Here it is, next to its companion. They're inseparable, both go to the range at the same time.

I have a similar pair...

And the .32 is always with me.:)

Hmm. The image of my Desert Eagle and look-a-like Buckmark Contour seven inch isn’t working.

Luckily these two orphans I found along the road are pretty photogenic...;)

Have had a Ruger Mk iii Hunter (the red headed step child in the Mk series) which is very accurate rarely has a hiccup.
Just bought a new Buckmark Plus Speed. Will pick it up Friday. Looking forward to getting it to the range!

The Buckmark Camper was my first gun (Dad bought it for me) in the late '90's. I still have it and still shoot it, no telling how much ammo that thing has digested. I don't run the stock barrel on it, I run a threaded Tactical Solutions 4" barrel, it's much lighter and very accurate, plus I can shoot it suppressed.
 
I like the target models w the sear and trigger overtravel adjustment. But they want a lot more for em.

Ideally, get the target model and change the bull 5.5 for a field slab side 5.5.

Pops had the 5.5, 10 and 14" target models.
I had the cheap slab side. Weigand rail and gilmore reddot, shot it in IHMSA and yeah the rail would come loose.

Am thinking of getting the 5.5" contour model now.

Holster? Make one from Kydex
 
My Buck Mark is new and so far I have only fired CCI SV and Mini-Mag HV, Remington Thunderbolt, SK Pistol Match and Standard Plus, and Lapua Center-X through it. It seems to like the Mini-Mag the best but did not have any problems with any of them.

I bought a Buckmark when I was 18, my first gun purchase, and had it until I was 28. We were hunting Coyotes in SD and went in town for gas. While we were inside the store, it was stolen from the vehicle along with $300 cash from the glovebox. Dumb, on my part.
 
The majority of my .22 rimfire pistols are the Ruger Mark's, in several iterations that include all the model variations. This is the first Browning Buckmark pistol that I felt I had the NEED for;

This pistol will hold its own against my Rugers and even my only Smith & Wesson version I feel is worth a place in one of my safes:

Even though it is a bit spoiled and prefers Standard velocity CCI rimfire.
 
I use CCI Blazer in all of my 22lr pistols. It is cheap and accurate enough. I can't shoot any better with match grade 22lr unless the pistol (a Buckmark Varmit with 10" bull barrel and scope) is especially accurate. The Blazer is rather consistent also. I use CCI Std Vel in my rifles except for match shooting with a KK300. That one gets Ely or something else nice.
 
My buck mark shoots anything, but I now strictly use CCI or Aguila ammo only.

Tandemkross has nice leather holsters for the browning or ruger pistols and Tactical solutions make a nice kydex holster.
