North American Arms Green Huntsman Conversion 2″ 5rd
About this product
What is the North American Arms Green Huntsman Conversion 2" 5rd? It's a compact single-action mini revolver finished in OD Green Cerakote designed for discreet carry and mechanical reliability. This 8.90 oz firearm features a 2-inch vent rib barrel and fixed Marble Arms sights in a package measuring just 5.88 inches overall length. Built on a steel frame with a 5-round cylinder, it represents one of the smallest production revolvers currently available on the market.
What is the North American Arms Green Huntsman used for?
The Green Huntsman serves as a deep-concealment backup firearm or trail gun for snake shot. Its single-action operation requires deliberate cocking of the exposed hammer before each shot, making it unsuitable for rapid defensive use but excellent for precision plinking or finishing game. The 2-inch barrel limits effective range to approximately 7-10 yards with standard .22LR ammunition, though the fixed sights provide adequate alignment within that distance.
How does the North American Arms Green Huntsman compare to the Stevens 334 Rifle?
The Green Huntsman offers entirely different utility than the Stevens 334 Rifle in .308 Win, trading long-range capability for extreme concealability. Where the Stevens 334 delivers effective energy at 200+ yards with its 20-inch barrel, the Huntsman's 2-inch barrel produces approximately 650 fps velocity with standard velocity .22LR—adequate for close-range small game but not comparable to centerfire rifle performance. The Stevens platform better serves hunters needing ethical takedown power, while the Huntsman excels as a minimalist survival tool.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
The unloaded weight is precisely 8.90 ounces with an overall length of 5.88 inches. The cylinder width measures 1.25 inches across the flutes, and the grip frame extends 3.75 inches from trigger guard to butt. These dimensions make it approximately 40% smaller in every dimension compared to standard J-frame revolvers, allowing it to disappear in a pocket or ankle holster where larger firearms would print noticeably.
Who is this NOT for?
This revolver is not for anyone seeking a primary defensive firearm or rapid follow-up shots. The single-action mechanism requires manual hammer cocking before each shot, adding approximately 1.5 seconds per round to engagement time compared to double-action revolvers. It also lacks the capacity for modern defensive ammunition—the 5-round cylinder cannot accommodate .22 Magnum conversions, limiting it to standard velocity .22LR loads only.
What's in the box?
The package includes the revolver itself, one 5-round cylinder, and a padded zippered case. Unlike the Stevens 555 Sporting shotgun which includes choke tubes and detailed manuals, the Huntsman ships with minimal documentation—just a basic safety leaflet and warranty card. No cleaning tools or additional grips are included, reflecting its minimalist design philosophy.
Is the North American Arms Green Huntsman worth it at $438.99?
At $438.99, this revolver commands premium pricing for what is essentially a niche tool. The Cerakote finish and precision machining justify some cost, but buyers should recognize they're paying for specialized concealment rather than general-purpose performance. For those needing absolute minimum profile carry where even micro-compact pistols are too large, the price reflects its unique position in the market—but it's not cost-effective as a primary firearm.

Frequently asked questions
- Does it fit in a standard pocket holster?
- Yes, the 5.88-inch overall length and 1.25-inch cylinder width allow it to fit most small revolver holsters. Specifically, it fits DeSantis Nemesis and Sticky Holsters designed for NAA mini revolvers without modification. The cobblestone rubber grip provides enough texture to prevent shifting in a pocket.
- Is it compatible with .22 Magnum cylinders?
- No, the Green Huntsman model is specifically chambered for .22 Long Rifle only. North American Arms produces separate models for .22 Magnum, and the cylinders are not interchangeable due to different frame dimensions and pressure ratings. Attempting to install a Magnum cylinder would require gunsmithing and void the warranty.
- How long does shipping take to Montana?
- Shipping to Montana typically takes 3-5 business days via FedEx Ground after FFL verification. All firearms ship from our Utah warehouse within 24 hours of cleared payment and FFL receipt. We require signature confirmation upon delivery per ATF regulations.
- Can I return it if it doesn't fit my hand?
- Returns are accepted within 30 days for unused firearms in original packaging, but you must cover both shipping and a 15% restocking fee. Since grip size is subjective, we recommend handling one at a local dealer first—the grip circumference measures 4.25 inches, which suits average male hands but may feel small for larger shooters.
