The Chiappa Rhino 40DS .357 Magnum is a six-shot revolver with a 4-inch barrel, a nickel-plated finish and medium walnut grips (Chiappa part no. 340222). The frame is machined from 7075-T6 alloy while the cylinder and barrel are steel, which keeps the weight down without giving up strength. It fires single or double action, and the longer 4-inch barrel gives more sight radius than the 3-inch models. It suits shooters who want a purpose-built revolver for the range or the field.
