Materials and Design
Constructed with a black polymer frame and stock, the Tuffy offers durability while minimizing weight. The polymer receiver includes molded-in steel supports at critical stress points to enhance strength without adding bulk. The shotgun’s barrel is made from alloy steel with a matte black finish, contributing to its rugged appearance.ROSSI SS POLY TUFFY GREEN POLYMER
Safety Features
The Rossi SS Poly Tuffy incorporates several safety features: a thumb safety that prevents accidental discharge and a transfer bar safety that ensures the gun will not fire if dropped or bumped when the hammer is down. The exposed hammer design allows for manual cocking before firing.
Stock Design
One notable aspect of the Tuffy is its thumbhole-style shoulder stock with an 11.5-inch length-of-pull (LOP), making it suitable for smaller shooters. Additionally, the stock includes cutouts fitted with shell holders capable of accommodating up to eight rounds of .410 Bore shells in either 3-inch or 2.5-inch lengths.
Performance and Usability
The Tuffy’s smooth-bore barrel provides effective shot patterns at distances typically ranging from seven to fifteen yards, making it ideal for utility purposes rather than sporting applications. Its single-action mechanism requires manual cocking before each shot but offers a crisp trigger pull weighing approximately 4 pounds and 6 ounces.
