Match-Ready Performance

Low Bore Axis Design

Like all Rhino models, the Match Master fires from the bottom chamber of the cylinder, lowering the bore axis relative to the shooter’s hand. This engineering advantage:

  • Reduces muzzle flip

  • Improves recoil impulse control

  • Enhances shot-to-shot recovery

  • Promotes flatter sight tracking

For competitive .38 Special shooters, this translates to improved rhythm and tighter groupings during extended range sessions.

6” Vent Rib Steel Barrel

The extended barrel provides:

  • Increased sight radius for precision

  • Enhanced ballistic consistency

  • Vent rib for heat dissipation

  • Improved weight distribution for balance

  • Optimized for target and competition shooting

  • Precision Airstocrat adjustable sight system

  • Durable Gray PVD coating on barrel, cylinder, and frame

  • Premium Black Hogue Micarta grip for enhanced control

  • Exposed hammer for crisp single-action trigger control

  • Balanced 6-inch configuration for accuracy and stability

This revolver is ideal for firearm buyers seeking a refined, modern take on the classic competition revolver platform.
