Gun show finds..

My Rossi Princess,
7-shot .22lr with original Rossi box.
The Princess was manufactured from 1957 through approximately 1985, but was only imported into the United States from 1965 through 1969! A victim of the Gun Control Act of 1968. For some reason I fell inlove with this gun when i first seen it. Goodluck seeing many more... I believe only 60,000 were allowed into the US before the GCA..who knows how many are actually still around???

Interesting. I didn't know Rossi made one. It reminds me of the original "Lady Smith", the S&W M frame from way back in the day.

I would love to have one of those. Have you fired it?

Oh that's not mine. Just a pic I found on the interwebz. The M frame Smiths bring a chunk of money and most owners don't fire them. They were delicate little things. Your Rossi is cool!

I have a couple "I" frame Smiths though and they are pretty small. They were in .32 and .38 S&W.

Here's a I frame next to an N frame
