    I don't think you can beat a Buckmark. Great little 22's.

      Great little handgun. I picked up a BM stainless UDX a few months ago and it's a straight shooter. be careful at tear down, the recoil spring retention clip has a tendency to shoot off if you're not careful. May want to order a couple extra directly from Browning. I have a few that are still on backorder.

        Nice pair! Camper SS with the bulls-eye barrel and is that a BM Challenge? I don't think I have seen one of those before...

          These have come loose on both of my Buckmarks.
          Might as well do the one under the barrel is well.
          ^^^^^I think this happens with all Buckmarks. I had this very same model, I could shoot a dime holding the gun off a sand bag at 25 ft. consistently. My gun was more accurate than I could ever shoot, especially after I did the trigger job spring flip. I put a tactical solutions ultra light barrel on it it was bad ***, I think it weighed in about 17 oz. I used it for backpacking. Be very careful not to strip any of the hex screws. Instructions for the trigger job are over at rimfire central very easy to do. My gun liked the CCI standard vel

            I found this rare and now impossible to find 7" barrel. It's transformed the weapon, it's perfectly balanced, much lighter and more accurate.

              Nice, I am already thinking that might be my first upgrade since it is so easy to do. Probably just the buck mark factory 7.25. Those Trail-lites are a pretty penny!

                The stock 7.25 is really heavy, the gun shines with a lighter barrel.

                All the best,

                  Weird, your picture shows on my home computer but not at work.

                  No, not all stocking stuffers. The shield was kind of a X-mas present to myself since SSE was ending.

                  They were all unfired at the time of the picture though. The M&P 9 and the Buck Mark had been sitting in the safe waiting for me to get out to the range.

                  I gotta' tell ya'... that was a fun day at the range with three new toys to try out.

                    I bet! I have no patience when it comes to trying out new toys. Both of my previous purchases have gone straight from the gun shop to the range and I am sure my buckmark will as well.

                    Apparently there was a delay in shipping so I won't be DROS until tomorrow which means I won't be able to pick it up until Tuesday April 7
                    (shops closed on monday)...oh well I go shooting during the week all the time!

                      It's not because I have anything remotely resembling patience, I just don't care much for indoor ranges anymore.

                      I prefer to make a day of it, shooting tin cans, steel, paper, golf balls, etc. outside with no one telling me how fast I can fire or if I can use a holster or not.

                      Once in a while I'll go to the range right down the hill from my house, but I have to be having gunpowder withdrawals pretty bad.

                        You will live it! I shot mine for the first time today at some 6 inch plates about 25 yards away today. Man what a blast! RSO remarked " it's not cool to be that good a shot"! Man did this gun make me look like a dead-eye! Then I tried with my lc9 and I couldn't hit the side of a barn! Darn long trigger pull! Now I want another one!

                          Just a quick follow up, went to the gun range and came home a happy camper. My buck mark camper shot flawlessly, shot around 200 rds through it of cci's, fed match, rem gb, win 333, cci blazers without a hiccup. Also would like to mention how accurate it was. The buck mark is everything other has claim it to be.

                            Sweet. Can't wait to go check mine out tonight, get the process started.

                              Take a hex key with you to the range. The take down screw tends to get loose after about 150 rds.
