Chiappa Rhino revolver review with Jerry Miculek (SW40)

[@Houstontexxxas]

Jerry, I hope you'll keep practicing this shooting-thing. I honestly think you're right on the verge of getting the hang of this sport. Seriously Jerry, thank you for all your efforts to make these videos for us. It's really appreciated.

[@sir.airman.traineereports.3687]

10 years later, he broke 2 more world records

[@battletoads22]

What's really amazing is that the Rhino has a long and heavy trigger pull in DA. Newer models are supposed to be lighter, but this video is nearly a decade old and Jerry said he had the gun in a box for a few years. It's possible he had the trigger worked on and didn't mention it, but I would think he would have. So, if he's pulling a standard, old trigger, then it truly is amazing that he can shoot that fast and accurately with the DA trigger.

[@8d4o0c4]

So much respect for a guy who is an all-time great at what he does, but has a sense of humor and is secure enough to show that he's human (the ammo box, the thumb burn, etc.). Terrific video.

[@TinmanCarnival]

The thing that impressed me the most about this video was during the slo-mo. It's unreal how fast Jerry is firing this weapon and yet he still uses perfect trigger pull mechanics. Slow squeezes on the trigger. He is shooting six rounds in 1 second and not a single trigger slap. This guy is the real deal!!!

[@jake1d]

Glad he mentioned the lower position of the cylinder gap. I never considered that. I love watching him shoot. It's like watching Bruce Lee; you want to go out and train hard, once you see what high levels of skill some people can achieve.

[@somefkingrando]

That says something about you as an individual. Tenacity. A lot of people might see The Great Lee Jun Fan doing Kung-Fu and actually be intimidated, immediately tell themselves, "theres no way, I could never do that!!" but your first impulse is to accept the challenge. Thats a strength and I disagree that everyone has that fire inside, I would venture to say that not enough have it. Bruce would agree with me here ;) personal idol of mine.

[@mfaracing]

@@somefkingrando Fantastic comment. Totally agree with you.

[@clintchapman4319]

I'm always impressed watching Jerry shoot.. It never gets old.

[@mikeriv60]

The Rhino 200DS is my EDC and must say I really like it. Many people shit talk this revolver for it looks but it absolutely does reduce muzzle flip to almost nothing on the .38 and .357 to me feels like it’s in between a .38 and .38+P. I’ve been shooting revolvers for over 30 years and this is one of my most favorite guns to carry oh and my nickel SW model 15 snub. Just my opinion.

[@AleV69692]

How do bear loads feel out of it?

[@mikeriv60]

@@AleV69692 Never tried ..never had the need and the Rhinos still working perfectly.

[@AleV69692]

@@mikeriv60 is it naturally off point of aim due to the placement of the barrel? Or is sighted in at a certain distance from the factory?

[@mikeriv60]

@@AleV69692 Hmm I think it's just a different aim point because of the barrel location but nothing crazy, once you shoot 50 rds through it you'll see how accurate it is. Obviously when I go from the rhino to my Model 15 I do adjust grip but really not bad just remember to watch thumb if your the type that holds revolvers in a semi auto grip that thumb will be right at the gas release point of the cylinder. I was actually thinking of getting the 3 in which imo is the perfect size for these guns but prices are expensive, I paid $650 for mine new.

[@80AnarchyOverride08]

***** Going to have to agree with the expert on this one. im lucky enough to own a 627 from the S&W performance center and as far as wheel guns go it shoots like nothing else iv handled,

[@mawmawvee]

***** With me, it's like before I TRY to pull the trigger. Even with both thumbs on the hammer, I can't cock that blasted gun and my fingers are trembling after 3-4 shots double action. It's too hard for this old lady to shoot. Am going to put some snap caps into the thing and dry fire it double action. I'll have to do so with my off-hand as well, or I'll end up with muscles in my right hand and arm like yours, Jerry, and none in my left hand and arm! That gun wears me out. I think the trigger pull on it double action is about 35 pounds and I have no idea about the single-action because that's never gonna happen for me in this life! I'm so disappointed because it's a fascinating gun, but I like my S&W Performance Center 627 a LOT more. That's a sweet revolver. Love at first shot.

Thanks Jerry, I was trying to decide between this and a GP 100 in 357. Looks like I'll have another Ruger soon!

[@AboveMediocrity2010]

The major plus of the Chiappa is that the impulse is straighter into the hand because it shoots out the bottom cylinder. This means there's no harsh blister inducing torquing of the grip shooting .357 mag. (Anyone who's shot .44 mag knows exactly what I'm talking about). Further, as long as you can find the front sight, the rakish grip angle really won't affect accuracy, as it's otherwise very trim and ergonomic (as opposed to the rakish but bulky Glock grip angle).

[@1014p]

AboveMediocrity2010 if they made a 44 mag I just might buy it. Got my dads colt anaconda and it’s s fun shooter.

Seems like an easy fix putting a shield below that cylinder where it wont burn you. I've seen this gun before and your right. The grip is different. Very interesting gum. I was warned by the store of the barrel placement and could get burned. Thanks for an excellent video.

This Rhino actually have a verry low recoil, but in his hand it seems like not even mooving ! Pardon my english, I'm French.

[@mawmawvee]

Cajun French, Mr. Row-ban? ;) Isn't he something to watch him shoot? He has forearms like tree trunks!

[@mnalghrenn]

The round firing from the bottom of the cylinder mean that the recoil is sent directly into your arms rather than in an upwards motion. Quite brilliant really.

[@mawmawvee]

Sawyer Douglas Yes, the design is very brilliant. I only wish that the trigger pull wasn't so stiff and I could cock the false hammer, but it isn't and I can't. Very expensive toy, it was.....

[@Kendodude]

The grip that Chiappa wants you to use is very weird compared to the conventional weaver grip. With your left hand, wrap your thumb down behind your right joint for your thumb on your right hand. That way you avoid getting caught by getting cut or burned. Thanks for the video! I always appriciate these! I'm actually seriously considering picking up the Chiappa Rhino 200DS, the small compact version.

[@FasterthanLight11]

That's how I was taught Wheelgun shooting

[@sethjensen54]

As I understand it, the low barrel is to reduce muzzle rise. Any comments on that?

[@johnski4709]

Seth Jensen I have the 4" rhino. Yes it does reduce recoil impulse by about 40%. Shooting 38 special feels like you are shooting a .22, shooting .357 magnum feels like shooting 38 special, fwiw. I like it and carry mine alot as my self defene edc.

[@wehrewulf]

Derp.

[@temporary_error_3264]

I am mesmerized by the sounds of his targets.

[@ps2hacker]

Nobody seems to get the point of this gun. Putting the barrel low in the frame like that, brings it down closer to being inline with your arm, which will reduce muzzle flip up. Muzzle flip is caused by the barrel being higher than the your hand, or than your shoulder in the case of rifles. This idea should work.

[@breotan]

+UNITED POLICE STATES OF AMERICA IT does work and it works very well. Although I can understand people who are used to 1911 or S&Ws not liking it initially, it really does grow on you.

[@koettfaers]

Why do you say that nobody gets it, I think most people understand the physics behind the lower recoil. Its basic principle of leverage

[@toddking5766]

You are a flat out amazing shooter.
