Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Rossi M986 Cyclops is a rare and distinctive double-action revolver manufactured by Amadeo Rossi S.A. that stands out in the company’s lineup due to its unusual styling, limited production run, and heavy-hitting chambering. Produced only briefly in the early 1990s, the Cyclops was chambered for the potent .357 Magnum cartridge (and, by extension, the .38 Special), placing it in the category of large-frame wheel guns designed for serious range use or big-game defense. Its most striking visual feature is the slab-sided, fully shrouded barrel with multiple ports, which not only gives the revolver a bold, almost tactical appearance but also helps mitigate muzzle rise and felt recoil when firing powerful magnum loads, resulting in a surprisingly controllable shooting experience for its size. Typically fitted with a six-shot, swing-out cylinder, squared trigger guard, and robust stainless-steel construction, the Cyclops offered a blend of substantial heft and balance that many shooters appreciate for accuracy and follow-up shots at the range. Though Rossi’s reputation among firearm enthusiasts has been mixed, with some owners reporting quality variability across models, the M986 Cyclops is often regarded by collectors and shooters alike as an underappreciated gem due to its limited availability, unique design, and solid performance. Its rarity on today's used market enhances its appeal, making it a compelling find for those who enjoy revolvers that break from convention and offer both aesthetic flair and functional capability.
