I love odd looking guns. And when I saw a Chiappa Rhino I wanted one. Then my friend told me about its predecessor, the Mateba Revolvers. Matebafan.com has some good information regarding the revolvers designed by Emilio Ghisoni.
Here is a video of a .357 Unica 6 being fired. The amount of variety in barrel options and caliber changes for one revolver is staggering.

sadly, the barrel options have gone from "staggering" to practically nil as they're hard to find anymore. What is available, is expensive.
Ive wanted one of these for years. Then found CA won't let me get it. Oh well, I'll send it to my parents out of state LOL
Hi I just wanted to mention that it's probably "6 Unica" rather than "Unica 6", this being because in Italian 6 is written the same as the secon person of the verb "to be": the name translates as "you are unique". I've had my eye on this thing for a while now :D
