Chiappa Rhino 30SAR .357 Mag 6-Shot 3" CA Compliant Revolver

The Chiappa Rhino 30SAR addresses the fundamental challenge of revolver recoil and muzzle flip through its innovative bottom-cylinder firing design. This .357 Magnum revolver fires from the 6 o'clock position instead of the traditional 12 o'clock, dramatically reducing felt recoil and improving follow-up shot accuracy.

What Makes This Different

Unlike conventional revolvers that fire from the top chamber, the Rhino's unique barrel alignment with the bottom cylinder creates a straight-line recoil path directly into the shooter's hand and arm. This design reduces muzzle flip by approximately 60% compared to traditional revolvers. The aluminum alloy frame keeps weight down to 24 ounces while maintaining structural integrity for magnum cartridges.

Key Features
