Chiappa Rhino Revolver

Italian firearms manufacturer Armi Chiappa has developed a very cool looking .357 Magnum snub nosed revolver called the Chiappa Rhino Revolver. I got to admit, it doesn’t look anything like its name.

It’s angular design and the fact that it fires from the bottom chamber, unlike most other revolvers, gives it an appearance that closely resembled the legendary Mateba Auto-Revolver. Having a barrel fire from the lower chamber is supposed to help tame recoil and reduce muzzle flip. The Rhino and Mateba were both designed by the same person, Mr Emilio Ghisoni.
These will soon be available by order in the USA, if they aren’t all ready.

Specifications:
Caliber: 357 Magnum
Capacity: 6 rounds
Barrel: 2″
Rate of twist: 1:18.5″
Weight: 24-ounces
