This gentleman is looking to sell his collection (no individual sales) He lives in AZ. 

I met him quite a few years ago at the Phoenix Gun Show and he knew I had a few NAA Revolvers  :o  so he came to the shop and offered it to me. I declined to buy it because I don't collect Freedom Arms but offered to post photos here on the Forum.

These photos were taken by me out of a binder he has of photos of everything (they are photos of photos)

If anyone is interested I can give his name and phone number so you would be dealing with him direct.

He said it is a complete collection of Freedom Arms and FA Belt Buckles (I don't know, I'm not an expert on Freedom Arms) there are quite a few of them! I think there are 39 or 40 guns in total.

With each gun is the paperwork and box from the factory and he made 3 wood display cases for them (those are included)

WOW. I especially like the buckle (?) that holds the mini and the spare cylinder with its own pin. The last one in the last photo.

Gentlemen, empty your wallets ......... ;)

Rick said 40 minis, and I count 16 buckles. Three display cases. Lowball of $400 per gun and $100 per buckle. $500 per case. That's a minimum $19K. Plus shipping and FFL. . :o

There was a "rumor" I'll share. He seemed pretty motivated.

So do you think I could get $400 for my Freedom Arms 1 1/8" .22 L.R.? (Rare version with intact front sight)

  Its a long shot TheySay seeing most collectors already have numerous pieces . $350. possibly and thats pushing it with more mini sales are NAA's .these days . Good luck though . ;) ;)

I'm curious, are current NAA parts interchangeable with Freedom Arms?

No. There are many differences. I can't say there aren't some parts that may interchange but I can say there are many that can't. The hammer & cylinder pins are obvious differences.

   I agree there are no interchangeable parts not even grips , maybe the main hammer spring and cylinder lock possibly never looked at those close up . Have not ever changed any parts on my Freedom Arms collection . Freedom Arms mini's are certainly outstanding in my eyes just because such care was taken in finishing the guns appearance inside and out . Most unseen areas on NAA's are always left in rough condition , sharp edges especially so but not on Freedom Arms guns , great care was taken on each and every detail .True the sight blade had a habit of falling off but that was due to overheating the barrels . They used silver solder if I'm not mistaken which doesn't like too much heat . Funny after a sight fell off the barrel looked untouched ,clean as a whistle and easy to reattached by a jeweler , I used on one . I'm a firm believer in Freedom Arms qualities then and now .  ;) ;)

OV, you should go out in the back yard and dig up one of the jars of money and buy that collection!

I had one gentleman call me and ask for the contact info. He stated he has "lurked" here for a long time, he does have NAA's. But, has never posted. (or rarely)  He just enjoys all our bantering! lol!!  :o

So maybe it will be going to a new home!

I don't dislike harry because of his opinion. Everyone has the GOD given right to have one and express it.
I hate his attitude.

I dunno. With those strong opinions, it would be hard to be pleasant. Sort of like smiling about having irritable bowel.

When I was probationary, just out of the blue he insulted me, no reason, just being a jerk.  I looked at his profile and saw it's 90% ad hominem attack posts with no real arguments or other content. I love reading different opinions from folks with something to say but Mr. cfs comes up short in this regard.  He doesn't do his pet causes any good when he can't articulate any rational defense and just spews venom.
