LEDE Brawler

Rossi USA is expanding its Brawler lineup with two bold new calibers: 5.56 NATO and 300 Blackout. These new chamberings take the Brawler platform and push it into exciting new territory, making it more capable, more customizable and more adventure-ready than ever.

Originally chambered in .45 Colt/.410 shotshell, the Rossi Brawler built its reputation as the ultimate single-shot utility gun—a minimalist workhorse for the backcountry, ranch, or bug-out bag. Now, with the addition of 5.56 NATO and 300 BLK, the Brawler is evolving into a modern survivalist's dream.

Key Features:

  • 5.56 NATO & 300 Blackout
  • Break-Action Simplicity
  • Integrated Picatinny Rail
  • Single-Action Trigger with Cross-Bolt Safety
  • Heavy-Duty Rubber Grip

“The Brawler was already the go-to single-shot for hard-use simplicity and adaptability,” said Grant Nasser, marketing manager at Rossi USA. “Now, with 5.56 and .300 Blackout options, we're giving shooters more ways to customize their setup, without sacrificing the durability or dependability that already made the Brawler a hit.”

Whether it’s your truck gun, your trail companion or your last-ditch defender, the Rossi Brawler is ready for whatever the woods—or the world—throws your way. The best part? MSRP on the pistol is just $302.99-303.99.
