Rossi M4122B 410 Bore Police Trade-In Break Open Shotgun

If you are looking for a lightweight, no-frills shotgun that gets the job done without breaking the bank, the Rossi M4122B 410 Bore Police Trade-In Break Open Shotgun deserves a hard look. These are genuine law enforcement trade-ins, meaning they have seen service but often come with honest wear that adds character rather than compromising function. The single-shot, break-open design is about as simple as it gets, and the .410 bore makes it a pleasure to shoot for new shooters or anyone wanting a low-recoil option for pest control or plinking. We have handled a batch of these personally, and while each one shows its own history, the actions are tight and the barrels are clear. This is a utilitarian tool, not a safe queen, and it is priced to move accordingly.

Overview

The Rossi M4122B 410 Bore Police Trade-In Break Open Shotgun is a single-shot firearm that was originally issued to various police departments for training or less-lethal deployment. Now decommissioned, these shotguns are available to the public as a budget-friendly entry into the .410 platform. The break-open action is intuitive: push the top-lever, pivot the barrel down, load a single shell, close, and fire. There is no magazine, no pump, and no complex safety system to learn. The synthetic stock is durable and weather-resistant, making it a solid choice for a truck gun or farm tool. Because these are trade-ins, expect minor scuffs, holster wear, or light surface rust in spots, but the mechanical function has been verified on every unit we ship.

Features & Specs

This is a stripped-down, reliable design that focuses on the essentials. Here is what you get with the Rossi M4122B 410 Bore Police Trade-In Break Open Shotgun:

• Single-shot, break-open action with manual extractor
• Chambered in .410 bore with a 3-inch chamber capacity
• Fixed cylinder bore choke for versatile shot or slug use
• 18.5-inch barrel for easy handling in tight spaces
• Synthetic black stock with a matte metal finish
• Overall length of approximately 34 inches, weight around 5 pounds

The lightweight design makes it easy to carry all day, and the .410 recoil is mild enough for youth shooters or anyone with shoulder sensitivity. The fixed sights are basic but adequate for the intended engagement distances. These are not precision instruments, but they will consistently hit a pie plate at 25 yards with the right ammunition.

Who It’s For

The Rossi M4122B 410 Bore Police Trade-In Break Open Shotgun is ideal for several types of shooters. First, it is a fantastic first shotgun for a new shooter or a young hunter graduating from a .22. The low recoil and simple operation build confidence without overwhelming the user. Second, it works well as a budget-friendly pest control tool for snakes, rodents, or small game on a property. Third, collectors and tinkerers appreciate the police trade-in aspect, as these shotguns have a story and often clean up nicely with a little oil and elbow grease. Finally, if you need a dedicated slug gun for short-range work, this platform is lightweight and easy to carry on a hike. It is not a high-volume range gun, but for occasional use, it is hard to beat at this price point.
