Just put another 70 thunderbolts through it, still 100%, the hammer is defenitely hitting harder than it ever has. It sure shoots good for its size.

I think your holsters look nice, no matter what color thread you use.

Just received my Black Widow back today. NAA replaced the magnum cylinder and hammer spring. Turn around time was 15 days. So far I have fired 50 rounds with 100% reliability, 30 lr, and 20 magnum. Hopefully this hammer spring lasts longer than the first two. The long rifle ammunition I fired today was Remington Thunderbolt, It seemed to be the most accurate I have tried so far. Winchester super x 40 grn fmj 22 WMR seems to be the least accurate.

Got my venom laser for my black Widow today..Will shoot it in the next day or so.

Can you still get these new, or are they discontinued?

Only about 100 rounds have been magnums. When I first got it, and right after I replaced the main spring reliability was over 90 % with lr. Now its down to 60%. I fully clean it each time I shoot with Hoppes.

Just to confirm ALL of the rounds in the magnum cylinder have been magnums....correct?
If shooting 22LR, the cylinder was changed out to the 22LR cylinder?

Pat

That is correct.

I called NAA this morning,and took it to the FEDEX office and shipped it to them. Hopefully it will hold up to some shooting when I get it back. Because as fun as it is to shoot, and easy as it is to carry. I'm not going to be able to just look at it, and not shoot it.

Ive tried CCI mini mag, CCI maxi mag, and CCI maxi mag+v. Also tried various Federal, Remington, Winchester, and Norma.

I seem to shoot a little better using the pad of my finger on my Black Widow.

Not the first post I wanted to make. But I was wanting to know what others experience has been with relibility in these small revolvers. Ive had mine just short of a month, and have fired about 700 rounds through it. The main spring broke two weeks in. NAA sent me another one within 4 days. After installing the main spring, it seemed reliable for about week. Now reliability is down to about 60%. Could the mainspring have allready gotten weak? Or do you think its some other problem? I really love carrying and shooting this gun, just want to get it shooting 100%.
