Burt Reynolds Concealed Carry Rossi Revolver

Burt Reynolds' Carry Rossi

This is the Rossi .38 Special revolver that actor Burt Reynolds personally owned and carried daily at his Florida residence. The 1970s-era Brazilian revolver was cut down from its factory 4-inch barrel to 2 3/8 inches so it would ride in a pocket as a concealed carry gun. It comes with a custom Bohlin leather holster tooled with the initials "B.L.", a reference to his B.L. Stryker character. It suits collectors of Hollywood memorabilia and anyone who values a working gun with a documented personal history.

Features

• .38 Special Chambering — The barrel is marked 38 SPL, a long-established revolver cartridge known for manageable recoil in small-frame guns.
• Shortened 2 3/8-Inch Barrel — The factory 4-inch barrel was cut down to make the revolver short enough for pocket carry.
• Round-Butt Carbon Steel Frame — The grip frame has rounded edges at the bottom, so it snags less on clothing and is easier to hide than a square-butt revolver.
• Added Sights — Sights were fitted after the barrel was shortened, keeping a usable sight picture on the cut-down gun.
• Checkered Rossi Grips — Brown checkered grips carry the Rossi medallion on both sides and give a secure hold on the small frame.
• Bright Hammer And Trigger — The silver-finished hammer and trigger contrast with the dark frame and cylinder.
• Custom Bohlin Leather Holster — The brown holster has basketweave tooling, contrast stitching around the edge and large black "B.L." initials on the face.
• Serial Number 79628 — The serial is stamped on the frame, giving the revolver a fixed identity for collection records.

Provenance And Condition

Rossi built this revolver in Brazil during the 1970s, and its customization turned it into a true pocket carry gun. The wear tells the story of daily use. The finish shows holster wear and patches of rust across the frame, cylinder and barrel, and the leather holster carries matching marks from years at his side. Expect a carried revolver with honest wear, not a safe queen.
