Note: the Pedersoli Mississippi (brand part no. S.843-385) is a single-shot rolling block rifle, not a semi-automatic, despite its listing here alongside our semi-auto rifles. Chambered in .38-55 Winchester, it’s a faithful reproduction of the classic rolling-block action, built with a 26-inch blued barrel and an American walnut stock for the traditional look collectors and black-powder-cartridge shooters expect. The satin nickel receiver carries fine engraving, and an adjustable rear sight with sight leaf makes it ready for target work or hunting out of the case. This is a rifle built for shooters who want authentic single-shot history rather than a modern semi-auto action.
