New Addition: Case Hardened Magnum

[PaducahMichael]

Just picked up my new Case-Hardened Magnum from transfer FFL - I've been waiting for this one since last September!

Added Spresser's Sambar stag grips, and here she is!

[TwoGunJayne]

The only thing that's kept me from a case-hardened mini is the nagging doubt about corrosion qualities of the metal and finish.

I own zero safe queens, all are shooters. I should do something about that one day...

[Dinadan]

Paducah Michael - that is a beauty! The grips and the fine leather just go very well with that revolver. I think the 1 5/8" Magnum Mini is one of NAA's best looking guns: the proportions just really appeal to me.

[Classanr]

Excellent ensemble there, and wonderful photo staging.
Those shots are catalog-worthy.

[silverback]

very nice!!!

Jayne, nothing lasts forever. But while it's good, it's very, very good!

 Mike , I can call you Mike right , if ever stag grips go with anything it's that gorgeous setup you have there , dang that's so sweet . I also always wanting one but never seen one only pictures now if I came across it in a store I'd fight someone for it . Looonnngggg wait huh ? Now it was worth it I bet .

[PaducahMichael]

Thanks, OV-1D.  Sure - call me Mike. I've been called worse.

It's my understanding that these are now "in stock" - give Jessica a call.  Sure was worth the wait.

That is the absolute perfect grip to match that mini. Nicely done. That's a piece to envy!

Thanks, Mr .22 - I know you've seen a ton of minis - means a lot that you like this one.

And that's some nice Absaroka Leather, too.

[Goatpacker]

Best looking mini I have ever seen.

[Fireside Mike]

I have had my CCH 22 Mag for over a year now.  I love the look and the weight of this one.  I wanted something unique and unusual and this is it.
I have had to replace my cylinder pin.  I've been using the hornady critical defense rounds that have a bit of punch to them.
These pictures remind me of why I wanted this piece in the first place.  It looks like nothing else.  Thank you for posting.

Great looking gun.  The grips make it superb.

[grayelky]

Great gun, and very nice pictures. Too bad pictures can't show how good they really look.

Fireside Mike-
How is the finish holding up after a year?

Will either/both of you share serial numbers? If not on the forum, perhaps in a PM? Thanks!

[Uncle_Lee]

I sin again....
You have made me envy.
Beautiful.
Those grips make IT.
Like a cherry on a sundae.

[PaducahMichael]

Uncle Lee, my serial number is CHM075. Fireside's is much lower, but I'll let him tell you.

[Magic]

wow that is something looks amazing thanks for sharing!

[nastruck]

Oh my, do I want one of those!!!!
One word AWESOME

[BillOregon]

Truly lovely combination. First time I have seen an NAA casehardened and it wears the colors beautifully. I think it's so handsome it could qualify as a Texas barbecue gun.

[JES14352]

Truly a beautiful gun.....

[Taxi]

That's a rather splendid piece, in most delightful surroundings.

[Goatpacker]

I have posted earlier about how I think that is the best looking mini I have ever seen. I think now that I have figured out what to do with the primo extra set of stags I have from Spresser. Was thinking another widow but now leaning that way and am just order and wait.

[Kentucky Kevin]

NICE

[I]

Looks like at least a $500 pile there to me. The stuff other than the ammo is probably worth something, too.

[OV-1D]

 Now theres an idea we all can sink our brains into a Case Hardened EARL in various lengths , how would that feel and look in our leather holsters and of course with stag grips , stag boot grips . How about it one of you computer geniuses lets see a image of just what that would look like , can anybody pull that off ??      OH SANDY !!!!!!! We have a question for ya .

To be honest after 18 months of daily carry there is a slight amount of wear on the  left side just above the grip.  They did a good job on the case hardening because there is not even a micro scratch anywhere on the entire thing.  I asked before I decided to get it if this is something I could carry daily or if it was an item for the safe only.  I was assured it was a usable piece and it actually is.  The look is something you don't see every day.

The only way to make it look any better would be with a blued cylinder and cylinder pin!

Well - they make a blued magnum...so maybe they could make one like you want. I dunno. Would be VERY pretty!

I would definitely like to see a blued or case hardened Earl. I'd buy one of each!

Well that's not the ONLY way to make it look better. You could always stick it in my boot and it would look better too.

[grayelky]

Blued 3" Earl? CCH 3" Earl? If you guys get your way, I may have to find a part time job......

P. Micheal, I have gotten so into collecting these Mini's. Friday I ordered the Case Harden, the Shinny Blued and the Golden Mini in 22 Mag. I ordered the bone look grips for the case harden mini but after seeing your gun, I want the grips you have. Where can I get them if you do not mind. Thursday I picked up my second edition Talo BlackJack and love it. I have been searching everywhere for the First Edition BlackJack with no luck at all. I now have the King and Queen of Hearts. I tried to pry MR-22's hands off of his Snake Eyes, but he has them glued on with Gorilla Glue. His gun is still on my list. I will just have to wait to see if the glue ever loosens a bit. LOL if you are out there MR-22. When I redeive the Case Harden I will let you know what the serial number is.  Jack

[OV-1D]

 Grady you can find Spresser grips on E-Bay or Gunbroker and on E-Bay theres another fella , Staticrecurve , making pretty handsome stag grips also , nothing like the finishing touches and adornments for the final WOW piece . Now you know " We The Gun People " need pictures or it isn't so , haha. Goodluck .

[grady]

OV-ID, thank you and since I am not a computer master, I will get my wife to post pictures of all that I have collected when these guns come in. The sales manager will be away this week but told me they have a few of these guns in stock and should expect them possibly the end of next week. She said they only produce a few of these at a time. I need to go back to see if I can find where someone explained how to post pictures on this site. If I can not find it I might need the instruction again.  Jack

[OV-1D]

 Posting is a piece of cake ,just get the pictures on to your computer file , edit them by resizing and away you go transferring them to here through attachments (browse) below posted words .
