I have the NAA fold up 22 mag. and love it as a carry weapon. It fits inside my pocket and looks like one of the fold up utility knives from the outside. Also, I like the hammer safety position between chambers. Still working on getting the thing open as I draw (unloaded of course). The barrel is really short so it isn't accurate at long range, but up close, with the .22 magnum load, look out. Mine also came with the .22 LR cylinder which works well at the range.

Ill vouch for a 22lr being extremely deadly any day of the week. But if I was ever shot by a belt buckle gun I may just take my knife and stick it in the bullet whole and swear I was stabbed just to keep for being embarrassed. If I lived, the jokes would never end at the shop where I work. " a man took off his belt buckle and shot you"...nope I would just get stabbed.
Thats funny right there, I dont care who you are
Jethro, we out in the country do have 22s we also have larger guns but the ammo costs more and the feds wont suppliment this so we have to use the cheapest round we can or them durn food prices will surely go up...
and when you can hit the target the round isnt all that important, just ask James, James Bond I find it so very funny when guys discount the 22. But hey, I cant change anyones opinion. They need to go out and do on their own. Then they say, damn that killed it right there......

I once had a coworker ask me, "if you shot someone from here to that wall (about 15 yards) with a .22, do you think it could like seriously hurt them?"
I replied, "take the shank from that #2 phillips screwdriver and run it all the way through your body, and tell me if you are like seriously hurt."
Being a moderately intelligent person, I recognize the superiority of other cartridges, but I have never met a .22 basher who has been shot by one or is volunteering to do so.

i would buy one of those in a heartbeat. i remember them from many years ago and always wanted one. i'm not sure they are practical in any real sense of the word but damn that is a cool belt buckle. are they still selling them "new" or is that an original?
Wow, yes read it if you ever get time, ALOT of time. haha dont have that kind of time. Listen, conceiled carry is not for everyone, most dont even arm themselves out or at home. Alot of people who say they arm themselves at home have their unloaded guns locked in a safe or put away. Some dont even have guns they think they will just call the cops and wait. To each their own. I will now and after this post still do and believe the way I choose after this post. (I like to carry conceiled) for my reasons. In the last two weeks on running traffic I only pulled over two individuals who had a conceiled license (one was last night) This is Texas where alot of people are suppose to be gun fanatics. Anyway Its sad to me so many choose not to arm themselves esp. in a world turning into what it is becoming. Yes, I can open carry in the 50 states, but I choose to carry conceal off duty. Seen ones that gotten raped, cut, shot , robbed and even killed and wonder how things would have turned out if they would have been armed and actually been proficent and not just toting a gun. who knows maybe its just your time, then youd better have your life right with the lord! anyway, this way works best for me!!!
o yea, we can read all the surveys, however true or false they may seem. are watch the news (i never do) havent in years because its so chopped and twisted to make a story for ratings not for truth! so I say to pick a way that works for you and for your piece of mind. and practice, practice and more practice..
those are very cool gun/belt buckle combo but still alittle pricey for me. Practical/questionable. and to the dummies that I said earlier that a 22 is not accurate, go back and read the posts. I said that cute little naa pistol Id like to see someone shoot a coyote at 20 yds or 75 yds away. (not happening)! rifle 22 you bet, I killed many deer with a 22 long rifle. 90 yds aint to thing!!! In a survival rifle, Id take a 22 anyday. Just think of the ammo you could pack
Coyote's aren't to common in my area (Vegas) , it's the cougar's, and they have there own money.
Well, if you don't want to flip the money for one, the gun is pretty nice ($185 bud's), and the buckle I'm sure half the cost is R&D at $57 OTD. Only time will tell if the chrome starts to flake. It's a pretty clever design with what I'd call double retention, with the combo of the magnet, and the flip over lever.

I think I'm going to get one next week, not 100% yet, but am leaning that way. I wont get the belt buckle though as I prefer to carry concealed.

We are allowed to OC in Michigan and I imagine our rules are similar to other OC states.
Legal: Carrying a gun openly in most public places.
Illegal: Carrying a gun into a church, bank, court, theater, sports arena, day care center, hospital or bar.
Illegal: Brandishing a gun, defined as waving or pointing menacingly.
They can't do it: Local governments can't enact laws prohibiting carrying guns openly.
Hidden: A county-issued permit is required to carry a concealed weapon.
Driving: If you're driving, you must take the holster off and store the gun unloaded in a trunk or far from an easy grab away.
Handguns vs. long guns: The Michigan State Police say you can carry a long gun or a handgun as long as you're not brandishing it.
Private property: Businesses or individuals can set their own rules about carrying a gun, openly or concealed, on their own property.
One of the reasons I don't like to carry open is because I don't want to make people feel uneasy. But... as more and more people begin to carry openly the general public will eventually be desensitized to it and come to see it as fairly "normal".
Personally, I think OC is a strong deterrent to two-legged predators.

FYI,
Even if an establishment (Non government) including a casino, doesn't allow fire arms doesn't make it illegal. But they do have the right to kick your butt out under the tress passing law and so on......
bn there, did that,... I bought the T-shirt, twice!
Your not in MN any more Dorthy!
