About the Gun

Chiappa's 2 inch revolver was initially produced with a fixed blade front sight and was only chambered for .357 Magnum. Around 2013 they began producing the gun in two calibers (.357 Mag and .40 S&W) with a fiber optic front sight, and in 2017 they added a 9 mm model. Early in production the model was marked as the 20DS, but now it is marked and commonly known as the 200DS.

About the Cartridge

This cartridge was developed as a joint venture between Winchester and Smith & Wesson. It was an effort to to create a cartridge with the same power as the 10mm Norma round that the FBI had just started using, but in a shorter case. The shorter cartridge would facilitate accuracy and allow use of a smaller, more comfortable grip frame. The .40 S&W has become the cartridge of choice for many law enforcement agencies in the United States.
