NEOS or BUCKMARK

[1/2 cocked]

Howdy,

Anybody have a point of view on a 41/2" NEOS versus 4"Micro Buckmark??

[aarondhgraham]

There will be some who disagree with me,,,
But as far as quality goes they are both very fine handguns,,,
I doubt you will experience a whit of real difference in their performance.

I shoot my friends Buckmark all the time,,,
He shoots my NEOS all the time,,,
Neither has an advantage.

Both of the pistols are more accurate than we are,,,
Both digest any ammo we buy for them,,,
Both are aesthetically pleasing,,,
My NEOS being cooler. ;)

So my advice to you is to handle both of the pistols,,,
Pay attention to which fits your hand the best,,,
Buy the one that fits your grip,,,
And tickles your fancy.

To me, the main advantage of a .22 is to sharpen your shooting skills for your centerfire pistol.

The Buckmark is a great trainer for many combat pistols with it's control layout, grip angle, etc. The Neos is not like any combat pistol that I can think of.

So, for me, it would be the Buckmark hands-down.

I'm a shameless Buckmark fan so my answer is probably pretty obvious :D

Another shameless buckmark fan....its a great choice for a .22 autoloader.

I'll throw in a vote for the Buckmark.

It looks and feels great!

Buckmark.

Hands-down the best .22lr semi-auto you can buy for everyday usage.

The S&W 41 takes the cake for .22lr pistols as a whole, but for someone on a plinking budget, the Buckmark ranks #1.

I don't know anything about the Neos. I don't even think I've ever picked one up.

However, I regularly roll tundra rats (parky squills) at ranges I can barely see them with a Buckmark Camper. :D

[nefprotector]

I like the Neos. Rails, sights everything that you need already installed on the gun. Buckmark? You buy accessories seperate.

Most people are somewhat surprised when they do pick up a NEOS,,,
They have very slender grips and fit small hands nicely.

One of the members at my range has a nine year old daughter who is phenomenally accurate with a 4” NEOS,,,
He shoots a 4” S&W 21A that his daughter can’t hit the ground with,,,
The S&W has fat grips that are too big for her hands,,,
The NEOS grips fit her little hands perfectly.

the Buckmark has been around for a long time. The buckmark has a very nice aftermarket for upgrades and parts.

+ 1 for buckmark

[andrsnsm]

Buckmark for me too. Neos is less expensive but the Buckmark rocks!

[zombieslayer]

Browning Buckmark- sweet, sweet pistols.

[James K]

Between the NEOS and the Buckmark, take the Ruger. Seriously, of the two, pick the Buckmark. The NEOS design has been peddled around for years and IMHO never has been any good.

[EdInk]

I second the Ruger. The Browning would be my second choice.

Hmmmm, let's see here...

Space age laser blaster or classy, simple, reliable and best stock S/A trigger I can think of?

I'd say Buckmark is the way to go. I love mine.


Anybody think the NEOS sorta looks like one of these new age running shoes....?

NEOS or BUCKMARK

I've got both and both guns have been reliable and good values. I prefer the Buckmark. It is more ergonomic and has a better trigger.
