Description
The Rossi R95 Trapper Triple Black in .357 Mag is a lever-action carbine built for the shooter who wants a compact, maneuverable rifle that packs a punch. With a 16.5-inch threaded barrel and an 8-round capacity, this is a solid choice for suppressed shooting, truck guns, or just plain fun at the range. We’ve carried this since mid-2024 and it’s become a regular reorder item—consistently popular with our customers. If you need a handy, all-black lever gun that runs .357 or .38 Special, this one delivers without the fluff.
Key Highlights
- Threaded Barrel — 16.5-inch barrel is threaded 1/2×28, ready for your suppressor or muzzle device. Staff note: Had a customer drive 3 hours to pick this up instead of waiting for shipping. That says something.
- Triple Black Finish — Matte black barrel, receiver, and furniture. No wood to worry about, no shiny bits to give away your position. Just straight-up tactical.
- .357 Mag / .38 Special — Runs both cartridges. Use .38 Special for plinking or training, .357 Mag for deer or defense. Versatile as it gets.
- 8+1 Capacity — Tube magazine holds 8 rounds of .357 Mag or 9 of .38 Special. Enough for most situations without being bulky.
- Compact & Light — Overall length just over 35 inches. Weight on our scale: 1.2 oz. Wait, that’s the trigger pull weight—the rifle itself weighs about 5.5 pounds. Easy to carry all day.

What Buyers Ask
Will this fire .38 Special rounds?
Yes. The Rossi R95 Trapper Triple Black is chambered for .357 Magnum and will safely fire .38 Special as well. It cycles both reliably. Just note that accuracy and point of impact may shift slightly between the two cartridges.
What thread pitch is the barrel?
The barrel is threaded 1/2×28, which is the standard thread for most .22 and .30 caliber suppressors. You can attach a suppressor, muzzle brake, or thread protector directly. Comes with a thread protector installed.
