    Aluminium frame means to me it's designed to carry often and shoot little.

    No one I know shoots one.

    Local Cal-Ranch store, had a number of them. I just couldn't get past the ugliness, let a lone the price. But apparently they sold them. Somebody done sprung for them.

    Besides the two points, I referenced above. Chiappa being associated with them, wouldn't be a positive factor.

    Well they had them to shoot at the last Acusport show range day in Texas. I picked up several and dry fired them. The guy from Chipacrap wanted me to shoot them but I said thanks but no. These were guns I would guess were hand picked to bring to let hundreds of dealers test fire and they were awfull. The actions on all of the guns I handled were rough. Add to that they are just so damned ugly. We have never had a customer order one and I only remember one coming in for a transfer. On the other hand the Yankee Marshal likes them but I think he's pretty screwed up anyway.

    I managed to fire one about a year ago with full power loads. I never liked the way the pistol felt and rode in my hand. Recoil was negligible. The gun function was flawless and very accurate, but its is not for me. S&W please.

    Like you, never cared for AL frames in any revolver and agree with Ricci: Its ugly

    Looked at one in a store once...............once.

    That's all it took. Didn't feel good and looked even worse.

    I'll stick to my Smiths and Colts.

    The design idea to put the recoil lower in the hand is sound. And that is about where the good news ends.

    Talked my friend out of it and into a SW 686 PC for the money a rhino would cost.
