NAA Derringer Ballistics?

I have the Black widow, my wife carries the Pug. I consider these a step above the standard minis, due to the better sights, heftier constriction, and more secure cylinder pin. I like the nonfluted cylinder on the Black Widow and the rubber grips.
 
I have the 22 mag standard model, I put on the fatter grips. Once I figured out how to aim it, it's not bad. I get light strikes every once in a while though. I guess it's needs to go back to NAA for a tune up.

I have quite a few of the NAA mini's and the PUG & Black Widow are by far my favorites.

Great little guns and very good deep carry options for when you can't carry a "real" gun.;)

SSDave: Thanks for that info. That is with a one inch barrel. Pretty good considering.
I wonder what the difference is with the .22 LR with the 1 1/8th" barrel
The fifty grain WMR ballistics are very much the same as .25 ACP, though it requires a two inch barrel.

I have the 22 mag/22lr 1 5/8 Nicely made I'd miss barn standing inside. I would never carry it as a SD weapon or even back up. My 950 Beretta in 25 beats this pistol hands down More rounds, faster shooting, and reloading. If needed
I let people shoot it with the 22 cyl Mag only been shot maybe 4 times.
 
I have a 22 short that I really like.

I have chronographed many of the "hotter" 22 shorts out of it. The very best is the Agula eley primed high velocity 22 shorts. It is a 29 grain bullet doing just under 800 FPS. The Remington is the next best speed wise and does about 730 FPS. The Winchester is the worst of the high velocity loads in my particular gun.

I dont know why the Agula is so much faster than the other brands I suspect it has to do with the Eley primer, it also smells kind of like soap burning to me.

The NAA .22s are what might be considered a "deep concealment" firearm. They are small enough that even if someone is knowledgeable about concealed weapons, there's a good chance that they will not be able to tell you are carrying. From a ballistics standpoint though, they are best considered as a long range ice pick. Poke a cylinder worth of holes in someone and run the other way, hoping that it either slows them down or they bleed out before they catch you. If you are going to be some place where they frown on concealed carry, they are better than nothing.
