Title: Early Christmas/Post Election Present
Post by: MI VHNTR on December 01, 2016, 06:37:36 PM
My new Browning Buckmark Lite finally arrived today. It's got a 5.5" fluted barrel that's aluminum with a steel liner and a Tru Glo front sight.. Great price and a $25 rebate from Browning. It's much lighter than my SS Browning Buckmark 4" Micro Bull. Out to camp this weekend for break in.

Shouldn't it be under the tree yet?
Looks a little weird but should give years of good service.
Shells getting easier to find?

I love my slab sided buckmark.
I bet that aluminum frame should really cut down on the weight.

And yeah shouldn't that be under the tree?

At under two pounds that should be a nice light carry and it does look nice.  I too think it should be under a tree - being fired in the forest.

Hopefully, it will be under a few trees on Sunday when I take it to camp for some shooting. I have heard that some 22 LR ammo is getting easier to find now. Cabelas and Bass Pro have had some on sale during the shopping season.

I like it. It looks light and comfortable.
