About this product

<h1>Rossi M518 22 LR Police Trade-In Revolver</h1> <p>Acquired directly from law enforcement inventory, the Rossi M518 22 LR Police Trade-In Revolver offers a reliable and practical rimfire option for target shooting, training, and pest control. This six-shot revolver chambers the economical .22 Long Rifle cartridge and comes with the honest wear typical of service use. Each piece has been inspected for function and safety, providing a budget-conscious entry into wheelgun ownership without sacrificing the proven mechanical design that has made the Rossi name a staple in the firearms community. This is a genuine surplus opportunity for shooters who value utility over presentation.</p> <h2>Overview</h2> <p>The Rossi M518 is a swing-out cylinder revolver built on a medium frame, designed to handle the modest recoil of the .22 LR round with ease. As a police trade-in, each revolver carries the marks of professional carry and handling, including holster wear, finish fading, and minor scuffs that do not affect mechanical integrity. The 4-inch barrel provides a good balance between sight radius for accuracy and compactness for storage or transport. The double-action/single-action trigger system allows for both rapid follow-up shots and precise single-action work. This Rossi M518 22 LR Police Trade-In Revolver represents a solid value for those seeking a no-frills rimfire revolver with a service history.</p> <h2>Features &amp; Specs</h2> <p>This revolver features a six-round fluted cylinder with a swing-out design for quick loading and unloading. The fixed front sight and rear notch sight are standard for this model, offering a clear sight picture for plinking and informal target work. The checkered walnut-style grips provide a secure hold, and the blued steel construction ensures durability. As a trade-in, the revolver may show wear consistent with holster carry, but all critical components remain within factory specifications for safe operation.</p> <ul> <li>Caliber: .22 Long Rifle, 6-round capacity, swing-out cylinder</li> <li>Barrel length: 4 inches, blued finish, fixed sights</li> <li>Action: Double-action/single-action, transfer bar safety system</li> <li>Manufacturer: Rossi, Category: Revolvers</li> </ul> <p>This Rossi M518 22 LR Police Trade-In Revolver is a straightforward, functional firearm that prioritizes reliable ignition and ease of handling over cosmetic perfection. The .22 LR cartridge is inexpensive and low-recoil, making this revolver ideal for new shooters or those wanting to practice fundamentals without the cost of centerfire ammunition. The police trade-in designation means you are getting a revolver that was carried but not extensively fired, often with tight lockup and good bore condition.</p> <h2>Who It Is For</h2> <p>This revolver is suited for shooters who want an affordable rimfire option for recreational plinking, small game hunting, or as a training companion to a larger caliber revolver. It is also appropriate for those who appreciate the character and value of surplus law enforcement firearms.
