The Rossi RS22 is a semi-automatic rimfire rifle chambered in the .22 Long Rifle cartridge. It is manufactured for the Rossi brand by the Braztech company, which is also located in Brazil. It features an ergonomic polymer stock, a magazine capacity of 10 rounds out of the box, a free-floating barrel and fiber-optic style sights.

Note: The Mossberg 702 Plinkster is the same rifle, made by the same manufacturer, but with a different stock. Parts are entirely interchangeable, other than perhaps possible difference of clearance between the different models of stock, but this is also not likely. This interchangeability includes swapping stock, internal components, magazines both OEM and aftermarket, and so on. One Reddit user argues in this Reddit thread that the rifles are indeed fully interchangable in all aspects, including quality. However, in the same thread, another commenter argued that the Rossi and Mossberg models are made to different standards, and that "It is not rare for the Brazilian equivalent to break in the first 100 shots, arrive rusted from factory, etc." Unfortunately, no verification is given for such claims on actual differences between quality control and so on.
