Sandy's Soapbox

February 2006

New Gun, New Videos

     As promised in my 01/17/06 message board post, I'm happy to post a couple of pictures (see below) of the prototype of our 32H&R Magnum-chambered single action Mini-Revolver. These should give you some idea of the state of our progress and the size of the piece. Dimensional information was provided in my 12/05 Soapbox and we have since been advised that the approximate weight of the piece is 16 ozs. We're encouraged with what's been accomplished so far.

     I would also like to draw your attention to several videos we've recently posted on our site. The one I find most interesting is listed on our NAA in the News page under November 2005 - NAA Black Widow featured in Guns and Gears television show (video) features Johnny Rowland (the good stuff starts 1:30 into a 9:00 clip). While I've been somewhat skeptical of some of the shooting stories I've read on our Message Board (maybe because I'm such a poor shooter myself), this clip give startling evidence to what some shooters can accomplish with a 22 Mini-Revolver. While I'll admit that every piece we manufacture may not be capable of such performance - and it should be noted that we make absolutely no claims as to the accuracy of our pieces - it's impressive to see what a talented shooter can do with one out-of-the-box 22BW. Enjoy!
