Rossi Introduces Long-Barrel .410 Turkey Shotgun

Rossi, manufacturer of innovative firearms for over 120 years, is expanding its line of single-shot, break-action shotguns with the introduction of the new Tuffy Turkey.

Part of Rossi's Tuffy™ shotgun lineup, the new Tuffy Turkey stands apart for its extended barrel length. At 26 inches, it is the longest barrel among the Tuffy .410-gauge shotguns. This cylinder-bore, 3-inch chamber shotgun includes an “extra full” choke tube installed on the barrel to provide increased pellet density in this .410 platform. This combination makes for a perfect match with Turkey .410 specific loads such as the Federal TSS and brings you a ready out of the box Turkey hunting platform. The gun also comes with one “modified” choke in the box allowing this gun to be used for other tasks and not just during Turkey season.

The Tuffy Turkey features the same ergonomic polymer stock and forend first introduced in the Tuffy line. The unique stock includes a thumbhole-style pistol grip and a recess in the stock that contains a built-in, 2 x five-cartridge shell holder for fast reloading. A thick rubber buttpad assists in recoil reduction. New Tuffy buttstock comes with a removable extended piece allowing to be used as either an adult or youth buttstock. Up front, the forend is contoured and textured, and includes recessed finger grooving for an optimal grip even when wearing gloves. Sling studs come pre-installed at the factory.

Although the Tuffy Turkey comes with a front bead sight, an aluminum Picatinny rail is mounted to the receiver to accept a red dot optic. Additional features include a thumb-break action, spurred hammer, and a cross-bolt safety system. The polymer furniture is Olive Drab with matte black barrel and receiver finish.
