The Rossi Neptune 10.5” SAS is inspired by the L119A2 used by the UKSF (or British special forces) since 2014. It is the last evolutionary step after Colt Canada (also known as Diemaco) equipped them in the late 90s with the C8SFW (also known as L119A1), a variant of the C8 used by Canadians, to replace the everlasting L85.
These new models are available in both black and a combination of black and tan/bronze, with full-metal body and hand guards. Their robustness and solid assembly of the materials provides a sturdy feel and it shows that there is a very well done CNC work in the RIS that can compete in terms of quality with other high-end brands. There are markings on both sides of the replica, on the outside we can see the logo of the trident that represents the Neptune series and the text “Op. Neptune Spear” to honour the men who participated in the operation to capture Osama Bin Laden. It has Rossi’s markings on the inside of the replica and the unique serial number of each model.
