Overview

The Rossi 462 is a stainless steel, six-shot revolver chambered in .357 Magnum, which also accepts .38 Special rounds for lighter recoil and cheaper practice.

You get a proven design with a solid frame, a 4-inch barrel for a good balance of accuracy and concealability, and a stainless finish that holds up to moisture better than blued steel. If you want a revolver that works hard and looks like it, this is it.

Features & Specs

• Caliber: .357 Magnum / .38 Special +P. This gives you the flexibility to shoot affordable .38 Special for the range and full-power .357 Magnum for serious work.
• Barrel Length: 4 inches. A classic duty length that provides a good sight radius for accurate shooting while still being manageable for carry or home defense.
• Finish: Stainless steel. Resists rust and corrosion better than blued models. Expect minor scuffs and holster wear consistent with police use.
• Capacity: 6 rounds. Simple, reliable, and easy to load with speedloaders or moon clips (if modified).

• Sights: Fixed front and rear. Durable and snag-free, ideal for defensive shooting.
• Grips: Rubber combat grips that absorb recoil and provide a secure hold even with sweaty hands or in wet weather.
