Detailed Features 

 
The Rhino's most distinctive feature is its bore alignment -- it fires from the bottom chamber of the cylinder rather than the top. This lowers the bore axis relative to the shooter's hand, which reduces muzzle flip compared to traditional revolvers. The adjustable rear sight and fiber optic front sight facilitate both target shooting and field use. The moon clip system speeds up reloading significantly. The concealed hammer maintains the clean external profile and eliminates the risk of snagging on a draw. Walnut grips are standard. 
 

Usage 

 
The 60DS works for range shooting, competitive revolver events, and home defense. The reduced muzzle flip is genuinely noticeable when shooting .357 Mag loads, and it contributes to faster follow-up shots. The alloy frame keeps weight to 2.06 lbs, which is light for a 6-inch .357. The OD Green Cerakote version targets buyers who specifically want a non-traditional finish.

The Rhino's bore-axis design is the center of most discussions about it, and opinions divide predictably: traditional revolver shooters are skeptical of the layout, while shooters who try it tend to come away impressed by the reduced muzzle flip on .357 Mag loads. This is the most consistent pattern in the feedback.

Accuracy is well-regarded -- the adjustable sights and single-action mode give it decent target-shooting capability for a revolver. Build quality is a more divided topic; the alloy frame has raised durability questions from some owners, particularly on sustained high-volume shooting with full-power .357 loads.

Ergonomics split opinion. The grip and weight work well for many shooters, but users with larger hands occasionally note discomfort over extended sessions. The moon clip reloading is appreciated by competitive shooters.

The OD Green finish is a minority preference item -- it is part of why buyers choose this specific version over standard models. The novel appearance gives it collector and display value beyond typical revolvers.

Price is higher than many comparable-capacity .357 revolvers, and potential buyers weigh the bore-axis innovation against that cost difference. Owners who specifically valued the recoil reduction generally consider it justified.
