Fitty% 808 Posted August 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2012 The Rhino came back this week so the wait wasn't too bad. Function check complete and everything is working the way it should. Taking it to the range this Sunday to put it through its paces..AGAIN lol. There will be a video of it in action with some high speed footage to sow the recoil! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VR762Shooter 838 Posted August 11, 2012 Report Share Posted August 11, 2012 Did they do the trigger work you were hoping for? Or did they just repair and return? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fitty% 808 Posted August 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2012 Did they do the trigger work you were hoping for? Or did they just repair and return? Ok here's the deal with all that. I asked them about the trigger job and they said they didn't recommend it because of light primer strikes. Then I asked about the 9mm cylinder the you can easily swap out with the 38/357 cylinder. They said they weren't in production yet, but it says they are on their website. Finally I asked about the polymer holsters for the longer barreled Rhinos (the snubs come with a leather one) they weren't available either lol. At least I got it back quick lol. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well, its always good to get a little extra, but since they got it done quick and if it works when you take it out tomorrow, then all's well. Good CS would be to give ya anything you want, but I guess their opinion on it differs from mine Edited August 11, 2012 by VR6Shooter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gunfun 3,931 Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 Total Recall came out in the 80's. good to know. I like the barrel placement, it should help with muzzle flip. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nipper2u 101 Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 In the name of full disclosure - I took my Rhino 50DS out this weekend and had an issue where it would fail to turn the cylinder when firing or pulling the hammer\cocking lever (which was very hard to pull at times). I thought it might just need a good cleaning but after only a few shots the issue would start again. So I guess I will be contacting CS as well... Will try to update this thread if anyone is interested. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fitty% 808 Posted August 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 Well took the Rhino 40DS to the range yesterday and everything went very smoothly. Went through a box of 38's then a box of 357mag with no issues. This thing shoots so well and even the girliest of girls could shoot this because of the straight back recoil insted of muzzle flip. Video to come....got some good high speed shots too! 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KennyFSU 249 Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 Sweet, glad to hear it's running well so far. Can't wait for vids; do you have another similar-length wheel gun you could do a slow-mo comparison with? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Can't wait for vids; do you have another similar-length wheel gun you could do a slow-mo comparison with? Great idea!......I have my S&W Governor. I'll do slow mo shots of it shooting 45acp, 410ga, and 45long colt. That should be decent to compare with the Rhino's 38 and 357mag. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gunfun 3,931 Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 Those vids do a good job of showing the linear recoil. I would really love to try one of these soon. I also liked seeing the shockwave go through your forearm. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mostholycerebus 415 Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 I like the way the longer Rhino looks not the snub nose ones. I guess to each his own...just like women lol. I agree man, I would crap my pants if someone pointed the long one at me. It looks like something Arnold Schwarzenegger would use before reeling off a stupid pun. Yeah, I just about jumped out of my chair when I saw it in Total Recall. The original was much better though. If they do the 6" in .44mag I may need to pay the ridiculous price for one of these. Sort of the 'dark brother' to my dads Dirty Harry .44mag. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Donkeyshins 87 Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 (edited) It reminds me a bit of Rick Deckard's gun from Blade Runner (yeah, I know, it's nothing like it, but for whatever reason, it is evocative of it to me). -D Edited August 19, 2012 by Donkeyshins Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fitty% 808 Posted August 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2012 You guys should get a kick out of this.........so EVEN with the problem I had with the 40DS Rhino locking up after 6 rounds of 38's what did I go ahead and do? It just shoots so well I had to....plus its the length I wanted originally! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KennyFSU 249 Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 Nice! The 6" ones are way better-looking. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fitty% 808 Posted August 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 I'm still waiting on that part 3 video........*taps foot* Yeah Im going to shoot part three this weekend. My friend and I are going to spray paint some ply wood white and mark off distance in inches for recoil/muzzle flip. We are going to take high speed video of the recoil of both the 40&60DS in 38&357, XD 9mm, S&W Governor 45long colt, block 45acp and see how they all stack up! It might be a longer video due to the slow-mo but I'll trim it down to the recoil shots like in part 2. Also I might be getting some girls to model and shoot the guns for me in bikinis or revealing tops! Do you guys want to see tits jiggle in super slow-mo from hip shooting my saga-12 or what? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I respect him since he built it all with nothing, but he gives idiotic advice. if you do to much of the girly stuff you won't get picked up I can bet you, the reason he took off was the HEAVY videogame angle he had, and already had a ton of popularity because some users he knows and his commentary stuff. I'll talk with a few people and get some good tips for you on how to increase views, they should know part of their income is from youtube... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My wife fuckin hate that guys HAIR!..lol all kidding aside though if you look at the first few episodes of Ancient Aliens there is a lot of credible info. The problem was when they picked it up as a series they ran out of points to talk about because they very quickly went through most of the theory too quickly. Then they just started pulling shit out of their asses. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
