Overview
The Rossi M713 is a six-shot, stainless steel revolver chambered in .357 Magnum, originally procured for police duty. As genuine police trade-ins, these revolvers have been subjected to regular maintenance cycles and are now available to the civilian market. They feature a 4-inch barrel, a full underlug, and a ventilated rib that provides a clear sight picture. The double-action/single-action trigger system allows for controlled, precise shooting. This is a combat-proven platform offered at a price point that significantly undercuts new production equivalents.
Features & Specs
This revolver is built around a robust stainless steel frame that resists corrosion and handles high-pressure .357 Magnum loads. The police trade-in designation means these revolvers have been carried extensively but fired less frequently, resulting in holster wear with mechanically sound actions. Below are the key features:
- Caliber: .357 Magnum (also accepts .38 Special +P for reduced recoil practice)
- Capacity: 6-round cylinder with a swing-out design for quick reloads
- Barrel length: 4 inches with a ventilated rib and ramp front sight for rapid target acquisition
- Action: Double-action/single-action with a transfer bar safety mechanism
- Construction: Solid stainless steel frame, cylinder, and barrel assembly
- Grips: Original factory rubber grips designed for recoil management
Each Rossi M713 357 Magnum Police Trade-In Revolver is inspected for function, including timing, endshake, and cylinder lockup. The finish will show holster wear, edge wear, and minor scratches consistent with police service. Mechanically, these revolvers are rated as good to very good condition.
Who It Is For
The Rossi M713 357 Magnum Police Trade-In Revolver is ideal for three primary user groups. First, budget-conscious shooters who want a full-power .357 Magnum without paying new retail prices. Second, collectors of law enforcement trade-in firearms who value the provenance and character of service-used equipment. Third, shooters seeking a rugged truck gun, cabin revolver, or range toy that can handle adverse conditions. The stainless steel construction makes it suitable for outdoor use in wet or humid environments. This revolver is not recommended for those requiring a pristine, safe-queen appearance, as it is a working gun with visible wear.
- Practical for home defense with .38 Special loads for reduced over-penetration risk
- Suitable for trail carry where .357 Magnum provides adequate deterrent against large animals
- Excellent for new revolver shooters learning fundamentals on a full-frame platform
