A revolver that can either be separately cocked or fired with a double-action trigger. When the old S&W top breaks existed, it was a fairly common label. I just wanted to make it clear that I'd be happy with either a double action revolver with a shrouded hammer or one that could be cocked separately. If their big reveal was this backward-swinging cylinder with necessarily too-short ejector rod, I'm exceedingly disappointed.

I think a revolver that can be separately cocked or fired by just pulling the trigger is the definition of a DA revolver.
Can’t say I’ve ever heard them referred to as “triple action”.

Yup, it was after the Chiefs won last night I realized the NAA reveal was going to be a disappointment and be exactly what I thought it was.That is the biggest let-down in the history of let-downs… outside of my (m) ex (f) cheating on me with another woman.

It's a term used to differentiate from a DA only revolver, like the S&W Model 642.
Anyway, the NAA reveal is a bit lame... looks like a nice addition to their lineup, but just another flavor of the same thing. I can't help but feel a little disappointed.

Must be an archaic term. I only recall using SA, DA/SA, or DAO.

Yep. Totally archaic. I forgot that the term and abbreviation "DAO" existed in the common vernacular as I was typing. Even if I had remembered the term and spelled it out, it would have been less typing. However(!), now we all know what a triple-action revolver is (or was).

Beretta is updating their tomcat this year, that might be worth a look too.

Much obliged for the link; but until they fix the frame cracking issue, no buenoBeretta is updating their tomcat this year, that might be worth a look too.

That’s pretty lame, but I guess NAA is sticking to what they’re good at.

Yes, let's take a subcompact, low-powered pistol for folks who can't conceal anything more potent and double it's size and weight with silencers, compensators, and giant optics..... priceless.

I think perhaps we’ve reached a misunderstanding… the modern attachments I don’t parley with- but I don’t mind the better sights, nor the altered trigger guard.

Oh no, my sarcasm was aimed at Berretta, not you. Lol.
Ive had two Tomcats in the past. One cracked. Id settle for a regular Tomcat with a steel frame.

More like a rehash of the only thing they're capable of making.

It's beyond stupid, but Beretta obviously thinks the only way to sell these tip ups is by marketing them as tactical because the general opinion of the .32 in the US is it's not effective for self defense.
They may have something with a tacticool Bobcat, but the Tomcat suffers under this presentation.
Beretta these days just seems clumsy. They have no idea what to do with themselves now that the 92 is no longer the new hotness and the Pico was a fail.

That's also tool room prototype. I bet if it went into production, it would have been refined.

Such a disappointment.

It’s a nice pocket gun, but not hype worthy.
So, the cylinder releases, back of rounds covered, some sight options. Not really paradigm breaking. If you see a mini as a BUG for some close up disaster and not a reloadable distance gun fight gun, it's not that big a deal, sorry to say.
It's kind of like Glock - get a G19 with a 17 slide, get a 17 with a 19 slide - oh hum. The single stack guns were new, I grant you.
The 32 NAA mini revolver joins the Glock carbine as WAIT HERE IT COMES fantasy land. Unless there's still another NAA surprise this show.
When you have a good design, I guess fine tuning it works but not enough to make me buy it - unless I hit the lottery. Too many bills and increased Bidenomics costs in my life.

Well, the refreshed Tomcat does have my attention, now. Time will tell whether the frame sturdiness issue has been addressed, but, I am reasonably/cautiously optimistic.Beretta is updating their tomcat this year, that might be worth a look too.
