It’s mint, totally unfired, never even been cocked, and I am unrepentant and ready for insults.🤨 Hi Doug, If anything I would have thought this is a bit understated for your usual flambouyant style. Mind you, it might match the gold medallion you were wearing under the open front shirt last time I saw you ! Seriously, looks quite nice and the Rhino is an interesting revolver if you know what you are getting which you do having previously owned a less colourful example. Brian I like to keep my Saturday night fever look for the weekends, that medallion can be painful caught in my mass of chest hair. 🤫 |

Well I am back from taking the daughter to Karate, mind is still reeling with images of a 18ct gold plated 6" Chiappa Rhino. I've had a good look at the usual sellers and the best price I can find is around the £250 mark ! Gulp ! But I do love the bloody thing....  Quite taken with the nickel and the black version too though ! And I can pick up a black one for £165 local-ish to me but I keep thinking about the GOLD one ( my precious, lol)....oh decisions, decisions  I might just end up with two of them  |

I pressed the like button to be polite 😂 Is that the low powered front loading shell?

I'm going to start an orderly queue. I'll be first in line when you have had enough of it. 👍🏻

I thought that I'd throw up a picture of the real steel version (one that sold at a Rock Island auction for $1150.00).....  Impossible to tell the difference between the real steel and the replica, apart from the lack of a barrel pin in the RS version ! |

Hopefully see you then. Brian |
