Chiappa's Rhino

So I received my copy of Guns and Ammo today in the mail and on the cover is one of the ugliest guns I have ever seen. The cover shows a new revolver called the Rhino made by Chiappa.

Here is a write up on it from Gun Holster and Gear.

Most revolvers are beautiful pieces of craftsmanship. I just can't picture myself ever owning something like this. I also noticed that the barrel is at the bottom of the frame, giving a very long distance between the barrel and the front sight. I can't see how this would make for a better sight picture as the magazine claims.
