Seldom Seen #16162 Posted September 1, 2011 Posted September 1, 2011 Is the North American Arms Ranger 22 Mag. Topbreak revolver available? Lipsey's website has it listed with a msrp of $499.00. What little information I have found states it is or was limited production.
Charlie Whiskers Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 I just got a new catalog from one of my distributors.It does not show that one.
Adirondack Jack, SASS #53440 Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 Somewhere I read production had been suspended after very few units.
Flat Water Bob Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 Read an article about them when they first came out. It clearly stated that the first run would be limited and the price would be high....in excess of $500. I have been watching magazines closely for additional articles as I am interested....when the price goes down. I sure as heck could have missed someting, but I have not read that the product was taken out of production, and I would be interested in hearing something definitive about them. I just checked NAA website and do not find it, however, I did find a dealer selling it for under $500. I still want one.
Lone Dog, SASS #20401 Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 If you can lay hands on one for that amount best do it. They will never be cheaper. The very few that were made are all that there will ever be. NAA has decided against furthur production.

royal barnes sass #5792 Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 The concept was good. If they have suspended production there must have been a problem. If that is the case why would anyone want one?
Sixgun Shorty, SASS #35717 Life Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 I'd be happy to help It has been out of production for quite sometime now, sold out nearly as soon as it was released.Very few were made. My very reliable sources tell me there will not be another run of them. Hope this helps.

Sixgun Shorty, SASS #35717 Life Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 THX, SS Was that their plan to start with? Respectfully, LG According to sources that are normally 100% reliable, it was originally conceived to be a new addition to NAA's lineup, but quickly became an unintended very limited edition piece..probably because the cost of production for NAA demanded too high an MSRP and too low of a GP,inconsistent with NAA's other revolvers..This type of gun was not NAA's forte'.
Adirondack Jack, SASS #53440 Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 The concept was good. If they have suspended production there must have been a problem. If that is the case why would anyone want one? I don't think there was a problem with the GUN. I think there was a problem because in the end, the design prohibited them from making money at it. When yer losing money, there's only so much "making it up in volume" you can do
The Original Lumpy Gritz Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 THX again SS NOW, TRY and stay healthy will you Cheers, LG
Sixgun Shorty, SASS #35717 Life Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 THX again SS NOW, TRY and stay healthy will you Cheers, LG Thanks Lumpy, much appreciated..I'm getting there..another 5-6 months of miserable treatment and I should be done..one way or another! Regards, SS
Seldom Seen #16162 Posted September 3, 2011 Author Posted September 3, 2011 Thanks for the update S.S. $500.00 is a quite a chunk of change for a little gun but then it is a rather unique piece.
Wahoo Kid Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 Show me where to find one, I'll pay it!! WK
