    Just Jailed a Browning Buckmark

    My wife wanted a second gun with an optic for steel challenge. After consider what would have been an expensive mod to one of our 9mm 1911s we decided on the Buckmark. Rented one at Reed's to try; what a sweet shooting little gun (no lightweight though!). It will be hers in 9 days. C-More optic on the way. I sure hope I get to shoot it No fair comparing our iron sight 9mm times out of the holster with that thing for sure.

    Sweet. I was thinking about getting my wife a Buckmark but I got a great deal on a 22/45 from a fellow CGer. I'm sure she'll like it and pretty sure you'll be standing in line for a long time waiting to shoot it.

        Nice choice!

          My teenage daughter chose a Buckmark three years ago. She loves it and has never had a problem. Good Luck.

            I just picked up my first Buckmark from a CG'r. It's got a 14" barrel.

            Yes, I must be compensating for something

            You will never, in your life, have a chance like this again.
            If I were you, I would not pass this up. I would not let this go by...this is rare.
            Come on...what harm??

              That is awesome! An extremely accurate "assault" .22.

                Nice, my girl loves shooting the Buckmark. And your right; it's a heavy little sucker. Now imagine how much heavier with optics... As far as functionality, the Buckmark eats everything. If there are any FTF of FTE issues, it's the ammo. Enjoy

                  If you can find a Tac Sol barrel and scope rail you will eliminate a lot of the weight and possibly even increase the accuracy. Finding the barrel will be the hard part though. The supply is drying up.

                  The following statement is true.

                    Yep. I have a 10" Tac Sol and a scope on mine and it is lighter than the factory 5" with iron sights.

                        I think the Buckmark and the Ruger Mark III 22/45 are two of the better .22 LR guns out there. Because of the potential problems with the field stripping, I sold my Ruger 22/45 and kept my Buckmark Camper.

                        Both guns eat ALL ammo and are very accurate.

                        The only other .22 I wanted to shoot someday is the Walther PPQ .22 LR. Maybe when the California Gun roster is eliminated I will buy one

                          Love my Buckmark, it's what I teach new people to shoot on. If u can't hit with one you shouldn't be shooting.

                            Amen to that... Especially with optics. I call it my cheater gun.
