North American Arms has been building tiny single-action revolvers since the early 1970s, and the Ranger II is the one that finally solved the mini revolver's biggest quirk: reloading. Instead of pulling the cylinder pin and taking the gun half apart to top it off, the Ranger II uses a top-break action inspired by the old Schofield-modified S&W design from the 1870s. Thumb the latch, the barrel and cylinder assembly pivots forward, and a cam-activated star ejector presents all five spent cases at once while the cylinder stays attached to the frame. It is a slick piece of engineering packed into a gun that hides in a watch pocket.
This version pairs the .22 WMR chambering with a 2.5 inch full ribbed stainless barrel, which buys you a little more velocity and a longer sight radius than the stubby 1.63 inch model without giving up much in the way of concealment. Sights are a bead front with a notch cut into the latch serving as the rear, and the laminated wood boot grips give your hand a bit more real estate than the standard bird's head panels, which helps with cocking the hammer and follow-up shots. The whole gun is stainless steel, so sweat, rain, and pocket lint are not going to bother it. A .22 LR conversion cylinder is available separately if you want cheaper practice sessions.
Like all NAA minis, this is a single-action-only revolver with safety notches machined between the chambers. Rest the hammer in a notch and you can carry all five chambers loaded with the hammer sitting safely off any rim. The grip frame matches NAA's other .22 WMR minis, so the huge ecosystem of aftermarket grips and holsters fits right on. Whether it rides as a deep-cover backup, a tackle box companion, or a trail gun for hikes and camp chores, the Ranger II is the kind of gun that is always there when bigger options get left at home. NAA backs it with a lifetime warranty, and it ships in a lockable metal storage case.
Not this version. This model (NAA-22M-R250) ships with the .22 WMR cylinder only. NAA offers a .22 LR conversion cylinder separately, and there is also a convertible package sold under a different part number if you want both cylinders from the start. The conversion cylinder is a nice add-on since .22 LR is cheaper for range practice and noticeably softer shooting in a gun this light.
A nudge of the thumb latch on top lets the barrel and cylinder assembly pivot forward, and a cam-activated star ejector lifts all five cases up for easy removal. The cylinder stays attached to the frame the whole time, which is a big upgrade over standard NAA minis that require you to pull the cylinder pin and remove the cylinder completely to reload. It is the same basic concept as the classic Schofield top-breaks from the 1870s, shrunk way down.
Yes. The cylinder has safety notches machined between each chamber, and resting the hammer in one of those notches keeps it completely off any cartridge rim. That lets you carry a full five rounds with the hammer secured, which is the standard safe-carry method for NAA mini revolvers. The top-break design also makes lining up a notch with the hammer easier than on the older solid-frame minis.
The 2.5 inch full ribbed barrel gives you a longer sight radius and a bit more velocity out of the .22 WMR cartridge compared to the 1.63 inch version, while still staying pocket-sized. It also comes fitted with the wood boot grips, which give you more to hold onto than the smaller bird's head panels. For most folks it is the sweet spot in the Ranger II lineup between shootability and concealment.
