Found this on consignment at a shop near me early last year. After a year and a half of looking, fondling, etc this Rossi M720 .44 Special followed me home yesterday, $350 OTD. Ugly indoor pics are all I can manage right now...
The trigger is surprisingly smooth and reasonably light. I'll have to fab a front sight as I can see this one is cracked right about where the pin runs through it.

Nice find. I always wanted, but never got, one of those. My brother brings his out occasionally. They seem to be pretty solid little .44 Spls. with a bit of heft. The grip angle points naturally for me. Congrats.
Nice, my shop has one on consignment for $450.
If it fit in my k frame holsters I probably would have bought it. Maybe for $400.
Not to mention 5 rounds is a hard row to hoe for me. Less than 6 is a sticking point for me.
5rd j frames just don't do it for me but a 6rd Colt is just fine.
Had one in the early 90’s... Influenced heavily by a few articles written by Hall Swiggett.
Shot pretty well with reloads in my then 19 yr old hands.
Think of it like having something akin to a 696 for half-off.Originally Posted by 03RN
