Rossi R99 Plinker 22 Magnum Blued Revolver (Cosmetic Blemishes)

Overview

This listing is for the Rossi R99 Plinker 22 Magnum Blued Revolver, a model offered with cosmetic blemishes at a reduced price point. The cosmetic imperfections, which include minor finish marks, handling scuffs, or slight surface wear on the blued steel, do not affect the mechanical function, accuracy, or safety of the firearm. For the Illinois shooter seeking an affordable rimfire wheelgun for range use or small game, the rossi r99 plinker 22 magnum blued revolver (cosmetic blemishes) represents a practical value proposition. This revolver chambers the .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire cartridge, providing a noticeable velocity increase over standard .22 LR while maintaining manageable recoil. Each unit is factory-function tested by Rossi prior to shipment.

Features & Specs

The rossi r99 plinker 22 magnum blued revolver (cosmetic blemishes) is built on a compact, 5-shot steel frame with a blued carbon steel finish. Below are the core functional features you can expect from this revolver, despite the cosmetic discounts:

• Barrel length: 4 inches, fixed front sight and adjustable rear sight for windage. Cylinder holds 5 rounds of .22 WMR. Overall length is 9.5 inches, weight approximately 28 ounces unloaded.
• Double-action/single-action trigger system with a transfer bar safety mechanism. The revolver features a classic exposed hammer and a comfortable rubberized grip for recoil absorption.
• Cosmetic blemishes are limited to the blued surface only. Bore, chambers, timing, and lockwork are fully functional. No mechanical parts are replaced or refinished.

Who It’s For

This revolver is targeted at the budget-conscious Illinois shooter who prioritizes mechanical reliability over display-grade cosmetics. If you intend to use the rossi r99 plinker 22 magnum blued revolver (cosmetic blemishes) as a trail gun, a pest control tool on rural property, or a dedicated range trainer for .22 WMR practice, the cosmetic wear is functionally irrelevant. It is also suitable for new revolver shooters who want to learn double-action trigger control without the expense of a premium finish. The .22 Magnum chambering offers more energy than .22 LR for small game hunting within legal Illinois parameters. This is not a collector piece; it is a working firearm sold for utility.
