Chili Ron Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Howdy, Any ideas on how to git one of them bitty little 22 revolvers configured to work in my big ol hands with a touch of aurtherittuss? They look super for hiding out but I sure don't wanna miss either. I can shoot a bearcat all day long but not so easy to hideout. Best CR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trigger Mike Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Before you buy, go to their site they have several models. One includes actual sights, another is ported. Some are easier to reload. Safer too probably. They are great to have . I've carried mine off and on since 1992. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Father Kit Cool Gun Garth Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 I never got to open mine. Parents afraid I would shoot some kids eye out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Harley, #14153 Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 They make some with a fold-out grip. Maybe that can help. https://northamericanarms.com/shop/firearms/22-long-rifle/naa-22lr-hg/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chili Ron Posted January 28, 2020 Author Share Posted January 28, 2020 Howdy, Did you check out the ballistics on the 22s????? Standard Deviation of 1?? Unbelievable. I thought 10 was great.... I gotta try that stuff. Thank ya, thankyaverymuch. Best CR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LawMan Mark, SASS #57095L Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Hold the grip with your strong hand, work the hammer and trigger with your weak hand. Watch that nothing gets in front of that barrel (Ive seen more than one trigger perforated with a NAA mini revolver). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixgun Sheridan Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Don't waste your time with them, unless you want one simply to have. I bought one of the basic .22LR versions and I can't even keep all the shots on paper beyond about ten feet. And I only have medium-sized hands. Given the fact that the bullets often keyhole I think inherent accuracy is also a problem. Maybe if I put one of those large folding grips on it I might have better luck, but then it becomes larger than my Browning Baby .25 and still a lot less effective. Having said all that, they're very well-made and incurably cute, so it's probably worth buying one just to show it off to people. But please, find something better to protect yourself with. A Kel-Tec P-32 is actually lighter, nearly as small, and a LOT easier to hit with. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy Gun Barney, SASS #2428 Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 I have a NAA magnum size with the short barrel, and sent away for the 22LR cylinder for it. Accuracy is not bad considering the size of the gun and the fact that the barrel is shorter than the cartridge. I always wanted one, so I picked it up when it was on sale. I consider it to have the range of a belly gun, like a derringer. Good across a table but accuracy drops off quick after that. Sure is easy to conceal should somebody be inclined to do so.

Henry T Harrison Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 As a police officer I carried one in my left pants pocket it was my “onion field “ gun. It was carried every day but seldom fired and cleaned often. I never expected it to be accurate beyond contact distance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Riot Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 If I were to buy one I would buy one with the folding grip. Also, If I bought the 22 Magnum that is what I would shoot in it. Personally, the .22 LR shooting CCI Stingers or CCI Velocitors would be the way I would go. The bore of the magnum barrel is .224” vs .223” for .22 LR...if the bores are cut to specs. This is the one I would probably like. https://northamericanarms.com/shop/firearms/22-long-rifle/naa-22llr-hg/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixgun Sheridan Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 The one they have that looks like a miniature Schofield is pretty cute, but like I said I don't have the desire to buy another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Gun Barney, SASS #2428 Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 being so small, there are lots of places to keep it aside from pockets and IWB holsters. They make a belt buckle these snap onto. And they make neck holsters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chili Ron Posted January 29, 2020 Author Share Posted January 29, 2020 Howdy, Is it worth getting one with real sights?? Or are they just for looks? I like simple but I like accurate too as sometimes its a priority. I gotta git to a show I guess. Best CR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gracos Kid Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Charlie Harley, "The Onion Field" was a book written by Joseph Wambaugh about two police officers that were kidnapped by criminals and I won't share more and reveal too much of the story. Wonderful read if you are law enforcement minded...…. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually there's a story about a woman who apparently didn't need a holster at all as she tried to smuggle one of these little guns into a prison. I'll let you guess what I mean...
