Wow, for as long as these have been on the market (well maybe not with the loading lever) I am surprised that no one here has a comment.

keep em talkin' while I reload

A gun is just like a parachute, if you ever really need one, nothing else will do.

I've got one of the NAA "Companion" C&B revolvers. Mine is the ".22LR" frame, with 1-1/8" barrel.
I think they are substanially similar revolvers, minus the "loading lever." I'm not sure, but I expect the "loading lever" on the C&B Earl is just for looks, and you actually load the cylinder out of the gun with the included press, just like their other C&B revolvers.
My Companion is lots of fun, in a goofing-off sort of way. Like all of the NAA minis that I've shot, it's a quality piece.

  I bought one of the small Companion models for a friend and "helped" him shoot up most of his bullets.
 I was quite favorably impressed. We were expecting it to be more on the level of a pellet gun, but that idea died w/the first shot. Too bad I didn't get one for myself. (Shoulda, woulda, coulda and I'd a been a jillionair.)
