NAA Mini
The subject of the NAA Mini is a very prolific subject on this board. A subject that is quite popular to many of us that carry it daily. It is the ultimate "anywhere gun" (excepting metal detectors!).
I ordered the pocket holster for my NAA Mini .22Magnum directly from North American Arms. Subsequently I modified the holster by removing some leather under the trigger and over the hammer spur. Thus modified, it can be drawn and cocked from the pocket very FAST with practice. The trick is having ones finger on the trigger and thumb covering the hammer so that one can extricate the Mini from their pocket without snagging material and cock-the-hammer after clearing the pocket. VERY FAST but use care !!!
Realistically I can not carry my Colt Combat Commander, SIG P239, or S&W Model 60 to work. But my NAA Mini is always with me and my "membership dues" in my local sheriff's pistol permit "club" are paid up-to-date. When shopping after hours I carry my Commander or Model 60 with my NAA Mini as a backup piece.
The only problem I have is that I forget the Mini is in my pocket, and the court house metal detectors always find it. My friends down there now ask if I'm packing my "sissy gun" even before I enter the metal detectors. Last time this happened my reply was yes and I'm wearing my pink skivies too.
One last comment: I have in my collection the dreaded and dangerous NAA "wallet holster" ... the one that the ATF now classifies as a "SPECIAL WEAPON" if you can believe such BS. For some reason my "wallet holster" seems to be missing the trigger, cylinder, hammer, and there is no place to load the ammo. Yet those ATF guys say the "wallet holster" is a special weapon!!!
Of course the only time I've ever put my NAA Mini 22 Magnum in this holster was BEFORE THE ATF RULED IT TO BE A SPECIAL WEAPON. Frankly there is nothing special about the "wallet holster" as it is slower and difficult to hold. Obviously the ATF
dumb-arses would not know the meaning of the word "special" or "weapon" in any meaningful context.
