The North American Arms Black Widow is a .22 LR single-action mini-revolver featuring a 2-inch barrel and model number NAA-BWL. Evolved from NAA’s .22 Magnum frame series, the Black Widow incorporates time-tested design characteristics that deliver enhanced stability and accuracy. This 5-capacity revolver showcases a heavy vent barrel and bull cylinder, finished in stainless steel with fixed sights.
The Black Widow’s oversized black rubber grips display the iconic red hourglass shape emblematic of its namesake. This model comes equipped with fixed Marble Arms 3-dot sights, dovetailed into the barrel, offering a squared off front sight blade and square notch rear sight picture consistent with modern defensive pistol sighting systems. The 2-inch slab-side barrel features a squared off vented rib reminiscent of the Colt Python, with grooved top rib between the sights to minimize glare.
NAA Mini-Revolvers employ a simplified design that enhances frame strength and reduces production costs—they omit loading gates and ejector rods, with the cylinder removed from the frame for loading instead. Weighing 8.9 ounces, the Black Widow achieves exceptional portability for deep concealment or backup carry. The Black Widow remains compact enough for concealment in light clothing and serves equally well as an ideal kit gun for fishing, camping, and hiking.
