The North American Arms 22MSC Mini-Revolver delivers reliable backup firepower in an ultra-compact package that fits in a shirt pocket. This stainless steel revolver features dual cylinder capability for both .22 LR and .22 WMR ammunition, providing versatility for different shooting applications.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard concealed carry revolvers, the 22MSC measures just 4 inches overall length with a 1.13-inch barrel, making it one of the smallest production revolvers available. The included interchangeable cylinder system allows switching between .22 LR for practice and .22 WMR for enhanced stopping power. The single-action design eliminates complex mechanisms found in double-action revolvers, resulting in superior reliability and easier maintenance.
Key Features
- Interchangeable cylinders for .22 LR and .22 WMR calibers included
- Overall stainless steel construction resists corrosion and wear
- Rosewood birdshead grip provides secure handling despite compact size
- 5-round capacity in both cylinder configurations
- 1.13-inch barrel optimized for close-range accuracy
- Single-action mechanism for consistent trigger pull
- Weighs approximately 4.5 ounces for all-day carry comfort
Field performance centers on extreme close-range effectiveness and absolute reliability. The .22 LR cylinder handles standard and high-velocity loads for training and small game, while the .22 WMR cylinder delivers significantly more energy for personal protection scenarios. The stainless steel frame and cylinder resist environmental conditions that affect blued firearms. Fixed sights provide adequate accuracy for typical engagement distances under 10 yards.
