There are small carry guns, and then there are North American Arms minis. The 22MSGBG is a five-shot single action revolver chambered in .22 WMR with a 1.13 inch barrel, and the whole thing is machined from durable stainless steel. At under 5 inches long and well under half a pound, it rides in a pocket, a pack, or just about anywhere else without you noticing it. That deep-concealment size is the whole point, and nobody has done it longer or better than NAA.
What sets this model apart from the standard mini is the exclusive wood boot grip. Anyone who has handled a bare-bones NAA mini knows the standard bird's head panels leave your pinky and half your hand hanging in the air. The boot grip extends the grip length so you get a fuller, more natural hold, which pays off in better control and quicker follow-up shots. You give up almost nothing in concealability and gain a lot in handling, which is why plenty of NAA fans consider the boot grip the way to go.
This is a classic single action, so you cock the hammer for every shot. The cylinder features halfway notches between chambers, letting the hammer rest securely off any live round so you can carry all five chambers loaded without worry. The fixed half moon front sight keeps the snag-free profile intact, and the spurred hammer is easy to run even with the gun's small frame. The .22 WMR chambering gives this little revolver noticeably more pop than its .22 LR siblings, making it a favorite as a deep-cover backup or a trail companion.
Owners tend to describe these as well made little guns with surprising bark for their size, and the stainless construction shrugs off pocket carry, sweat, and weather. Whether you want a last-ditch backup, a tackle box gun, or just a beautifully machined conversation piece, this one earns its keep.
Yes. The cylinder is machined with halfway notches between the chambers, and when the hammer is lowered into one of those notches it rests completely off any live round. That design lets you carry the full five-shot capacity securely. Just take the time to practice lowering the hammer into the notch properly before you carry it.
The standard mini wears small bird's head panels that only give you a couple of fingers on the gun. The boot grip on the 22MSGBG extends the grip length downward, so you get a fuller hold and noticeably better control when firing. It adds very little bulk, so the gun still hides just as easily in a pocket.
No, this model ships with a .22 WMR cylinder only, so stick with .22 Magnum ammo. If you want the flexibility to shoot both, NAA offers convertible models that include a second .22 LR cylinder. For this gun, quality .22 WMR loads are the way to go.
It takes a little practice, but that is true of any deep-concealment handgun. The boot grip makes a real difference in how the 22MSGBG handles compared to a bare mini, and the single action trigger is simple and predictable. At the close distances this gun is designed for, most folks get comfortable with it quickly.
