Chiappa Arms Rhino
Notes: Chiappa
Firearms is basically a US import company of Italian firearms.
One of these Italian companies is the Kimar Group of Azzano Mella, which
makes a brand imported under the Armi Chiappa name and sold primarily in North
America (by MKS Distributing). The
parts are largely made in Italy, but assembled in the US, as to not run afoul of
US importation laws, and finishing work is done in the US, again because of
importation laws.
The Rhino is a
chunky, slab-sided Revolver which uses a flat-sided and largely-dehorned
exterior which makes it useful for self-defense and backup purposes.
The unusual design uses a low-mounted barrel which has a jagged upper
frame providing a front sight no rear sight is provided, though the front
sight is fiberoptic. The Rhino has
natural pointing qualities due to the ergonomic construction, but the
low-mounted barrel requires some getting used to.
The low-mounted barrel causes less muzzle flip than standard designs.
Construction is of a light alloy frame and rubber wrap-around grip.
Two versions exist the 2000DS, which is double-action on the first shot
and single action for follow-up shots, and the 2000D, which is single-action
only. A further 20D and 20 DS
provides a blued finish instead of a nickel finish. A manual safety is provided.
Barrel length is 2 inches for the base model, but there is a 4-inch-barrel
version with a very short length of MIL-STD-1913 rail under the muzzle and
versions with 5 and 6-inch barrels with longer rails.
The versions with 4, 5, and 6-inch barrels have ventilated sighting ribs
above the barrel. The versions with
4, 5, and 6-inch barrels also have textured wooden grips.
In 2012, Chiappa
introduced new chamberings to the Rhino.
This was not difficult due to the design of a Rhino cylinder, and more
chamberings may follow.
On Chiappas web
site, there is a notice that firing the Rhino requires some extra training.
The notice says: The Low position of the barrel requires a specific grip
style, please click here to view instructions.

EAA Big Bore Bounty Hunter
Notes: This is a
Russian-American replica of the old Colt Peacemaker of the American West.
This version is an almost exact copy of that revolver, with walnut
one-piece grips (sometimes with ivory-colored grip plates), case-hardened color
finish, blued, or nickel-plated, and with a choice of the two most common barrel
lengths of the period. One
difference is that the EAA replica is capable of firing both blackpowder and
modern loads. The sights consist of
a simple blade front sight and a notch rear sight.

EMF GWII Alchimista
Notes: The
Alchimista series is part of EMFs Great Western line, and is based on the Colt
Single Action Army 1st Generation design.
Differences include a wider and more set-back competition trigger, a
larger trigger guard for those with larger of longer fingers or wearing light
gloves, and a gripframe based more on the 1860 Army instead of the 1873 SAA
(said by many SASS experts to have better natural pointing qualities.
The Alchimistas are designed to be able to use blackpowder and modern
propellants. The Alchimistas differ primarily in finish and chambering, plus
some other minor differences,
The Alchimista I
has a color-case hardened finish to the gripframe, hammer, and trigger guard,
and a blued cylinder, barrel and ejection rod shroud and trigger.
To go with the gripframe, the Alchimista I has a checkered walnut grip, a
modern version of that designed for the 1860 Army.
The Alchimista II is similar, but has slightly more weight, a different
mix of chamberings and barrel lengths, a medium-profile barrel, and a lower,
wider hammer.
The Alchimista
III comes in standard and deluxe finishes; standard finish is as above, while
the deluxe finish has a nickel-plated and elaborately-engraved gripframe and
cylinder and gloss-black barrel, hammer, and trigger and trigger guard.
It has a heavy octagonal barrel and a different mix of chamberings.

EMF Dakota 1875
Notes: Like
other several other EMF designs, the Dakota 1875 is made for EMF by Pietta of
Italy, and is sort of an amalgamation of several Old West revolver designs.
The original Dakota has a 7.5-inch barrel and a blued barrel with a color
case-hardened frame, cylinder, hammer, trigger, and trigger guard; the current
production Dakota II has a 4.75-inch barrel and comes in one less chambering
than the original Dakota. Both are
single-action designs meant to fire both blackpowder and modern propellant
loads. Both have smooth walnut grips with a birds head design; the Dakota IIs
design does not have a separate cylinder pin bushing.
The Police 1890
is essentially the same revolver, but has a 5.5-inch barrel with a smaller
hammer and hard checkered rubber grips.
Finish is satin stainless steel. It is no longer being sold by EMF or
produced by Pietta.

EMF Great Western II
Notes: Though
actually manufactured for EMF by Pietta of Italy, the Great Western II is sold
exclusively through EMF in the US and therefore I have included it here.
This replica is sort of an amalgamation of several Old West-type Colt
designs, and therefore, while it does not look like any particular Old West-type
revolver, it does look like something out of that era, and in fact many of its
parts can actually be interchanged with a 1907 Colt revolver.
The Great
Western II is of course built primarily of steel; finishes can be of several
types. The one with the most
authentic finish, called the Californian, has a case-color hardened frame,
trigger, and hammer, with blueing on the rest of the metalwork.
Other finishes include bright nickel plating, or the metalwork can be
made from stainless steel. Grips on
the Californian are of one-piece walnut; grips of the others can be of walnut or
Ultra-Ivory (a faux-ivory plastic).
The mechanism is
almost identical to those old Colts, including arched/beveled chamber fronts, a
rounded trigger guard of the proper shape of that period, a two-notch base pin,
and markings which are few and unobtrusive.
The firing pin is on the hammer, and the hammer surface is checkered.
Sights are fixed and consist of a square-notch rear and a half-moon
front. The sights are
intentionally made by the factory too
high, so that one can easily modify the sights for the typical load and bullet
weight he typically shoots with some filing.
Though very well-built, there is the slightest amount of play between the
grips and the frame.

EMF Hartford Single-Action
Notes: Actually
produced by Uberti for EMF, these revolvers are faithful reproductions of the
Hartford version of the Colt Single-Action Army except for the chamberings,
which are greater in number than the Hartford ever had.
The EMF Hartford is considered to be a good reproduction of the original
Hartford, with a color-case hardened frame and blued barrel and cylinder.
The fit and finish is superb, better than any original Hartford, and yet
they are very reasonable in real-life cost.
The EMF Hartford, however, does have a couple of problems the fixed
sights tend to shoot a bit to the left of target, and one of the two base pins
tends to slip out of position. (EMF
later shipped owners a replacement pin that fixes the problem, and newer models
are shipped with this fix already in place. Some filing of the front sight fixes
the sight problem, but this requires a Formidable: Small Arms (Pistol) roll or
an Average: Gunsmith roll to do properly.) The EMF Hartford also has the
transfer bar safety required by newer US laws, something the original Hartford
did not have. The backstrap is made
of brass, while the frame is steel.
The trigger guard is also of brass.
Both are black nickel plated so that they look like steel and do not spoil the
appearance of the gun. Grips are of
smooth walnut. The EMF Hartford has been built since the 1950s and production
has only recently been discontinued.

Nighthawk Custom/Korth Mongoose
Notes: This
collaboration between Nighthawk Custom of the US and Korth of Germany is sold
primarily by Nighthawk Custom, though some small numbers are offered in Western
Europe by Korth. Together, they
have created a line of high-quality revolvers, with Korths fit and finish and
Nighthawk Customs precision. It
harkens back to the day when a revolver was a hand-built piece of art. The
frames and all parts are fully machined from the finest billet material.
The trigger face is highly-polished and the trigger has a very smooth
action with no creepiness and a precise lockback. Barrels are of high-quality
4340 steel; frames are of 4140 steel.
There are three
versions of the Mongoose. The
standard Mongoose is a .357/.38-firing revolver, with barrel lengths of 3, 4,
5.25, or 6 inches. The barrels are
of medium-profile and match-quality. Finish is in DLC Black. It is
ergonomically-designed, with soft rubber Hogue grips with finger spaces and a
loop-type serrated hammer. The hammer is match-quality. The cylinder release is
easy to access and actuate, speeding reloading.
(No effect in game terms, however.) The rear sight is adjustable; the
front sight is a gold bead.
Unusually, no clip is necessary to seat the 9mm Parabellum rounds.
The SkyHawk
comes only in 9mm, requiring no clips since the revolver is designed for the
ejection of the rimless rounds. The revolver has a very unusual appearance with
the frame coming diagonally up from the trigger guard, forming a barrel shroud
inside of which is a medium-profile barrel.
It is a physically smaller weapon; the SkyHawk moniker denotes that it
was designed for use by Sky Marshals and undercover police. The cylinder is
located well-back in the frame. With a two-inch barrel, the SkyHawk is a mere 16
centimeters long. The frame is
hard-coated black, while the cylinder and barrel are finished in Black DLC
Coating. The frame is 7075
aluminum, while the rest of the metal is steel. The grips are soft rubber Hogue
grips, with finger grooves. Barrels
come in 2 and 3 inches.
Hunting, target
shooting, competition, or even tactical use the Super Sport is designed for
all of them, and has features that would please most large-revolver users.
The frame and parts are hand-machined from the finest billet steel
available. The rear sight is
micrometer adjustable, and the front sight is a dovetailed ramped blade. The
trigger, called a Roller Trigger by Korth, allows for user adjustments to pull
weight, pull length, overtravel stop, DA trigger progression, and sear
adjustment. The mainspring is also
adjustable, and the hammer is match-quality.
The barrel is six inches and of heavy profile, and uses a
polygonal-profile barrel. The
barrel is of 4340 steel and is lined on the outside with Picatinny rails on the
sides and bottom, the full length of the barrel.
Though the standard chambering is .357, a switch-out cylinder allows the
Super Sport to fire .38 Special and 9mm Parabellum, with no clips required for
the 9mm. The grips are of soft
rubber Hogue ergonomic grips with finger grooves.

Walther/Smith & Wesson R99 La Chasse
Notes: Actually
manufactured in Smith & Wessons plant in Massachusetts for Walther, the La
Chasse is a revolver designed for self-defense.
The frame, cylinder, and barrel are of steel, but the grip is made from
polymer, and (when bought from Walther) the La Chasse comes with several adapter
pieces for the grip to allow it to fit better in different-sized hands.
Twilight 2000
Notes: This revolver does not exist in the Twilight 2000 timeline.
