Still lovin' my M1860 “The Earl” mini revolver.
This thread I posted back when I got it (coming close to its third birthday now…).
I'll just copy the one image from the thread:

Great little guns, I find the trigger on mine to be a little gritty, but its very accurate if you do your part, and its a hoot with the mag cylinder

Is it weird that I want one of these so badly?
I was going to buy one for the wife and stopped in at a site sponsor and was actually talked out of buying one. Out of the Earl the side winder and the mini master I liked the mini master best. I may eventually get one for myself. Going to take the wife next time I go back

I love my NAA Earl. Unpacking it at the range, people just look over and go WTF!
Locked gun case, trigger lock, and then this teeny tiny little popgun comes out

When the now gone Kodiak Arms brought in the first batch I just HAD to get one. The "family" picture below will show why. The full size Remington New Army guns are one of my pairs that I use for cowboy action shooting. It's always great fun to take them out and make some smoke. So when I saw the lil' Earl I just knew right off that I needed one.
As for accuracy there's not much to hold onto and the spur trigger is HEAVY! But once I figured it all out I found that I can manage to produce roughly 5 to 6 inch groups at 20 yards. And I suspect the gun itself is better than that but it's the residual grip and trigger pull problems that prevents me from doing even better.
And yes, it is a heap of fun to shoot these little guys. Mine sees fairly regular use at the range.
