The slightly larger Magnum actually felt a little more comfortable in my hand, but I went with the prevailing wisdom (including the copious amounts of .22LR I have stored) and put a deposit down on the .22LR model. I will pick mine up in about a week.

Late to the party, but mine's a .22 Magnum. I don't have any trouble with the recoil, despite only being able to get one finger around the grip. As others have said, no matter which version you use, it's meant for use at halitosis ranges.

Exactly. Short barrel, weak round, virtually impossible to reload quickly. For that reason alone, in addition to the ease of concealability, I've considered getting two. When I've had a decent trial period with the first, assuming I like it and think it is necessary, I might pick up a second. The price is certainly right.

Apparently they're making a model with a swing-out cylinder now...

I remember they were looking into making a top-break auto-ejector at one point. I'm guessing for arming steampunk Hobbits...

My brother had a cap-and-ball revolver very similar to the NAA mini revolver, don't know if it was made by them or someone else. Not sure how much damage a .22 round ball would do.

I have the .22LR with standard (one finger) birds head grip a buddy of mine has the Mag/LR convertible with the holster grip, while I love mine, I'd suggest getting the convertible due to being able to choose ammo based on current availability and while the smaller birds head grip is more concealable the holster grip is nearly as concealable and significantly easier to shoot.
