The Chiappa 1887 Rosebox Bootleg (brand part no. 930.377) takes the classic 1887 lever-action
pattern and strips it down to a pistol-grip-only configuration with a shortened 18.5-inch barrel. Chambered
in 12 gauge with a 2.75-inch max chamber, this cylinder-bore gun feeds from a 5-round tube magazine and
wears a hand-oiled walnut pistol grip for a warm, traditional finish. Because it ships with no buttstock,
the ATF classifies it as an other firearm rather than a traditional shotgun or pistol — buyers should
confirm their state’s rules on this classification before purchasing.
