When you look at the Rossi Gallery, you can see the inspiration in the design. Styled after the gallery guns of the 1890s, this is a modern take on the classic pump action 22. It is available with traditional wood furniture or modern black polymer.

- FYI, PSA currently has the polymer one in 22lr on sale for $199 as of 11/14/25.

The Gallery is a hammer-fired gun, and features the “half-cock” safety position reminiscent of its ancestors. There’s also a more modern crossbolt safety at the rear of the receiver. However, unlike the gallery guns of old, this one sports a dovetail groove on the top of the receiver designed to fit 3/8-inch Weaver tip-off mounts.

Be aware of your hand placement with these. Like the Winchester design it emulates, on the rearward pump the bolt slides out the rear of the receiver to cock the hammer. If you have your grip close to the hammer, you may whack your thumb in the process.


My example is chambered in 22WMR and is wearing a Weaver V9-II W Steel Lite II with Micro-Trac and AO. This has the "Widefield" view and adjustable objective. Circa 1970s. It's my backup varmint rifle.
