22 mag mini revolver

[EDT]

Does anyone know why some boxes of ammo say "Not for use with North American Arms firearms?"  I fugure it is because of bullet weight.  Is it bullet weight?

My guess is the NAA's are poorly made, and the ammo mfgr's don't want to be responsible for blowing them up in someones hand.  They sell derringers.

Actually NAA mini revolvers are well made. Very well made compared to anything else similar.

If its PMC .22 WRF its because of repoerted cases of "double discharge" . Where the round in the chamber and another round in the cylinder go off at the same time.

I agree that they "look"  well made, I have not shot one...but that double discharge is concerning...I will have to research that.

i owned a mini .22mag for many years.. all stainless steel, never any problems. I've seen a lot of them over the years, and never even seen one broke..
