A S&W SW22 Victory would be another to consider. They breakdown super easy and are reliable accurate pistols. My brother in law has one and I burn up most of his ammo every time I visit.

I like your style also. A very nice pistol and you've got it set up just right. Who makes the holster?

My new Buckmark Lite arrived today and there is a $25 rebate on it too.

FreeMe: The new MK-IV's also have the ambidextrous safety, spring ejected magazines (for those of us troubled by numb and/or arthritic fingers), fiber optic (changeable colors) sights (in the Hunter model) and the trigger is AT LEAST as good as my older MK's if not better.
I will take some out and compare them when I get a chance.
Again (I have posted this before on a couple other threads here) the machining is just flat out amazing - I hope it carries through to the reaming and rifling of the barrel - I will check this with my friends Hawkeye Borescope soon as well.
AND... they just LOOK better to me.
Go look at one of these in a shop (in good light!) and disassemble it and look at the amazing machining "inside" the MK-IV.
You will be impressed.

Scanning gunbroker for some of the vintage High Standards might be worth the trouble if you're a fan of .22 auto pistols.

Thanks, VarmintGuy. I'm going to look into it. It will have a way to go to beat my MKIII Hunter with VQ and Clark internals though. I'll be interested to see how yours performs.

I have both a BM and a Mk III Hunter. Both have been great guns for me.

He used my pistol to make his pattern for the scoped Buckmark. His shoulder rig is modular in that you can swap out multiple holsters and go from belt carry to a Tanker style rig.

in an effort to find a pistol i misplaced in the gunsafe, i actually straightened it out yesterday, and ran across a few 40's vintage hi standards. They remain pretty nice in my opinion.

Both are good pistols, you can't go wrong. I have the Buckmark Plus UDX in stainless steel.

Just hope your Buckmark never needs parts.

Mine is now out of commission, "Parts on backorder, no estimated date of delivery".

Not acceptable for a current production firearm.

What part do you need, and where did you order from?

Recoil/firing pin spring assembly
Front sight screw

Brownell's and Browning

I'm not going to chase around trying to find parts for a current production firearm. That's not the point. It isn't urgent, it's the principle of a manufacturer providing reliable support.
