    Man this thing is sweet. I really wanted the combo set up but I have had no luck finding one anywhere. well I just happen to get lucky the other day and found a 22 mag version. I did some wheeling and dealing and scored this bad boy. I have to say first impressions I love it. 5 rounds of 22 mag is nothing to scoff at. yes I know it's no 10mm but I wouldn't want to take one in the chest. I love the fact it swings open vs the regular NAA's set up. Trigger is surprisingly nice on it and it's stupid light weight. I got a bunch of 22 mag ammo that I'm going to run through it tomorrow and see what I like best. I think I'll end up running some of the heavier weight bullets in it when I carry for personal protection. I have been watching some penetration videos on it and generally through 1 layer of denim and homemade ballistics gel most are getting 10-12 inches of penetration. I will be sending it off to NAA to get a 22lr cylinder made up for it. it seems very reasonably priced and well worth it.


    I haven't shot it yet but I have dry fired it numerous times and I like it. It points very well. I'll take some pics and action videos tomorrow when I get to shoot it. For now you will have to settle on just regular table pictures.











    Got around to shooting her this morning. a bit snappier than I thought and definitely loud. I still dig it though. at 7 yards it does very well. I could probably really push it to 15 but only in daylight. put about 100 rounds through it. definitely not a range gun but 30 or so rounds through it is pretty fun.


    a few pics of it. my grouping with all different kinds of ammo. I personally liked the hornady critical defense 45 gr the best. they have just a touch more recoil but definitely appeared to do more damage on the watermelon.








    it left some nice damage inside and tore pretty big holes. granted this is a watermelon but still I wouldn't want to be hit by one.










    and a video for you folks who would rather watch lol
