North American Arms Mini Revolver
(45 votes, average: 3.62 out of 5)
Loading...The North American Arms (NAA) Mini Revolver is a small revolver constructed entirely from stainless steel. These small revolvers are reminiscent of the spur trigger single action revolvers of the mid-19th century.

Sig Sauer P232
(148 votes, average: 3.61 out of 5)Loading...The most beautiful handgun ever? Ok, I know this pistol is modeled after the Walther PP… but I’d venture to say Sig Sauer did it one better. This gun is gorgeous, especially in all stainless. And yes, it’s only a .380, but man does it feel good in the hand (especially with the Hogue grips […]

If you can’t tell yet, this weapon comes from Israel. The Jericho was the original name, and in many opinions, the least foolish sounding. The Jericho is really the forgotten modern handgun when compared to the […]
Walther P22
(122 votes, average: 3.58 out of 5)Loading...The Walther P22 is a .22 caliber polymer semi-automatic handgun. The factory box contains the gun, 1 magazine and different grip sizes. The gun fit my hand perfectly with the standard grip size. The standard .22 magazine holds 10 rounds. I would classify this gun as compact. This gun is a very good size for concealed carry, although […]
Springfield Armory XD (Xtreme Defense)
