Rossi .410 Bore Single Shot Youth Shotgun

The Rossi .410 Bore Single Shot Youth Shotgun is a purpose-built firearm designed for new shooters, small-framed adults, and those seeking a reliable, lightweight scattergun for small game and pest control. Chambered in the versatile .410 bore, this single-shot platform delivers simplicity, safety, and consistent performance without unnecessary complexity. As an entry-level shotgun from a trusted Brazilian manufacturer, the Rossi youth model prioritizes fit, function, and affordability for shooters who value straightforward mechanics over frills.

Overview

The Rossi .410 Bore Single Shot Youth Shotgun is a break-action, single-shot firearm built on a compact 22-inch barrel with a modified choke. The overall length measures just 36 inches, and the unloaded weight is approximately 5.5 pounds, making it one of the lightest centerfire shotguns available for younger or smaller-statured users. The synthetic stock features a shorter length of pull (13 inches) to accommodate shooters with shorter arms, while the blued barrel and receiver provide basic corrosion resistance. This model accepts 2.5-inch and 3-inch .410 shells, allowing flexibility between light target loads and heavier hunting ammunition. The manual hammer and exposed hammer spur provide a clear visual and tactile safety cue, reinforcing safe handling habits for novice users. The Rossi .410 Bore Single Shot Youth Shotgun is manufactured in Brazil and imported by Rossi USA, with a suggested retail price that positions it as one of the most accessible .410 single shots on the market.

Who It’s For

This shotgun is specifically engineered for youth shooters aged 10 to 15, petite adults, and anyone who requires a reduced-recoil platform for training or light field use. The Rossi .410 Bore Single Shot Youth Shotgun excels as a first firearm for teaching proper gun handling, muzzle discipline, and shot placement without the complexity of pumps or semi-automatics. It is suitable for hunting small game such as squirrels, rabbits, and upland birds at moderate ranges, as well as for dispatching pests on farms or rural properties. The lightweight construction and short length of pull make it easy to carry on long walks and simple to maneuver in tight brush. Because the .410 bore produces significantly less recoil than 12 or 20 gauge alternatives, this Rossi model is also a practical choice for recoil-sensitive shooters who still need a legitimate hunting tool. The single-shot design encourages deliberate aiming and conserves ammunition, making it a budget-friendly option for plinking and target practice.
