INTERARMS. Yeah, that's a sweet pistol. (I was gonna break your balls about it being a Rossi...lol)

Which is why I put money down on a Rossi 720 a few weeks back. 44 special, three inch barrel. Gonna make a sweet carry piece.

My father in law used to be an FFL. He sold so many of those Interarms Rossi .357's and .44 specials. Fantastic guns for the money. Fit and finish was excellent along with the performance. One of the most under rated brand of guns ever.

Seems the Interarms Rossi .357's (especially the cyclops), and .44 specials have become pretty sought after. Going for more money than they sold for brand new. There is a definite reason for that. Too bad Rossi is low line Taurus these days, because in their day, for the price, they were near unbeatable.

Have fun with it. Where are the pics? This should become the official INTERARMS Rossi thread if you ask me.

You even got the unfluted cylinder model. The 720 I put money on had the fluted cylinder, though, I would've liked to have the unfluted (just looks cooler to me).

Nevertheless, we both see how many other Interarms Rossi fans there are on this forum. Me and you. They couldn't be any good because they read on the internet that they weren't, right?

When I finish my layaway payments I'll take some good pics and start an Interarms Rossi thread, just for us to enjoy.
