rossi M713 357 Magnum Police Trade-In Revolver is a stainless steel, medium-frame revolver built during a time when Rossi was producing rugged, utilitarian firearms for duty use. These police trade-ins typically show holster wear, handling marks, and sometimes a bit of carbon buildup, but the mechanical function is generally very solid. The 4-inch barrel provides a good balance between sight radius and concealability, and the full underlug gives the gun a forward weight that helps manage recoil when shooting full-house .357 Magnum loads. This is a revolver that was used on the job, and it carries that character in every scuff and scratch.
