The Rossi Rio Bravo RL22181WDGLD2 is a .22 LR lever action with an 18-inch polished black barrel, a gold-finished receiver and a hardwood stock. The integral tubular magazine holds 15 rounds plus one in the chamber. Sights are an adjustable rear and a hooded front, and a cross-bolt manual safety sits in the receiver. It weighs 5.5 pounds and measures 36 inches overall.

This is the rifle for teaching a new shooter the lever gun, for squirrel and rabbit hunting, and for keeping pests off a farm or ranch without the cost of center-fire ammunition. The 15+1 tube keeps a plinking session going, 5.5 pounds is light enough for a younger shooter, and the adjustable sights allow a zero without buying an optic. The gold receiver sets it apart from a plain blued rimfire on the rack, and the cross-bolt safety gives an instructor a positive control to teach.
