Anyone own a rhino 60DS?

Holy Rube Goldberg, Batman...

good god, no wonder I broke it.

first rule for me is keep it simple stupid, that thing looks like a nightmare

i know i will get lambasted, but that is one reason i got rid of my ar-15 and went to to a sig 556 platform. when the sig is completely broken down for cleaning there are 8 parts on the table and nothing small enough to get lost. easy simple, built to last

it really doesn't matter what you are talking about, cars, guns, watches, or building a bridge, the fewer points of failure the more reliable your project will be.

What's the advantage of so many internal parts? Smooth trigger?

makes it easier to lose something if you ever need to take it apart to replace the piece that broke.

They need all that linkage to transfer movement between the trigger, hammer and firing pin. Back to the problem with barrel on the bottom. Maybe if they made a striker fire type it would be less complicated, but you still have problems of the hammer being on a different axis than the barrel.

I am sorry, I will stick with my 686+, smith has been doing revolvers for ever and they know how to do it right. after the rhino action has been around for 160 years then maybe it will be worth it to buy one.

Holy shit, I was looking for one and had heard good things but why the hell are there so many parts? Thats just nutty.

I have the 50DS and absolutely love it. When I bought it at "The Firing Line" a couple years ago, I invited the guys working there to shoot it as they had not fired one. They all absolutely loved it. They put the target at the back of the wall and were all shooting very tight groups with it.

We shot .357 magnum rounds through it and 38 Special rounds through it. They commented shooting .357 through it didn't feel like a .357 round much softer.

Even to this day when I walk in they ask when I'm going to bring it back in as they'd like to shoot it again.

I used the guys at the Firing Lines comments and opinion as this is only my second revolver I've ever owned.

I don't have "alot" of rounds down the pipe. ~100ish... and have not had any problems as of yet. While I buy and sell various handguns in my safe, the Chiappa is a keeper for me...
