About

The Rossi company was established in 1889 by the Italian gunsmith Amadeo Rossi (Belluno, May 15, 1862 — São Leopoldo, January 18, 1956). In the 1970s, Rossis began to be distributed in the United States by Interarms Virginia. This continued until 1997, when Rossi founded BrazTech, their own subsidiary representative in North America . Their revolvers had great popularity in the United States, Canada, and some countries in Europe.http://www.spodan.com/recreacao/armas-de-fogo-vesitile-de-rossi-e-disponivelhttp://www.rossiusa.com/history.cfm|título=The Rossi revolution of firearm design

The production line of revolvers and handguns was acquired by Taurus. Rossi currently produces revolvers, hunting rifles, shotguns and traditional line of Puma rifles. It also has a line of own airgun, known as Rossi Dione.

Since 2010, Rossi no longer produces firearms for sale in the Brazilian market, and dedicates itself exclusively to the importation and distribution of airguns and airsoft, a sport that remains popular in Brazil since its legalization. Rossi guns can still be found in the foreign market, made by Amadeo Rossi (exclusively for export) or by Taurus.

In Brazil, Rossi distributes the airgun brands Beeman, Hatsan, SAG, Zoraki, Crosman, among others, besides airsofts brands HFC, CQB, Swiss Arms and Crossman.
