North American Arms, based in Provo, Utah, is best known for making some of the smallest firearms in production: its single-action mini-revolvers. Chambered in .22 Short, .22 LR, and .22 Magnum, these all-stainless five-shooters fit in the palm of a hand or a watch pocket, and have served generations of shooters as a last-ditch backup or the most discreet carry option available.
The line builds up from the basic mini-revolver to the Black Widow and Mini-Master, which add larger grips, adjustable sights, and longer barrels for better shootability. The Guardian, a small double-action-only semi-automatic in .32 and .380 ACP, gives NAA a more conventional pocket pistol while keeping the brand's focus on quality deep-concealment guns.
Precisely machined and built to last, North American Arms occupies a unique niche — proof that serious quality can come in a very small package.
