The North American Arms Mini-Master delivers full-size revolver performance in an ultra-compact package designed for California compliance. This precision-engineered 22 WMR revolver combines serious stopping power with exceptional portability for concealed carry applications.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard mini revolvers, the Mini-Master features a longer 4-inch ventilated rib barrel that significantly improves accuracy and muzzle velocity. The adjustable rear sight system allows for precise windage and elevation adjustments, capabilities rarely found on compact revolvers in this size class. The finger-grooved rubber grip provides superior control compared to traditional smooth grips, reducing felt recoil and improving shot placement.
Key Features
- 22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire chambering delivers 30% more energy than 22 LR
- 4-inch ventilated rib barrel maximizes velocity and reduces barrel heat
- Stainless steel construction resists corrosion and environmental conditions
- Adjustable rear sight with white outline for quick target acquisition
- Finger-grooved black rubber grip reduces recoil and improves handling

Field testing demonstrates consistent 2-inch groups at 25 yards with quality ammunition. The 22 WMR cartridge generates approximately 324 foot-pounds of energy, making it effective for small game hunting and personal protection scenarios. The stainless steel finish maintains its appearance through extended use in humid or coastal environments where blued steel would show wear.
