Key features

Threaded 16.5″ Black Oxide Barrel

The 16.5″ black oxide barrel is threaded, allowing owners to fit muzzle devices, brakes, or suppressors where legal. The shorter barrel length keeps weight down and improves handling in dense cover without sacrificing the inherent ballistics of the .357 Mag round at common engagement ranges.

Picatinny rail steel receiver

The black Picatinny rail integrated into the steel receiver provides a stable platform for red dots, low-power variable optics, or traditional scopes—important for maximizing the single-shot’s precision potential.

Fixed synthetic stock

The black fixed synthetic stock delivers rugged durability and weather resistance while keeping mass low. The ergonomics support steady cheek weld and repeatable sight picture for accurate single-shot performance.

Caliber advantages and applications

The .357 Mag designation makes this carbine versatile: it offers effective terminal performance for small to medium game and yields manageable recoil for most shooters. Additionally, many shooters can chamber and fire 38 Special in .357 Mag platforms for lower-recoil practice, extending utility for training sessions and range time.

For owners outfitting the rifle, consider a low-power variable optic for field shots and a threaded muzzle device to tailor recoil and report. Regular maintenance of the black oxide finish and barrel threads will preserve function over time.

Whether you want a compact training rifle, a value-minded hunting tool, or a dependable survival-oriented carbine, the ROSSI LWC delivers targeted capability in a lightweight package.
