I recently inherited an NAA SAS ('Eagle') in .450 Magnum Express with an extra cylinder chambered in .45 Win. Magnum. After contacting the factory, I learned that no information is available from them on this weapon, with the factory suggesting that I contact forum members for any information that they may have available. (I've already found and read Lee Martin's white paper, "North American Arms .450 Magnum Express," available elsewhere on the web.) In particular, I'm interested in high quality scans of the manual and brochure(s), if any have copies of them.

Thanks in advance to any that may have information!

That NAA was made by the first incarnation of NAA that went out in 1992. All the current NAA makes is mini .22 revolvers and .32-.380 pocket pistols.
Some members here are pretty well up on NAA's history and may be some help.

Cornell Publications specializes in reprints of gun ads and manuals; worth a look.

It sure would be nice for you to post a pic or two of that NAA SAS! I would imagine it is quite valuable by now.
you may not need it but you should have it

Look at the article link I posted for N_Frame. Shows a nice one with 3 cylinders. Look at the price!

Thanks to all respondees!

I attempted to post pictures of the piece, but the website prevented me from doing so, even though the picture sizes were within stated limits.

In the meantime, I have discovered a few boxes of sealed, factory ammo in .450 Magnum Express (not for sale!) loaded with 260 gr. bullets. Those and Lyman dies for the caliber were purchased from the NAA factory back in the day.

Welcome to the board !

FYI, probationary board members cannot post pics until they have enough posts under their name (15 ?) - so I suggest you try again after your probationary status changes.
