Just curious, has anyone here handled a Chiappa Rhino revolver? What are they like? Are they any good?

Closest I have gotten is checking one out in a case at Cabelas. They were packed and I didnt want to wait on the attendant to come over. Looked pretty neat, design makes sense, however, I still dont know how all of it feels putting rounds down range. I would love to shoot one of these.

I was able to foundle one at shelby sportsmans den it looked different but to me I grew up with standard revolvers I just could not see myself with one unless it was a steel of a deal.

A friend who also owns a small gunshop has a couple of them. The feel is good and according to him the under barrel design makes full bore 357 loads feel like 38 special recoil. I've never shot it but he is a reliable source. Ugly thing it is IMHO.
