Amusing moment at the Gun Shop today

So I went on over to the local gun shop today just to have a look around and maybe do some fondling.... When this amusing little incident took place centered around the Chiappa Rhino:
Customer #1: Whats the deal with this ugly ass revolver? Why does it look like that?
Guy behind the counter: I have no idea. It sure is ugly isnt it?

Customer #1: Yeah, its really strange looking.

Me: It shoots out of the bottom cylinder where as a traditional revolver is designed to shoot out of the top.

Customer #1: Oh... So, its got a lot less felt recoil and muzzle flip.

Me: Yeah

About 10 minutes later...

Customer #2: Hey, whats the deal with this ugly ass revolver?

Same guy behind the counter: "Well, the manufacter tells us that it is designed to shoot out of the bottom cylinder so that there will be a considerable reduction in felt recoil and muzzle flip."

Me: *Rolls eyes and shakes head in disbelief.

Guy behind the counter: *Looks at me and gets the same look of shame on his face that my dog gets if she pees on the floor.
