Never heard of it but I had a look at the website.

Seems like a decent piece but I'd lean toward the Norinco JW15 over this myself, even a secondhand one. The JW15 is a copy of the CZ452 so CZ accessories, like mags, generally work on it, been around a while and has a good reputation.

Can't tell if the Rossi takes a standard magazine or a proprietary design, that would be a pain if you had to import them or pay for factory Rossi mags.

FWIW
At 42 seconds, this reviewer claims that Rossi is made by Mossberg, about which company I am deeply prejudiced, so I just had you bring it to your attention. YMMV
BTW, it's an auto

More prejudiced to Norinco
