Phoenix Arms is a
BATF as one of the "Ring of Fire" companies, known for producing inexpensively-manufactured firearms often given the pejorative term "Saturday night special".[2]
Phoenix initially continued production of the MP-25, Raven's flagship model,[1] before later replacing it with two new pistols, the HP22A and HP25A, chambered in .22 LR and .25 ACP, respectively. The pistols are constructed of injection-molded Zamak, a zinc alloy.
