Fit and finish are fine. It is small and so are my hands, however, the sights are useless. It also rests in hand with an upward tilt that makes intuitive point shooting ineffective. I stood about four feet away from target and attempted to hit a 6 inch ring, nope. Probably with a good deal of practice , as with most things, I could manage to improve that. The question is why? I bought this pistol to try before possibly replacing a 5 shot .38 Special for convenience of carry. I mean it is small and 10 rounds, one for each hand would be great. In theory. It also cut my strong hand thumb when discharging and cocking. I believe I was holding it mostly correctly based on its design. Gonna use it a bit more and see if things improve. My other revolvers have no such learning curve.

Fires great, no light strikes for me, unlike some semi auto rim fires i have used. Not easy to aim, but its tiny, the cylinder gap does flash on your hands with this little thing.

One of the best deep concealment firearms out there. Very reliable as well.

After receipt my wife insisted being the first to shoot this mighty Mo. She is frail of hand yet easily cycled thru five rounds into a paper plate not six feet away. It disappeared into her purse and I haven’t seen it since. It did surface a little while back so I could install a handy extension on the cylinder rod to facilitate removal. I’ve always gave been a fan of these banty roosters and have not lost respect in any regard.

I love the little NAA .22. The thing works all the time. It’s been put through the wash, stored in a damp car, carried on a dusty ranch and been used to dispatch sick livestock. So handy I bought a second one for my wife. Very practical firearm. I do recommend getting the version with the folding stock. It’s just easier to hang onto.

I am very pleased with the appearance, finish, and performance of this mini revolver. I am able to place all shots on center of a B-34 target at 7 yards using Remington Viper ammo. It is however challenging to place the cylinder in one of the safety notches when loading 5 rounds.

Quirky little gun but well made. You better make the first 5 shots count because it's a time consuming reload.

Great quality little NAA revolver like the other ones I have. What’s nice about the 22lr version, is that it fits right inside the large Leatherman nylon sheath that you might use to carry your Leatherman Wave+.

Absolutely beautiful made mini revolver! Workmanship like a Swiss watch. I always have considered them in the past just a curio, a novelty, but they are a wonderfully well made miniature revolver! Very functional.
I am thankful I could get one as they are in very high demand and are very hard to come by. Needed to join “Team Bud’s” to be able to purchase...well worth it.....I got one! The last one apparently!

The only thing worth pocket carrying. Accurate. Fun. Solid. Everyone should have one. Or two.

Curiosity got the best of me and I went ahead and got one. I like oddball stuff like this revolver. The NAA 22LR is good for what it is... which is a novelty / why the hell not/ collectible mini revolver. It would not be my 1st choice as a back up (nor 2nd or 3rd even) not practical to use in most cases. Difficult to aim and hold... it is what it is. Hickock 45 has a good review on it... The quality, fit and finish is excellent and it took over 100 rounds with out a problem the 1st time out. Another great transaction from Buds also makes it worth while.

I haven't actually fired the gun yet and hopefully I never have to (except for plinking). I purchased this firearm for deep concealment where I am not able to reach my main carry gun or if I do not want to print but still want to have some firepower on me. I purchased it in 22 LR for the primary reason that it is the most readily available cartridge at any sporting good/gun stores and also is the cheapest to stockpile. I wouldn't recommend using this as a primary carry but to be used as a backup or to carry in a casual environment. I could carry while wearing gym shorts or swim trunks. There are a few negatives that I've found as well but they are very minor. Because the trigger requires quite a lot of pressure to fire (which is a good thing and a bad thing), if you need to de-cock the firearm it takes a few tries to get used to the trigger pull.. Be very careful with this firearm and only cock it when you are ready to fire. Do NOT half cock or fully cock the firearm unless you are aimed down range and ready to fire. It is recommended to practice with an empty cylinder before loading rounds into it. I do like that there are safety notches built into the cylinder for the hammer to rest. Also, if all chambers are loaded but the hammer isn't pulled back (assuming proper placement in safety notches), it wont fire so that is another good safety feature. It seems very solid and quality built and at a competitive price point.

Good: As nice as everyone says. Excellent quality value fit and finish Much prettier than I thought. Adorable! Needs Hello Kitty holster Nice rounded steel lockbox can hold 4 little guns. Elegantly engineered. Bad: need rear site. Ears on back of cyl frame would do it. Back of trigger has sharp hook to snag and scratch. No reason for this. Very nice overall 4.5 stars

Prompt service, as usual, from Buds. I have ordered several firearms, some of which I have cancelled, but most of which I have completed the process and accepted the firearm. Buds has always been professional in our transactions, and I would not but any firearm from other than Buds. This NAA 22 LR 1.625 inch mini-revolver is not my first NAA product. Qualityy construction, dependable, and made in the USA.. It won't be my last purchase. In fact I just ordered the NAA 22 short this afternoon. Thanks to Buds AND NAA

Great carry around the house gun , in case of an intruder use this to get to something larger and more effective.

Cool little gun, looks like a toy! You could almost put this thing on a keychain. Not the easiest gun to shoot and control due to it's small size (and I have small hands), just no place to get a solid grip on it. Little gun has got some pop to it (even though it shoots ,22LR). Bought it for a summertime carry gun, as my Ruger LCP can be a little big for summer. Bought a Remora IWB/no clip holster and stuff it in my pocket, you'd never know it's there. Now of course a .22LR is not exactly a powerhouse round, but I'd hate to get shot with one! You're not going to target shoot with this thing, but at the range I hit the paper at 20 feet. Nice little "get off me" gun! So small you clean it with just the cleaning jag!
