Default New Buckmark for Wife

Here's the deal. My wife wanted a .22 for range practice so I bought a Browning Buckmark like the one I already own.

The, I ordered a Tactical Solutions 5.5" fluted barrel and matching grips in Purple.
Then I had the slide & mag release and other small parts duracoated in silver, did a Hegis trigger spring flip to lighten the pull from 4.7 to 2.6 lbs. If she wants I have a Reddot we can mount and I have a picatinny rail from Tactical Solutions w/integral rear adj. sight I can change out for the standard Buckmark sight.
She hasn't seen it yet, been hiding it for her as part of her Christmas!

Your wife will love that Buckmark! I'm very happy with the Buckmark project I did last summer. They are just great pistols and you can make them much better. I bet the trigger job is great. To me the stock triggger on a Buckmark is much better than the factory trigger on a Ruger MkIII. Congratulations on building her such a nice pistol!

By the way, all of the add-ons are no gun smith required. All are bolt/screw on, I did zero changes except the Hegis spring flip and there's YouTube instructions for doing that.
