DATA RECORD
Date: 17 March 1997
-SAAMI Drop Test-
ANSI/SAAMI Z299.05-1990
(Pistols and Revolvers)
Gun Description: North American Arms, Inc. .22 Magnum
Procedure, Drop Test - Drop with full magazine, chambered
primed case and in "safe carrying" condition from a
height of 4 feet (measured from guns' center of gravity) onto
a concrete surface with a 1 inch thick rubber mat (85 Durometer,
Shore A). Testing of guns with variable trigger pull will be conducted
with the trigger pull set at a minimum recommended by manufacturer
(Note: This test does not apply to guns with a design trigger
pull of less than 3 pounds.) The complete test MAY be conducted
using a different gun for each drop of the test. The complete
series of drops are to be conducted with the gun in its lightest
and heaviest configurations, ie, catalogued accessories and fully
loaded. Prior to the initial drop of this test, each gun will
successfully fire 10 cartridges from the same lot of ammunition
to be used in the drop testing. Subsequent to each drop which
does not result in a discharge, the gun will be re-cocked (if
necessary) and fired to demonstrate the suitability of the test
cartridge's priming system.
