NAA Belt Buckle Magnum 1.125" .22 WMR Revolver - Model NAA-22MS-BBS
North American Arms
The NAA Recluse 22M is a compact, lightweight rimfire revolver purpose-built for shooters who need deep concealment without sacrificing shootability. With a 2-inch barrel and swing-out cylinder, this little five-shot revolver delivers reliable .22 Magnum performance in a package that disappears in a pocket, ankle holster, or pack. It's the kind of gun that works as a backup, a deep-woods survival piece, or a truck gun—practical insurance when you want something you won't notice carrying.
NAA's reputation in micro revolvers stems from honest engineering: these guns work. The Recluse trades weight and size for nothing; you get a properly functioning firearm, not a toy. The swing-out cylinder loads and unloads like any other revolver—fast and intuitive—while the fixed sights are zeroed and usable. .22 Magnum is no powerhouse, but it's accurate, controllable, and ballistically superior to standard .22 LR in a defensive role.
Whether you're an overlander carrying backup, a backcountry hunter who wants an ultra-light utility gun, or someone who simply prefers deep concealment, the Recluse respects the job. No marketing fluff, no compromises that actually matter. Just a small revolver that does what revolvers do: point, shoot, and function when called upon.

.22 Magnum delivers higher velocity and more foot-pounds than .22 LR from the same barrel length, making it a more potent round without significantly increasing recoil. It's the better choice if you're carrying a micro revolver for any protective role or survival backup.
Yes. As a utility gun, it's lightweight enough to pack without burden and accurate enough for small-game dispatch or varmint control. Many backcountry travelers carry one alongside a larger firearm as a reliable, always-with-you backup.
The swing-out cylinder allows you to load and eject rounds as quickly as any other revolver—no loading gate, no single-chamber operation. It's faster to reload, easier to unload, and more intuitive if you're familiar with traditional revolvers.
The compact frame and short barrel fit a wide range of deep-carry pocket holsters, ankle rigs, and belly bands. Because of its light weight, it's practical for appendix or strong-side carry under a light jacket or shirt.
