I have 2 of these babies... and 3 of the very mini-mini .22 LR guns, even with small hands i can barely hold those little bitty ones :D

Shot 50 rounds of CCI Stinger HP premium ammo...after 8 shots of learning where to put the "front sight" at , i was a damn good shot with it. :D

people think they cant get ANY accuracy out of such a gun, and it IS a 10-15 foot "last resort gun" obviously so.....but i could hit shotshells on the ground just fine at about 8 yards .

tried about 25 shots at 70+ YARDS (yes, 70 yards), shooting into the water on my land...aiming at rocks in the bottom of the water....amazingly, at SUCH A LONG distance, i could hit right near at it within about 3 foot or so size circumfrence....which is amazing out of a 1 5/8" barrel

when its hot as heck outside, and wearing next to nothing, keeping one of these in your pocket is something to think about. :evil:

****After 45 shots, the ball and spring in the rod which holds the cylinder in, came out...lost in the grass.......but the gun would still shoot ok, but the axle-cylinder rod just wasnt secure...but i kept shooting with it..

you have to remove the rod and cylinder after every ammo-dump/reload....so that little ball which rests in a detent on the underside of the barrel came lose and was lost......the ball is only staked in, ...must have worked loose..

hour later on my cell phone, told them what happened....theyre shipping me another complete cylinder-axle Assy. no questions asked :D


A .22 magnum with a wicked hollow point is NOTHING to sneeze at :evil:

That's the same setup I have and I love it. It's always in my pocket. Maybe it's just me but I can't hit torso sized targets with all 5 rounds at more than 7 yards. I'm thinking about filing off my front sight because POI is at the bottom of the sight so it just gets in the way really. And as a wise man once said (paraphrasing) "That way it won't hurt so bad when the BG sticks it up your nose".

I love em and as another wise man once said "A 22mag point blank to the sternum WILL stop the threat". I don't think it will help against a PCP binger but neither do 45's in that case....

Nice shooting and it's nice to hear another good story about NAA's great customer service. FWIW this is the first time I've heard of one falling apart.

Oh, and around here they are 185-200 bucks.
