Browning Buckmark variations - which to buy?

[newbie1234]

I had three:
- Camper, very low price.
- Contour, optic mount built in with weaver rail, heavy help to aim for accuracy.
- Lite, mine is long barrel, very light and the most accurate of the three.
I use to shoot couple hundred rounds center fire first until I wear out (old age) then I grab the Lite, because it is light. The Lite is the one see the range most of the three.
But if you shoot out door more then get the Contour with Red Dot so you can shoot target at 20+ yards.
If you have a limit budget then get the Camper.
Don't forget to check out the Ruger Mark IV Target CA version (on roster) before make the purchase (or be a real Calguner, get BOTH )

I've got a TacSol rail for one in a box in the closet, so I'm still leaning towards just getting the cheapest camper, putting the rail and a red dot on it, and doing the 1911 grip mod. I like the look of the rosewood UDX slab side, but that's more than I want to spend.

I have enough Ruger Mk series to hold me over for now. Several barrel lengths and Mk series to pick from. The 10" MkII is great fun and the 6 7/8" stainless MkII is my most-shot pistol over the years, and I hardly ever take the Standard or MkI out of the safe.

Got this at sportsman?s warehouse last year and they had a wrong sticker price on it so I saved little over $100 because they had already done the paperwork.

This gun is super accurate and obviously recoil is nothing. Fiber optic sight would be brighter honestly. It doesn?t pop as much as I would like.

This is the one with the 7.15? barrel. I know sportsman sells a shorter version of this one as well but I wanted the barrel length for more accuracy.

I even won 1st place in my local range bullseye at 10 yards

Actually just yesterday managed to stumble across a reasonable priced Hunter model in a shops case and jumped on it. It came out to be just a little bit more than the new in-stock Camper model so I couldn't pass it up. I like that gray 7 1/4" lite version up there a lot, and the used Hunter has the long barrel and lower cost so I went with it. It'll be several weeks until I get a range report. Thanks everyone for info, your comments definitely helped in my search. I appreciate it!

Space gun! I was leaning towards the green Lite version, and it looked like there was one on the roster, but I didn't find it in stock anywhere online. I also really like the slab side look of some of them, but when I stumbled into the Hunter I figured I needed to just stop looking and thinking about it and do it.

The lite green urx looks like an outstanding choice.

I?ve had a couple I like my buckmark light with the 7.25 barrel really accurate with no red dot, can?t imagine how good it would be with a red dot

Really interested in the 7+" barrel. I dont see much reviews on the advantage of the longer barrel and downsides. care to share your experience viz a viz the other ones

Is the practical urx kali kompliant?

I like mine. Norma ammo with the wax coating is a problem as it won?t extract. The accuracy is great and the recoil is worse when I fart than when I shoot 22LR

Very easy to shoot quickly and keep an eye on the fiber optic sight. The fiber optics is a little cloudy wish it was brighter

The URX Practical is on the roster, and is available at many gun stores in CA.

I shot a magazine off the patio at some rocks off in the distance the other day and I like it. Been too dang busy to really put time into it yet. Hoping to slow down enough I can set up some targets and get it dialed in, as it was several inches high at 15ish yards. Feels good, looks good, I like it.

I just snagged this one:
