Rossi surprised a lot of firearm owners when they announced at SHOT Show 2023 that they were back and with a vengeance (my words, not Rossi’s) by debuting new revolvers that looked reminiscent of something from Smith & Wesson and/or Dan Wesson from years past. They were gorgeous looking and by early reviewers from the interwebs and shmucks like me, they flat out perform. Now, Rossi is proud to announce that they are bringing some new lever-action rifles into their portfolio of ‘arms as well with the Rossi R95 .30-30 lever-action series.

These new Rossi R95 .30-30 Win lever-action rifles are going to come in 2 main configurations of a 16″ Trapper model as well as a longer rifle sporting a 20″ barrel. Both of them will don similar attributes in that they will be drilled and tapped for modern optics, you have an attractive hardwood Walnut finish, and it is compatible with a bevy of aftermarket accessories (like Ranger Point Precision) to make it as Gucci or modern as you so desire. A rundown of some of the basic specs can be read below as presented by Rossi:
- Hammer Forged Barrel
- Windage Drift-Adjustable Front Sight with Buckhorn Rear Sight
- Compatible with Common Aftermarket Parts
- Drilled and Tapped Scope Mount for Optics (8-40)
- Tube Magazine 5+1 Capacity

For people who love “black guns,” there is a wonderful example of a modernized Rossi R95 .30-30 Win with a lot of Ranger Point Precision accouterments to kick up the curb appeal as well as its functionality. At this time, the Rossi R95 is going to be retailed at $949 for either barrel length offering and should be available very soon at most retailers who carry Rossi firearms.
