I had one that I got in the mid 80's that was also stolen around ' 91.  I had always planned on getting another but so far the "round tuit" hasn't appeared.  I have two of the Freedom Arms Belt Buckles with the clip for these little pistols.  Not sure why I have two of them but somenow I wound up with them.  I was never quite brazen enough to wear one in the buckle though.  Nice little pistols.  I used to do in armadillos with mine when on a walk-about around the farm.  Glad you were able to replace yours.  There always seems to be an "empty spot" when a nice little item like that is appropriated in such a way.

Congrats! I'd like to have one of those lil jewels myself. Maybe one day I'll be in the right place at the right time.

Take Care and Be Safe,

Freedom Arms mini 22 mag

Howdy Folks,
I was just reading through the forum looking for posts about the FA mini black powder revolver. I have one and it is a lot of fun to shoot. I came upon this topic about the mini 22 mag and some folks said they would like to have one. There is one on Auction Arms with a long barrel. I don't know anything about the seller except he has some negative feedbacks. If someone is interested, here is a link to the auction.

Have Fun, I do.

There's one at Action Gun in Melbourne, FL in .22 with the 1" barrel for $150.  It looks a little banged up, but not bad.

I've got one and mine only fires once and then the cylinder locks up and you have to take the cylinder pin out.  If you work the action without firing it, it cycles fine.  Anybody have any thoughts as to what the problem is?
