Merry Christmas to me

[Wraith]

My wife bought me a Browning Buckmark Camper for xmas.

Grats!

Now THAT'S a Christmas present, boy will she be pissed when she sees the vacuum cleaner you got her

 

[Wraith]

No, she's getting a scanner and a digital picture frame to convert all her paper photos. That should take quite a while and give me plenty of garage time. Although I did get her a vacuum for her birthday one time.......

She should have made you wait until Christmas to open it!!!

Then it would miss the shoot this weekend, can't have that. Besides I'll be at the in-laws for xmas so nowhere to shoot.

 

[MadMo44Mag]

Very nice.
You can leave it with me while you're at the in-laws.
Promise I won't let it get lonely!

 

[Texas High Caliber]

Nice!

I just shot one of those for the first time this week. It's now on my short list and I will have one in the next month or two.

 

[Hawghauler]

Very nice. It has a unique look that exudes quality and utility.

Lacking instructions from Browning, there are complete instructions (with pictures) on another site to show how to dis-assemble, clean, and re-assemble your new present. You can also get instructions on a great trigger and sear job you can do yourself.
Buck Mark pistols are a great gift for any occasion and from the wife is even better.

Very nice Wraith

Cool! congrats. Just one question; Is that the one that is a 22 and the .45 or just the 22?

The Ruger 22/45 is only grip difference to make it similar to a 1911. It won't shoot 45.

Congrats. Let us know how it shoots. I'm on the lookout for a 22 pistol.

Yeah, the manual says not to disassemble, but then they give you a wrench meant for use to disassemble

Great gift.

Congrats!!! I used to have one, it was a blast to shoot. Only thing I ever did to it was, put Hi-Viz sights on it. Man...I miss that one...

Great gift.

Good thing I didn't read the instructions because I took it completly apart last night using their included allen wrench.
I was going to get a Ruger 22/45 but they were heralded as being difficult to disassemble, I wasn't too keen on the plastic grip, and also the barrel is the serialized part on the gun. That plays into future plans, after the new year I'm going to send the barrel out and have it threaded for a suppressor and it doesn't have to go FFL.
Is sunday here yet? I want to shoot this thing.

Have you checked out Tactical Solutions? You might be better off buying one of their barrels already threaded, that way your original barrel would remain stock. Dang--their barrels have gone up in price.

Meh, too much is made about how difficult it is to reassemble Ruger's. There's a couple of tricks that once you learn, make it very easy. But I like them both.. Rugers and Buckmarks that is.

Here's my set, although I did buy the Buckmark for my Sweetie.
