The Browning Buckmark is one of those iconic pistols that you can easily identify by sight. A proven plinker, competition shooter, and yes, even home defense gun, (just sit down). The Buckmark is an affordable, quality pistol. Yet it is on the higher end of the price scale versus most other .22’s. However, it will also provide many years of enjoyment.
So, what if we could make this firearm even better?
With the plethora of aftermarket accessories available for guns today, the Buckmark is no exception. Here are seven very cool options that can make your vanilla plinker into a custom supershooter!
Browning Buckmark Trail-Lite Barrels
by Tactical Solutions 
This replacement barrel is made from a single piece of machined aluminum, which will save overall pistol weight. At the same time, it offers you the thickness of a full bull barrel to ensure improved accuracy. This firearm also comes with a target front sight installed. However, I recommend that you see below for a for a better option. One of the best features of this gun is the pre-threaded muzzle. This allows you to add a compensator (again, see below) or other threaded muzzle accessory (anyone live in a state where suppressors are legal?).
Additionally, this gun also includes thread protector, if no accessory is used on the barrel.
Browning Buckmark Trail-Lite Compensator
by Tactical Solutions
Like any good compensator, this little device will take on the job of redirecting gasses from the muzzle blast out and around evenly. This will control the muzzle jump as well as the recoil of the gun, allowing you to take a faster follow-up shot.
Buckmark Extra Magazine by Browning 
Extra magazines are always important to have with any pistol. These extra mags allow you to keep more lead going downrange without having to stop and keep reloading. Not to mention the possibility of loss, damage or technical failure, extra mags will keep you shooting more and set your mind at ease. If you ever intend to shoot in a handgun competition with your Browning Buckmark, extra mags are an absolute must.
Fiber Optic Gun Sights by Williams

As an alternative to the standard target sights that come with your Buckmark, (which are decent enough on their own), I have found that fiber optic sights can add that something extra to your target and sight pickups with a nice, bright dot to focus on. The more light, the brighter the rods glow. These sites offer a three dot sight picture for you to see. The front sight has red insert, while the rear has two green inserts. These are direct replacements for the factory sights and are rear-sight adjustable as well.
Buckmark Picatinny Scope Mount
by Tactical Solutions
Amazon Product Link
If open sights are not enough for you, consider a rail option for mounting optics. This lightweight, aluminum, Picatinny rail is a replacement for the factory rear sight so that you can mount any kind of Picatinny mountable optic, It still offers an adjustable rear sight, which is included on the rail! The best of both worlds. Even better, this part requires no-gunsmithing.
Buckmark Weaver Scope Mount
by Weigand Combat
Amazon Product Link
Like the rail above, this allows you to mount an optic on your pistol that utilizes weaver-style rings or connections. Likewise, this rail mounts directly into the factory rear-sight holes. However this one does not offer rear open sights. Again, no permanent alterations or gunsmithing is required to use this rail.
Target Grips by Browning
Depending on which Buckmark model you have, it may have come with some very nice contoured or target grips. But options still abound in choices for replacements. From wood to rubberized to laminated, there are grips to fit every hand and every style of shooting from one handed accuracy shooting to fast target transitions. All you have to find is the one that works best for you.
If the Browning Buckmark is the gun of choice then you should never feel restricted in the accessories and aftermarket parts that are available to you. The list above is merely a taste of the components available for your pistol.
