Chiappa is a firearms company known for its innovative guns. This Italian manufacturer has produced all sorts of firearms—handguns, rifles, shotguns—and has been innovative while doing so. They make everything from reproductions of 1873 Peacemakers and Sharps buffalo rifles to the “upside-down” Rhino revolvers that fire from the bottom chamber of the cylinder, giving them a very low bore axis. (By the way… you pronounce it “kee-AH-pa,” according to the company.)
