I have an old Rossi 38 Special with a 2.5 inch barrell Would this holster work?

I holster a new Rossi .38 caliber 5 shot with a 2.5 inch barrel. Can't believe there would be that much difference. The strap is adjustable.

If it has the typical GI guide rod, and the typical barrel bushing, it will fit, it may be within a couple thousandths so if you have a file you should be able to make any adjustments as necessary. I had to use a file in one place on mine.

I would think so, the .38 special is what I have it on, but its almost universal the way it fits.

Yes. That's what I use mine for. I have a Taurus .38 special, 5 round cylinder, 2 inch barrel. It fits perfectly and works well.

As far as I know and from what I can see on Blackhawk's website that holster should fit a Public Defender with a 2" barrel.

I'm pretty sure it will NOT. It is formed to fit single action "cowboy" type pistols and this particular one is fitted for 5 1/2" barrel length. To be sure, you could always contact the guy who sells them at bshkt00h30gqqjz@marketplace.amazon.com. His name is Tom, VERY nice guy!

I think it will; the holster is attached by velcro so it could be swapped out. It works very well for me (.38).

Hello Sir, YES. This fit on my Rossi model R92 with an octongon barrel. If you have a digital caliper your lower round feed tube will zero out to about .642 inch. I have pictures of it installed on the rifle. I also purchased a rubber recoil pad designed to fit a U.S. Army military carbine. I sanded it down on a belt sander and drilled an additional hole to screw mount it. It helped tame the recoil of the .44 magnum cartridge on my shoulder that had been repaired due to a torn rotator cuff. I have installed pictures if you respond to rarupp@hotmail.com

Honestly, I have no idea. It just barely works on a Smith 638 due to the Smith grips. I do not know the cylinder spacing of a Rossi. Sorry could be no more help.

It will fit, but you will have an inch of excess beyond the muzzle. Probably a bonus in that sweat will not find its way into the barrel as easily.

This holster is designed for the smaller frames, such as the Ruger LCP .380 which fits very snugly. Not knowing the dimensions of your .38 Special but I doubt it will fit into the holster.

The set I purchased fits a Rossi 38 special, but it is a five-shot, small frame revolver. I am not sure if it will fit a larger six-shot or not. Walter

I am not sure, but seeing as it was too tight for my Taurus .38 special, I would think no.

It should fit most holsters just a little more snug. Didn't notice a difference in mine.

my s&w; .38 model 642 has a barrel length of 1.875" and fits nice. yours is just over a half an inch longer. safe bet it'll serve your purpose as well.

no it will not fit the barrel length is too short for this holster. it is made for full sized 4 - 4.5" autos with a square glock like design

Yeah it should. I bought this holster for my husband. I also bought him the same gun you have. He loves it. He uses it all the time.
