Rossi Youth .410 Gauge Single-Shot Shotgun

When you are ready to introduce a young shooter to the field or the range, the rossi youth .410 gauge single-shot shotgun is a natural first choice. It is lightweight, simple to operate, and chambered in a mild .410 bore that makes learning proper form comfortable rather than intimidating. Rossi has been building dependable, no-frills firearms for generations, and this youth model carries that tradition forward without unnecessary complexity. Whether you are teaching safe gun handling or chasing small game, this single-shot design keeps the focus on fundamentals.

Overview

The Rossi youth .410 gauge single-shot shotgun is a break-action firearm built specifically for smaller-framed shooters. It features a 22-inch barrel, a synthetic stock that resists weather and rough handling, and a manual hammer that must be cocked before each shot. This design forces a deliberate pause between loading and firing, which is exactly what new shooters need to build safe habits. The overall length and weight are scaled down so that a young person can mount the gun naturally without struggling to hold it steady.

Features & Specs

This shotgun keeps things straightforward: one round in the chamber, one shot at a time. There are no magazines, no pumps, and no semi-automatic action to worry about. The break-open action is smooth and requires minimal effort, making it easy for small hands to load and unload. The manual hammer is visible and tactile, giving the shooter and instructor a clear indication of whether the gun is ready to fire.

• Barrel length: 22 inches, fixed modified choke
• Stock: Black synthetic with a recoil pad designed for youth shooters

The exposed hammer is easy to thumb back even with gloves on, and the automatic safety engages when you open the action. These are small details, but they add up to a gun that feels safe in the hands of a beginner.

• Chamber accepts 2.5-inch and 3-inch .410 shells
