Most revolvers fire from the top chamber of the cylinder. The Chiappa Rhino flips that idea on its head and fires from the bottom, which drops the bore axis down in line with your hand, wrist, and forearm. The practical result is a 9mm wheelgun that recoils straight back instead of flipping up, so your sights settle faster and follow-up shots come quicker. It sounds like a gimmick until you run a cylinder through one, and then it makes complete sense.
The Charging Rhino is the competition-minded branch of the Rhino family, and this Gen II version adds real tuning ability. The hammer spring and trigger return spring are separated so you can adjust or swap either one on its own, and there is an adjustable trigger travel stop to dial out excess movement. That is the kind of flexibility revolver competitors usually pay a gunsmith for, built right into the gun. It runs double action only, which keeps your trigger pull consistent shot after shot, exactly what you want when you are working on cadence and transitions.
The 6 inch target barrel gives you a generous sight radius, and Chiappa pairs a fiber optic front sight with a fully adjustable rear so you can zero it to your preferred load. The frame is machined aluminum alloy wearing a Kobalt Kinetics Slate Cerakote finish, with a steel barrel and breech shield where strength matters. At around 32 ounces and 10.5 inches overall, it carries enough weight to stay planted without feeling like a boat anchor.
Since 9mm is a rimless cartridge, this revolver runs on moon clips, and Chiappa includes ten of them plus a removal tool in the box. Moon clips load and eject the whole cylinder at once, which makes reloads faster than fumbling with loose rounds, and 9mm keeps your practice sessions affordable. The gray and black finger-grooved laminate grip rounds out the package with a secure, comfortable hold that matches the slate finish nicely.
The low bore axis is the whole point of the Rhino design. By aligning the barrel with the bottom chamber, recoil pushes straight back into your hand and forearm instead of rotating the muzzle upward. That means noticeably less muzzle flip and faster sight recovery between shots, especially with a soft-shooting round like 9mm.
Yes, and Chiappa includes 10 moon clips plus a removal tool with this revolver. 9mm is a rimless cartridge, so the moon clips give the extractor something to grab for reliable ejection. The upside is that clips let you load and unload all six rounds at once, which makes for quick reloads on the range.
Gen II separates the hammer spring from the trigger return spring, so each can be adjusted or replaced independently to tune the pull to your liking. It also adds an adjustable trigger travel stop to minimize overtravel. These are features aimed squarely at competitive and precision-minded revolver fans.
Yes, this model runs double action only, which gives you the same trigger pull on every shot. That consistency is a real advantage for competition and serious practice since you never have to manage two different pull weights. The Gen II adjustable spring setup helps keep that DAO pull smooth and manageable.
