NAM SIDEWINDR REV 22LR/22M 1SS

North American Arms Sidewinder Single Action Revolver 22 WMR 1.5 Barrel Stainless Steel Silver Wood Grips Fixed Sights 5 Rounds Swing-out Style Cylinder Assembly NAA-SWCThis is an FFL item & requires shipment to an FFL. After order is placed, have your FFL email us a copy of their FFL referencing your order number.The Sidewinder features a swing-out cylinder allowing for speedy reloads without removing the cylinder. As with all of the mini-revolvers the frame starts out as an investment casting with the barrel and cylinder machined from solid stainless steel bar stock. This allows for precise machining to meet the tolerance levels needed for a firearm of that size. The fit and finish is excellent. The cylinder and sides of the frame are polished while the topstrap sides of the barrel bottom of the frame and backstrap have a matte finish that provides an attractive contrast. The Sidewinder is a five-shot single-action-only design with an exposed hammer and an unguarded trigger. The bird's-head profile of the grip has the same dimensions as the other Mini-Revolvers and will accommodate any of the optional stocks. Due to the internal design and the location of the cylinder hand and stop the Sidewinder opens to the right side of the frame. To open the cylinder the hammer is set on half-cock. The knurled end of the ejection rod is then pushed forward to release the cylinder. Once the cylinder is in the open position the ejector rod is depressed allowing the empty cases to be partially ejected. The size and design requires the empty cases to be individually removed and the cylinder has to be rotated to allow the empties to clear the stock.
