A new custom configuration of the Chiappa Rhino 60DS revolver has been showcased, featuring an extensive array of aftermarket accessories aimed at maximizing versatility for everyday carry and tactical use. The build centers on the .44 Magnum platform, with the host emphasizing personal customization over manufacturer restrictions.

- Steiner D-BAL laser aiming module
- Steiner T1xi optic on a reverse Unity mount
- Midwest Industries brace and aftermarket grip

Pros and Cons
Pros include the improved ergonomics of the Midwest Industries grip compared to the factory option, the practical addition of shell holders for quick reloads, and the overall streamlined integration of optics and lights despite the revolver’s unconventional layout. The quick-detach sling system adds further utility for varied carry methods.
Cons noted by the builder are the inherent challenges of fitting multiple accessories on the compact frame, requiring creative mounting solutions such as the reverse Unity mount.
