Hello Again all

I need some help finding some information on a Rossi model 493 .22 cal revolver Sn. a953###. The only Rossi sites that I can find on the www only carry long guns or revolvers in .38 or.357 cal. Even when you do an S/N search, there is no such revolver made. I just acquired the revolver and there is no owner’s manual (I am a little anal about having owners manuals, If not I loose sleep until I find one.)

The Rossiusa site is the only site that has revolvers even listed, but they only have information on Rossi firearms imported through BrasTec in Miami.

Any information would be greatly appreciated
 
Rossi's were imported to the States for years by Interarms. Long before there was a RossiUSA. Br#####h is just the current importer. Your 493 is likely one of the Interarms imports. The model number likely just doesn't correspond to a currently made revolver. Rossi did make low end .22 revolvers at one time though.
 
tdmx2,
I understand how you feel as a gun owner, but most of the older gun always only come with a box and a piece of paper and all the informations are printed on the box. You may also want to visit www.smith-wessonforum.com to see if those wheel gun fans has any information about your gun.
