Bainbridge GA – Once one of the leading names in revolvers, Rossi is back

in the US revolver market and better than ever with three new guns. These new revolvers bring back timeless features from Rossi’s past, while incorporating modern manufacturing techniques.

First up is the new RP63, or as we like to call it, your next carry gun. A stainless-steel revolver chambered in .357 Magnum, the RP63 is perfect for home defense or every day carry. It uses a rounded grip frame, which reduces printing when carried concealed. With a higher capacity than similarly sized revolvers, the RP63 holds six rounds in the cylinder. The sights are fixed, which is optimal for a carry gun, and the front sight is ramped for a snag-free draw. Like all the new Rossi revolvers, the firing pin is mounted on the hammer, which has been a feature of Rossi Revolvers for over a century. Rounding off this redesign is an all-new match-grade trigger that elevates the shooting experience.

Up next is the RM66. This six-shot revolver has the same fantastic trigger as its 3-inch brother, but sports 6 inches of barrel and adjustable sights. Perfect for range day, ranch work, or revolver competition shooting, the RM66 will also squeeze the best possible ballistics out of the .357 Magnum cartridge. Although this revolver is also stainless steel, it uses a square butt configuration, making the RM66 easier to shoot with full power magnums or 38 Specials.

Later this year, our 4 inch “do everything” revolver, the RM64, will join ranks with the RP63 & RM66. 4-inch medium frame revolvers chambered in .357 Magnum are widely regarded by experts as an optimal choice for a revolver that does a little bit of everything well. You can carry concealed, use it in the woods, hunt with it, defend your home with it, or even shoot IDPA with it. It features the same match grade trigger as all the Rossi revolvers, and the same adjustable sights as the RM66.

Rossi revolvers are back in a big way. The RP63 and RM66 are available now, and the RM64 will launch to your gun store later this year. Read more

These two big bore pistols feature industry-first capacity, with a standard 15-round capacity and 22+1 rounds of 10mm or 18+1 rounds of .45 ACP from the extended magazines. Styled after the FN 509® Tactical, the two pistols also feature a threaded barrel for muzzle devices, optics cut for red dot optics and suppressor-height night sights. Whether hiking in the backcountry or defending the home front, the FN 510 Tactical and 545 Tactical handily deliver the capacity to confront any possible situation with accuracy and precision, in a highly controllable package.

“There has been significant interest from FN owners in pistols chambered in big bore calibers over the last several years,” said Chris Cole, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for FN America, LLC. “We are excited to announce the release of the FN 510 Tactical and 545 Tactical pistols, chambered in 10mm and.45 ACP, that advance our flagship striker-fired line of pistols and complement our FNX-45 Tactical and FN 509 Tactical.”

Chambered in two of the most popular personal defense calibers, 10mm and .45 ACP, the FN 510 Tactical and 545 Tactical pistols offer industry-first capacities in an overall package not much bigger than the FN 509. At just 1.45 inches wide and just 6 inches tall with the standard magazine, these powerful defensive pistols pack serious performance into a full-sized package that can still be concealed and comfortable to shoot.
