Nice find! I love old ads like those...

That is a cool old ad... Let see, I would have been a Sophomore in High School when that ad came out.  :o
And Hey, I have THAT model NAA!!   ;)  Thanks for sharing it.

Does that say 1976? I was 13. Wish I had started collecting back then.

Does anyone have any more old ads, we're these the first models?

I was 10 in '76, I didnt really get into guns until a year or two later.

They were too expensive for me to buy back then.

These were not the first models.
First models used a different cylinder stop-on top of the gun.

I was 14 in that year Joe.  Was a Biker too at 16, rode to High School on my Sportster.  :)

I had a little Honda back then got the Harley now tho

No worries, I had to sell the two I had back when I moved to Indiana.  I wasn't able to hold one up anymore if the wind caused it to lean to the left.  My left leg is weak due to a work accident.  I walk with a cane to try to keep myself from falling if it suddenly buckles.  I miss my Bikes though and wish I still had them but them's the breaks.

I been feeling my age this weekend, finally clearing some trees from our hurricane a year ago in FL. Guess I'm a young whippersnapper though at 42. I was only a year old when that ad came out. I didn't realize it was already called North American Arms that long ago. The magnum I had 20 years ago was a Freedom Arms model. Wonder how old it was?

Arts09

It's so cool to see those old ads. Have a few myself.  I graduated high school that year. Time is just flying by!

I spent 6 months of 1976 in the Philippines. Thanks to the Navy. What a time. Didn't get my first NAA till 2005, I think!

Good move! If Campbell or Hettinger had one on them, it would have been a different outcome.
