They are beginning to ship the pre-sale firearms now and into the next couple of weeks. After that, I suspect the will begin to show up at distributors and dealers. I got my pre-order Earl yesterday. Very cool. It could possibly become my favorite NAA mini (and I have quite a few, include a couple of the black powder companions). The octagonal barrel is very cool. So is the fake loading lever (which secures the cyldiner pin). I was also pleasantly surprised by the nice leather flap holster. It's soft leather that almost feels like vinyl, because it's so soft, but it's not. Fits the Earl very well and protects it nicely. I recommend it.

"The Earl" is an entirely new design (to us). It is possible that it, too, will be offered in black powder, but no timetable has been set for this possible iteration.

I wonder if this is based on the blackpowder version, and the loading lever was already there? I’ve seen a similar gun in blackpowder, and I think it was from NAA.
