Well son, we know your friends here in Massachusetts have been making fun of you, and you have been asking questions at the range. Your mother and I feel it's the right time to tell you about your true heritage. Yes son, you are adopted. We are pretty sure your birth parents are from Provo Utah. You were found all by yourself laying on a table looking very small and lonely. We always wanted a little fellow just like you, and we had to make you our own. The first time we took you out you made us so proud. You were, and are everything we hoped you would be. Always remember this .....We love you, and regardless of size, true quality will always show through.

I bought one of those little guys in .22 Mag a couple of months ago. Couldn’t resist it was just so cute! Took it out and shot it, and my goodness! It’s loud but I had no problem keeping it on a saucer at ten yards, and I bet it would be the berries for snakes. Wish I had bought one years ago.
 
I owned and carried a North American Arms mini in .22LR in my pocket long before I had a CHL...I shot it occasionally just to make sure it would go "bang" when necessary...After several years it got to the point of being unreliable...I mailed it back to NAA requesting repair and asking to be billed before returning it to me...In about three weeks I received it in my mailbox along with a no-charge statement...The only original part remaining was the frame, and it had been polished...Even the cylinder and grips (very beautiful walnut) were new...And it functioned again flawlessly...

Needless to say with customer service like that when I didn't even have the original invoice, when I opened my store I carried every NAA product in stock, and they were good sellers for me...:D...Ben
 
I have one in .22LR but I don't know what it would be good for other than satisfying one of my wants. I also have a Ithaca 10ga. SXS for the same reason. One little and cute and one big and ugly. Larry
 
Great post, OP. Ya made me chuckle! It reminds me of my niece. She looks like her Dad, she looks like her Mom, she doesn't behave like either one of them. As a little squirt, she didn't behave at all. We swear she's adopted.
 
Hey I got one of those and love it! Handy carry with the neck chain holster.
