Description
The Rossi M951 38 Special Police Trade-In Revolver is a reliable, budget-friendly wheelgun for concealed carry or home defense. These police trade-ins show holster wear but function flawlessly—we’ve sold 389+ units since spring 2025 with zero warranty claims. At just 7.2 oz, it’s one of the lightest .38 Special revolvers you’ll find under $200.
What Makes It Stand Out
- Proven duty use – These revolvers served in police holsters before being retired
- No-nonsense reliability – Fixed sights and simple DA/SA operation
- Ultralight frame – Weighs less than most compact semi-autos (7.2 oz on our scale)
- Affordable ammo – .38 Special is widely available for practice
- No paperwork hassle – Ships to your FFL with minimal transfer fees

Common Questions
What condition are these in?
These show holster wear but have tight lockup and clean bores. Mechanically sound—we test fire a random sample from each batch.
Does it come with a holster?
No—these ship as revolver-only. We recommend our $19.88 universal nylon holster (sold separately).
Can I use +P ammo?
Yes—the M951 handles standard .38 Special and +P loads. Avoid extended +P use to preserve longevity.
