And the same on my early old model Black Widow... i should send in for upgrade but these days it cost $50 in shipping to you home.

Machining is nice but not the revolvers you expect.... "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder"

"Small is beautiful" effective and pleasing to the owner.

Wife asked me why I needed more guns.... I said I don't but it's "cute", and I have enough shoes.

I want the little auto

Lee,
Currently I only have (1) ...but that wont do, may need to grab a Bug Out (Sherrifs pin lock up) for starters,
I see your beautiful Harem, not one pin cylinder lock up in the mix?  Have you found these to be problematic? I know NAA stands by their products, but having a mechanical / machinist / mechanic past I get too fussy about design.
Thanks for answering my other post in "products", Mike

Thanks,
The old style cylinder pin can move forward about 3/32" into the Ball dimple created forward of the factory detent from prior use. (may be it had a Mag cylinder in its earlier life) It does not pull past this lock up position but it doesn't seem right.
If it doesn't have any "special collector value", I was considering sending it in for the conversion to the new style cross milled cylinder pin and a Mag cylinder fitted.  Give it a new "lease on life" with youthful upgrades... like I could use.
I just don't want to alter something that may be important to keep stock for collector interest, but if its like rebuilding a 1992 Subaru to keep it running right that will never have "collector" interest, I'll give her an upgrade.
Thanks for your advice, Mike

I recently acquired a Spanish Fork Black Widow .22 LR, and have developed a need for more, that said should I send the early BW back for upgrades and a magnum cylinder fitted or leave alone and get another new model combo ? I already think i know the answer, this BW has .22 LR/22 MAG. SPANISH FORK, UT. on left side of barrel, and BLACK WIDOW on right, pat. no on frame under cylinder and round north american arms logo on upper frame. Flat rubber checkered grips w/ BW symbol on right side, earlier push pin cylinder release. Ser.# BW064xx.
When was the Black Widow model introduced-1991?
Have my life tools and EDC, but now i think I've found a new addiction, These are beautifully machined precision tools, and i collect tools.
Thanks, Mike
