The North American Arms 22LR-BBO-50 Mini Revolver delivers maximum concealment in a reliable 22LR platform, featuring the distinctive 50th Anniversary commemorative finish. This ultra-compact revolver measures just over 4 inches overall, making it one of the smallest production revolvers available while maintaining the mechanical reliability NAA is known for.
What Makes This Different
The 50th Anniversary edition features special commemorative engravings and finish work that distinguish it from standard NAA Mini Revolvers. The 1.125-inch barrel provides optimal balance between concealability and ballistic performance for 22LR ammunition. Unlike derringers or single-shot pocket guns, this revolver offers 5-shot capacity with the proven reliability of a traditional revolver mechanism.
