The NAA "Not made yet" Wish List Thread

[burncycle]

burncycle-
Style? caliber? Your thoughts....

NAA Magnum or .22 LR (interchangeable cylinders) with 16" barrel, adjustable rear sights, folding stock, small fiber optic front sight.  Ideally with a swing out cylinder.  It can and has worked on a regular frame, but a slightly beefed up frame might be appropriate (maybe base it off an earl or hogleg frame).     If purpose built as a rifle by the company there wouldn't be legal issues.

1. More compact than Papoose, 10/22, AR-7, M6
2. More reliable than AR-7, and simpler than the others above
3. More shots before reload than chiappa little badger, chipmunk/crickett, pak rifle, M6 and other single shot

This actually fills a niche, a minimalist "survival" style game getter with 5 rounds immediately on tap in a package this compact and light? Would be an outstanding plinker and serve as a useful pack rifle.

I'd buy one in a heartbeat even if they charge $100 more than a regular NAA mini mag.  It would certainly spread through the gun owner community pretty quick IMO.

 WOW............... truely extraordinary a machinist love affair with what he does. Gotta have one of these . Thanks but how about a close up of the swing section please .

[Maccab]

Wowser burncycle, that's super awesome 

Can you remove the barrel, is it threaded?

[TeeJay37]

That's nice. Pretty much what I pictured in my head.

[OV-1D]

  You guys know that Freedom Arms mini's has a hole built into the frame right where a mounting pivot screw can be located . Heres just another project , DANG . Somebody retire me will ya's .

[TwoGunJayne]

Oh, dare to dream for a high cap doublestack .25 acp Guardian...

I'd put that on my "get it, get it now, I don't care" list and scratch a stainless Baby Browning .25 off my "well maybe one day..." list.

[heyjoe]

seecamp made a 25 acp 7+1. sweet to say the least.

Let my heat beat twice==========I'll give $900.00 real quick..........

[magnum_mike]

This as a start.

A 25acp or 32acp mini, hmmm, ah, YEA! I'd do both! Especially in a Pug config with Nite Sights (I know, I know, most think they're useless, whatever) and SWING OUT CYLINDERS!

I hoped to see all the mini's get swing out cylinders as an option...

[tocsn40]

I have posted the rifle before I would love to have that rifle

[pietro]

An NAA rifle, hands down.

   

I proposed this  NAA Bicycle Rifle (w/pics) to NAA management two years ago, and was told (nicely) that they were "less than interested" in making it....................

IIRC, I was told it was because the NAA production lines were going 24/7 to fill back orders.

BATF responded in a letter, that this conversion from handgun to rifle config met with approval, so long as the 16" bbl length & 26" OAL with the buttstock extended were met.

Oh, well.

[bill7676]

well I would like to see a wasp with a 2 " barrel in 32acp,,,and all other current calibers that naa now offers.I really like the 32acp,I now have a tomcat,, however Iam saving up for a 32acp guardian, which by the way I would like to see a 32 guardian Made little thinner not much just little.also maybe a22mag .guardian,also a sidewinder with a 2_1/8"barrel

[toos]

PUG in black with .22 and .22Mag cylinders

Love the bicycle rifle above.  Make that with conversion cylinders and I'd be very interested. 

[grayelky]

Black Widow with a Pug Trit front site, and/or the DLC coating from the Black Jack.

[G50AE]

That rifle would look good with a scope mount and a bayonet lug.  It's already "tactical" due to the folding stock, BTW.

Yep you could legally go from pistol to rifle (and even back to pistol) so long as an NFA item isn't created in the process, but in this case I was thinking of a dedicated NAA firearm built as a rifle from the ground up, with the folding stock non-removable.

Although if someone gunsmithed conversions I would definitely be one of the first in line!

From time to time, this rifle comes up, and several always clamour for one. Ok guys, its time to put up, or shut up. How much would you pay for one of these? Would you be willing to to put a 50% deposit down, if you were provided a delivery date? No, I will not accept money until I know for a fact I can actually produce the rifle and its cost to your FFL.

I think I'd be willing to commit in a few months, if I knew the price first. I think it'd be a neat rifle to add to the collection. I want a bolt-action .22 to make me slow down and focus, but a slow reloading, 5-shot, single action would have the same affect!

Is that rifle your creation?

Ya, I'll take one under those conditions if the cost of getting it to me is $500.00 or less (I pay the FFL fees on my end).
Well, maybe a little more.
It is according to the cost.
Let me know the firm cost.

[grayelky]

TeeJay-
No, I have never even laid eyes on it. It just so happens I now have access to several very talented people and I may be able to pull it off. I have a meeting scheduled for tomorrow (Friday) to see if it may be feasible. I will report back here once I have information to share.

[45flint]

To me a very cool rifle would be to put a wood stock on the Earl 1860, blackpowder.  It would be similar to the old Colt stocks they put on their 1860 revolvers during thet Civil War.  I think this would be very doable at a very reasonable price.  The barrel would be more normal in length and I believe the black powder takes you out of Federal Firearms issues.  A blackpowder hogleg would be ideal.  Lastly to me trying to make a NAA rifle comply with federal barrel length, just makes for a ugly, awkward gun, the barrel is just too long?

[TeeJay37]

Alright, cool! Looking forward to the update.

Please, sir. Let me know if you can do this to a magnum conversion, just a long barrel. I don't actually want the shoulder stock, just a "Dirty Harriet" barrel. That'd be too cool!

[RogueTS1]

Double action/single action Guardian .380 with a decocker lever and all the add ons I go on about. Big Dot sights, checkering fore and aft, front slide serrations.

Plus now after seeing Akman's additions; an internally threaded barrel with a thread protector to match the slide.

So what if NAA made an AOW?

What could it be to fill an empty, but interesting niche?  NAA AOW, what do you think?

Pengun revolver? Naa version of the GRAD knife (.22 mag/.22 lr conversion?) NAA already has most of those parts, the cylinders and such could be simply repurposed.

So many possibilities. You know those cell phone guns that they freak out all the time about? The single solitary legal problem with them is that they are 99% of the time NOT A REGISTERED AOW that was manufactured "properly" with paperwork and a stamp. NAA Cell phone gun?

There were some really neat historical devices made that would now be considered an AOW. I'm sure there's no patents on any of that old stuff anymore.

Thoughts? Pictures?

[Uncle_Lee]

.32 ACP MINI !!!!!

[I]

What? .32 acp mini like the Fireman's pistol, you say? GREAT! I'll take two, Uncle Lee gets two, who else wants some?

I might even take four! (one in each glove, one in each boot.) I'd be cooler than The Good, Bad, and Ugly.

Unfortunately, I now have information to share. The "gentleman" I have been working with on this project has been getting harder to motivate, and even harder to locate. I no longer have a gunsmith to work with on this project, nor do I have anyone I can replace him with. My involvement with trying to produce a working mini-based rifle has ended.

My apologies for getting your hopes up and now dashing them.

Nothing will ever be the same.
Life as we know it is over.
Might as well vote Democrat and get it over with in a hurry....

HaHaHaHaHaHaHa I was thinking just the same way and here I was filling the bath tub with hot water and breaking my throw away razor for the blade . Dam that was close !    Thanks Grayelky  .

[I]

The devil doesn't need any help.

Any chance a 3d print is what's in order? Button rifling can't be that hard to arrange...

Is it the difficulty of a custom die to thread the outside of the barrel? I might be able to scrounge up a few suppliers for a custom die to do this.

One wish....BW with swing out cylinder a la sidewinder. 


And....maybe a plain, uncut, slab sided one to send to Otto Carter for engraving.
