Overview

The Rossi 462 is a six-shot, double-action/single-action revolver with a 4-inch barrel, designed for .357 Magnum and .38 Special +P ammunition. As a used police trade-in, this specific run of the Rossi 462 stainless 357 magnum used police trade-in revolver comes from a major law enforcement agency that standardized on this model for backup and plainclothes duty. The stainless steel construction resists corrosion and stands up to holster wear. The fixed sights are standard for this configuration, offering a low-profile sight picture suitable for defensive shooting. Cylinder gap and timing have been verified within factory tolerances.

Who It Is For

This revolver is intended for budget-conscious shooters who need a reliable .357 Magnum for home defense, range practice, or as a truck gun. It is also suitable for collectors seeking a representative example of a modern law enforcement trade-in revolver. The Rossi 462 stainless 357 magnum used police trade-in revolver is not recommended for those seeking a pristine presentation piece or a competition-ready trigger. It is a working firearm with cosmetic wear that includes holster rub, minor surface scratches, and possibly faded bluing on the hammer and trigger. The mechanical condition is serviceable, and the revolver is ready to fire with proper ammunition. If you require a perfect exterior finish, this is not the correct product. If you want a functional revolver at a reduced cost, this fits that requirement.
