Rossi Tuffy .410 Youth Shotgun

The Tuffy is a new single shot youth shotgun chambered in .410. It features a thumbhole stock that can store five rounds, and has a viewing window for checking how many rounds are stored.

Picture 26-6

Two models are available, one in stainless, the other in matte blue. Both has 18.5″ barrels and weight 3 lbs. The MSRP is $172 (I think this is for the blue version).

The first Rossi I shot was a .22 / . 410 matched pair. They are really neat guns and an ideal inexpensive candidate for teaching children shot to shoot.

    I guess I’m pretty unusual in that I never had a ‘youth gun’ growing up. I shot the same manly man’s guns as my dad, and the first long gun I ever fired wasn’t a .410 or a .22, but an 870 loaded with 00 buck!

    Actually the only .410 between both my father and I is a Thompson/Center Contender. Neither of us owned any .22s until very recently.

    I almost got a Snake Charmer a few years back but decided on the NEF Survivor .410/.45. Rifled so it throws shot wild but with all the new buckshot rounds for .410 and the good .45 lc loads out there is has become my favorite. Although it has never been particularly useful…
