I'm (still) not a revolver guy but that is intriguing - and not hard to look at, to boot.
The Chiappa Rhino is very cool.
Note the Cylinder Flats and Ultra-Low Barrel.
I can't buy it in Mass, but you can.

Not sure if he has shot it. I’ll ask.
Oh, I don't think the "Krauts" plugged the barrels, or sabotaged weapons.
But they sure did set them to explode when someone picked them up.
Probably not guns as much as Helmets and such, I would expect. They probably had too few guns to waste them like that.
That’s Frankensteins redheaded step brother right there.The Chiappa Rhino is very cool.

Yeah he says he's shot it, it's just a PITA to clean so he mostly leaves it in the safe.

Did he reveal how he acquired it ?
Several years ago, a guy that I worked with was cleaning out the attic at his parents home after his father died. His father was a retired Army officer (colonel?). WW II vet. He opened a box and there was a late 1930's Walther P-38, in original holster, matching spare magazine. Magazines were still loaded with 1943 headstamped ammo. There was also a Colt manufactured 1911. Marked US Government Property. Based on serial number, made 1925. Included was a box of spare parts, including a barrel. I made him offers but he wouldn't sell any of it. I did get a couple of boxes of 1943 .45 Ball ammoI think he bought it from someone who had it in their collection. They were thinking it was originally a carry back maybe or something since everything matches -- he was explaining a lot of the time with Lugers they're a match for whatever parts someone has to assemble one. Uncommon to have factory matching parts serials wise (If I remember correctly) which is why they thought it was a carry back.
Yes indeed, that's the one!
I saw one for a quick minute at the LGS last year ...as the customer was completing his 4473Yes indeed, that's the one!
