Built on North American Arms' proven platform, this anniversary model features deep laser engraving celebrating five decades of precision manufacturing. The stainless steel construction resists corrosion while maintaining the tight tolerances required for consistent accuracy in such a compact frame.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard pocket pistols that rely on complex mechanisms, this single-action revolver eliminates potential feeding issues through its simple, proven design. The .22 Magnum cartridge delivers significantly more energy than .22 LR alternatives, generating up to 30% more muzzle velocity. The commemorative engraving adds collector value while maintaining the practical functionality that made NAA revolvers a trusted backup choice among professionals.

Field testing demonstrates consistent ignition across various ammunition weights, from 30-grain hollow points to 40-grain solids. The short sight radius requires practice but proves adequate for typical defensive distances under 10 yards. Weather exposure tests show the stainless finish maintains function after extended moisture exposure, making it suitable for ankle carry or pocket carry in humid conditions.
