.22 in-line rifle?

[robbos]

After reading about and seeing your .22 cap-and- ball revolvers I was wondering why you would not consider manufacturing reliable, us-made, .22 cap-and-ball carbines.

   Rocky Mountains Arms produced some in the 70-s, as I recall.

   Sincerely, Rob

First, Welcome to the forum!

   

   As of now, NAA does not make any long guns. Several on the board have asked for a "bicycle rifle", but as yet, there has been no response. The general consensus among board members seems to be the frame lacks the strength to support a rifle length barrel. Like many other gun manufactures, they are several months behind demand on the products they now make. I suspect Sandy (the owner) would be reluctant to go outside the company's specialty until such time they need a new product to draw in additional business. Naturally, I do not speak for NAA, just my opinion based on past experience here on the message board. Then, he may be looking for something different, and your suggestion may be the prize winner!

I had a couple of those little RMA .22 carbines.

   You have to use cap gun caps instead of regular cap and ball caps.

   I never found a source for good caps to use in them.

   I even tried a little black powder under the cap and that didn't work.
