Stock NAA Companion - preliminary report

At 0.220" diameter, you'd need to flatten the pellets with a hammer or something before loading them. The chamber mouths on the Companion measure at about .224" or .225" or so, and I believe the land diameter is about .218"-.220". So if loaded as-is, they'd just fall out of the chambers, and would also strip away a lot of lead in the rifling, and be extremely inaccurate.

Are there mods you can make to mini yourself to help it along or does everything require shipping to the Man?
Well, it may be possible to just order the nipples and a new firing pin and have them shipped, then put them in yourself. The firing pin may be tough, though. I think you'd have to take the sideplate off for that.
But, I'm not associated with Jule, so you'd have to ask him yourself about whether he could just make and send the parts.

The problem is mine's a FA not an NAA
I have taken the side plate off the replace the main spring and was very impressed buy the workmanship that goes into these little beauties.

NAA companion for mods recommendation
Manyirons: You and the boss seem to know your ****. If you were carrying a NAA companion for self defense, how would you load it and what mods would you have made? Would you get the pistol primer nipples the boss is selling? Would you load Bullseye and how much? Anything else you would do? Thanks!

Was i you, i'd keep tha naa fer defense as a surprise hold out, tha BOSS considers it fer practical as a 15 foot icepick, yer jus stabbin em from a distance.
Yup! Pistol primer, bullseye, an a REAL hard lead bullet er one made outta zinc alloy, conical witha 45 degree point, WONT tell ya tha load, but it'll take it an ifin ya load em RIGHT (An usual a fresh barrel not tha crappy thing from naa) (Yup, tha BOSS relines em usual) you'll crack 1300fps from tha thing.
Course he doesa .30 or .32 caliber three shot conversion fer someone REAL serious, GOTTA be cause its three time tha cost of tha gun ta do it!
Now thatun gives ya a 60 ta 75 grn slug an about 1200+ it DO bellow! witha right load ya can shoot em AN barbque em at tha same time!

I knew about the .30 conversion, but does Jule do a .32 conversion also?

I wrote one of their .22 long rifle models up for American Handgunner a few years ago. they are a pretty good company and I understand they respond very fast when, as occasionally happens, a mainspring breaks. the 22 was very functional but I noticed about two out of five keyholes when I shot off hand. These didn't happen when I grabbed it with both hands= a good idea anyway as I had the gun do a one and a half back flip out of my single hand hole one time.

Not My Fault! I've never used the word Gee Whiz in regard to muzzle energy in my life. Cameron Hopkins, the editor of AH at the time however, LIKED the word and every time I'd mention Muzzle Energy he'd Askinize it. I finally stopped talking about muzzle energy altogether.
