I went ahead and ordered this last night.

Should be here in a couple of days. Reminds me of the Hi-Standard double nine I had for a few years.

I learned something new. I wasn't aware Diamond back made revolvers,

While I shoot my other .22 revolvers fairly often (Colt Frontier Scout 6-shooter, Taurus M990 9-shot, S&W M317 8-shot and Heritage Roughrider 6-shooter)… I think having this fun little Diamondback Sidekick 9-shot double action (that looks like a single action) will be a great addition to the family.

here’s the others just for fun…

The D.B will give Ruger and Heritage a run for their money.

I'll admit it! I've watched the growth of your armory and I'm impressed although I imagine that you spend a lot of time cleaning guns.

I could deal with this. I need to look closer at them.

News to me, first I heard of them. I'm always interested in .22 handguns. Make sure you post a range report. I tend toward semi-automatics, but there are revolvers in the herd.

.22 is good on any platform. I almost ordered one of those sidekicks but there was a reason I didn’t. Can’t remember what it was… is it cerakoted maybe?

Has it arrived? Any updates on it?

Interested in getting one of these, but none of the local stores have it, and it's going for well above MSRP online.

Mainly interested in quality and reliability.

Thanks,

You can always check on gunbroker for an auction or a “ buy it now” special price.
I have to keep telling myself to,stay off GB because I’m weak. I won a Hatsan 20ga semiautomatic last night for $235. NIB. I know………I’m weak and can’t resist a deal.

Maiden voyage— for five guns

Between traveling to visit sick relatives and then being sick myself for a few weeks… I haven’t been shooting in quite a while. I took five guns out this afternoon that I had acquired recently (but not yet shot). Intercontinental Arms Super Dakota 7.5” .44mag Diamondback Sidekick 9-shot .22lr...

Interesting .22 offering, I haven't seen one locally yet but keep looking. Might be a nice addition, I have a S&W 617 4" I bought, waiting fo my 3 permits to come through to bring home. Let us know your impressions, the videos on YouTube I saw look good.
