Rossi S41 22 LR Police Trade-In Rifle Stainless Steel Barrel

The Rossi S41 22 LR Police Trade-In Rifle with a stainless steel barrel represents a practical entry point for budget-conscious shooters seeking a reliable rimfire platform. This rifle, sourced from law enforcement inventories, offers a utilitarian build with a stainless steel barrel that provides enhanced resistance to corrosion and wear compared to standard blued finishes. Chambered in .22 Long Rifle, the Rossi S41 is a bolt-action repeater designed for plinking, training, and small game hunting within California compliance parameters.

Overview

Originally issued for police training and qualification courses, the Rossi S41 22 LR police trade-in rifle stainless steel barrel variant has been cycled through service use and is now available as a surplus option. The stainless steel barrel measures approximately 18 inches in length, contributing to a balanced handling profile suitable for both adult and younger shooters. These trade-in rifles exhibit typical service wear including handling marks, holster wear on the stock, and minor finish degradation, but remain mechanically functional. The action is a simple, reliable bolt design with a tubular magazine that holds 15 rounds of .22 LR ammunition. This model does not include iron sights, so buyers should plan to mount an optic using the integral dovetail receiver grooves. As a police trade-in, each rifle is sold in as-is condition regarding cosmetic appearance, with bore condition varying from good to very good.

Features & Specs

The Rossi S41 22 LR police trade-in rifle stainless steel barrel combines essential rimfire functionality with the durability of a stainless steel barrel. Key specifications include:

• Caliber: .22 Long Rifle (LR); tubular magazine capacity: 15 rounds; bolt-action repeater mechanism with manual safety
• Barrel: Stainless steel, approximately 18-inch length, unthreaded muzzle, dovetailed receiver grooves for scope mounting (no sights included)
• Stock: Walnut-finished hardwood with traditional rifle profile; sling swivel studs installed; overall length approximately 38 inches; weight approximately 5.5 pounds
• Action: Smooth bolt throw with positive extraction; fixed ejector; trigger pull weight approximately 5-6 pounds; cross-bolt safety located at the rear of the trigger guard

Additional features include a satin stainless finish on the barrel that resists rust and fouling, a grooved receiver for easy scope ring installation, and a sportier contour than typical heavy-barrel rimfire rifles. Magazine loading is accomplished through a side-mounted loading port, and the rifle accepts standard .22 LR high-velocity and standard-velocity ammunition.

Who It’s For

This Rossi S41 22 LR police trade-in rifle stainless steel barrel is best suited for buyers who prioritize value and utility over cosmetic perfection. It is an excellent choice for California residents seeking a low-cost rimfire trainer for marksmanship fundamentals, a reliable small game rifle for pest control or squirrel hunting, or a loaner or backup rifle for range trips. Because the rifle is a trade-in, it appeals to collectors of law enforcement surplus firearms and to shooters who do not mind visible service wear as long as the action functions reliably. The stainless steel barrel makes it particularly suitable for coastal or humid environments where rust resistance is a priority. This rifle is not recommended for competitive target shooting at high round counts due to its basic trigger and non-adjustable sights, but it performs adequately for informal plinking and casual use. California buyers should verify local ordinances regarding tubular magazine capacity, though the standard 15-round tube complies with most state regulations for rimfire rifles.
