North American Arms Sidewinder 4" .22 Mag/.22LR Stainless Steel Revolver
North American Arms
The North American Arms 1.63" .22 Mag/.22LR revolver is a compact, stainless steel mini-revolver built for shooters who need genuine firearm capability in the smallest possible package. Whether you're looking for a reliable backup gun, a truck gun for backcountry trips, or a no-fuss option for property defense, this NAA revolver delivers serious functionality without the bulk. The stainless steel construction resists corrosion and handles rough use, making it equally at home in a backpack, glove box, or on your person during extended time outdoors.
What sets this NAA mini-revolver apart is its practical versatility. The cylinder accepts both .22 Magnum and .22 Long Rifle ammunition, so you can load according to your mission—hotter .22 Mag for hunting small game or defensive use, or standard .22 LR for training and plinking at a lower cost. The revolver also chambers .22 Magnum shot shells, a genuine advantage when you encounter snakes or other small threats while hunting or camping. NAA's signature design includes a half-way notch cylinder, allowing the hammer to rest safely between rounds without needing to park it on an empty chamber—a critical safety feature in a gun this small.
Shooters who want to expand their .22 Mag gun's capability can purchase NAA's optional .22 Long Rifle conversion cylinder separately, which extends compatibility even further. This is a true multi-role revolver for hunters, outdoorsmen, and anyone serious about having a dependable, pocket-sized option they can carry without compromise.
