    Nice. That is definitely a pocket gun. I have the NAA revolver in .22LR on my wish list. Local gun shop has a .22WMR with the cylinder on a crane for quicker reloads. They want $330 for it, but the .22LR with the pinned cylinder is only $250 new so I wait.
    I’d love to have a swing out cylinder! I’d gladly pay the difference if I had the option. The removable cylinder is a pain to load and can be tricky getting the hammer in the safe position. I can’t even imagine trying to reload quickly. If I were you I’d reconsider, the price difference will mean nothing in the long run.

    Yep, I could have had it for $297 too as they had a 10% off sale. Might still get them to sell it for $300 if I wanted it, but I was looking more for a range toy, so .22 LR is cheap. But then if I get the .22 WMR it certainly won't hurt to take it to the range and it would also be more effective for a carry gun if I were to decide on carrying it at times.

    If I could get a Sidewinder for that price I’d buy it. I went to my friends shop today to see what he had but got distracted by a 2” Colt Lawman MKIII! Might have to go back for it!!

    Yep, well I hesitated too long. It was there for a couple weeks or so. I last saw it Friday and just whipped over to the gun shop a few minutes ago and it is gone.

    They still make the sidewinder in .22 mag and MSRP is $400 so I did miss a deal, but we will se what else might come up.

    There are six versions of the Sidewinder, some with two cylinders for both LR and Mag.

    I like the switchgun at the other gun shop but it is about $500 and I don't think it is drop safe.

    I have a Springfield xds with the smallest magazine can still fit in the front pocket in a pinch.

    weird question -- has anyone shot one of these?
    and if so could you comment on the accuracy?

    Thank you

    this.seems like a great community

    I dont actually use these as pocket guns but I enjoy em none the less.
    22 mag mini revolver (coats your hand in carbon)
    Altor single shot pistol ( for the sheer unique design)
    Ruger lcp 2 (old carry)
    Sig p238 (new carry)

    I was looking at the Altor in the GS last week. Very strange firing mechanism. You pull the trigger back and then, to fire, you let it slip free and it fires when it snaps forward.

    Ok, here's my old standby. The SP101 tank. You'd better wear a belt when this is in your pocket.

    Been walking to the store at night more and I've been thinking of saving up for an sp101 to toss in my pants, look like beautiful guns
