What Would You Buy?

[ennfuego]

I am trying to decide which .22 handgun to buy. I'm down to three very different choices:

1) Smith & Wesson M&P .22

2) Browning Buck Mark 7.25" barrel

3) Beretta Neos 6" barrel (not currently on the CA list, but I might have a PPT available to me.)

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Thanks.

Browning Buck Mark. A long history of being a very well designed pistol not to mention the fun of shooting things smaller then a beer can. Buy the BBM, add nice grips and maybe even an optic. Impress your freinds and make wimmins want you.

I would go with the Buckmark because parts and magazines are easier to find.

Thanks for the input - that was my front-runner, but they are impossible to find right now - a lot of other .22's around, but no one has this one.

No experience in any of them but I would go with the Browning Buck Mark.

A friend of mine has the Browning and it is really nice.
I just ordered the M&P 22 because it feels more like a larger caliber pistol. If your are looking to plink - get the browning. If you are looking for a practice pistol for reloading and working the slide and pull from the holster, get the M&P.

I've had my Buck Mark for about 2 weeks and love it. playing with ammo to see what it likes best. so far blazer has no issues and federal bulk has a few FTF once in awhile.

love the accuracy, weight, and looks. i held the others and just didn't like them compared to the BBM.

I am going to go against the grain here. NEOS! I miss mine! Alot! Just purchased a Ruger 22/45 Mark III, and stock to stock, the NEOS was better for me. The 22/45 needs alot of mods to be as smooth and comfortable as the Beretta.

Buckmark. Accurate, reliable, tons of fun!

Browning Buckmark. Keep looking you'll find it! I wont be in competition to buy it before you because I just picked mine up out of jail today! I cant wait to shoot it!

[ennfuego]

Thanks again for all the input. It looks like the BBM is the fan favorite. Those of you who bought the BBM, was it online or local?

Well I hate to toot my own horn, but a Browning Buckmark Silhouette has been winning the almost all of the Cal Guns Rimfire Pistol matches since last July. I have been shooting this gun in Bullseye Competitions since the early 90's and I love it. That's my choice

and oh yeah, it's had a little work one.

Great looking gun!
