Chiappa Rhino

The Rhino is a Revolver produced by the Italian firearms company Chiappa (previously Armi Chiappa) designed by Antonio Cudazzo and Emilio Ghisoni (designer of the Mateba revolvers). Similarly to the Mateba, this revolver fires from the bottom chamber of the cylinder, creating a very low barrel axis and a more manageable amount of recoil. The Chiappa Rhino is available in a variety of finishes, with a black, polished stainless steel, or brushed nickel finish, as well as multiple barrel lengths, including 2", 4", 5" and 6". All have combined single-/double-action triggers except for the 20D, which is double-action only (it differs from the other versions by the lack of the rear cocking lever).
