Mini Master vs the Earl

[Anvil]

The mini Master has...      The Earl has...
a better grip hold               a classic western look
white dot sights                 easier cylinder release
heavier barrel                    NAA classic rosewood boot grips.

The ease of the cylinder release is what sold me on the Earl over the Mini Master.

Anvil,
Either one is a good choice as they both are superb. You chose the Earl and I think that would be the best choice for you.

As for me?? I would have bought them both!!!!

I have them both now.  I think I'm about done buying NAA's at 6 total but I would really like a top break long barrel Ranger II at a good price. I just ordered new tri-focal glasses to fulfill my new precription so I reckon that trumps the top break revolver.

I can justify an NAA at around $300 but not at $600!

i'll give credit is due but this price can't warrent the price . I agree with Grandpa on this matter . Way too high a price for this model and with the conversion cylinder its puts it out of the ballfield .

OV-1D,
I agree with you on that.  Yes,it is very nice but not at that price.

I remember years back,when I paid less than $125 for my first mini 22lr.

Now that I'm retired I find myself scratching for extra cash and this piece in particular is far beyond my means . In this knitch market for guns these NAA's seem to be out of reach for the ordi ally folk and larger calibers dominate sales for the price . The old adage wanting more for the moneies will always be true which turns us to other manufacturers for our protections needs I'm sorry to say about NAA's inventories prices .Its a shame but it rings true to the general public as I find myelf presently .

I hope things work out for you soon and that you may get a mini of your choice.

Having one mini is like having one 10/22,there is always room for yet another.
