Description
The Browning Buck Mark Contour URX .22 LR — 7.65 in Threaded is a factory-ready pistol built for accurate target shooting and suppressor use right out of the box. It pairs a contoured stainless steel barrel with an alloy frame and URX synthetic grips, giving you a stable platform for both iron-sight and red-dot setups. The threaded muzzle (1/2-28) accepts standard suppressors and compensators, and the adjustable Pro-Target sights let you dial in your point of impact without swapping parts.

Key Features
- Threaded 7.65-Inch Barrel: Why it matters — the 1/2-28 threads let you attach a suppressor or compensator without a gunsmith, keeping the barrel long enough for a stable sight radius and reduced muzzle blast.
- Picatinny Optics Rail: Why it matters — you can mount a red dot or reflex sight directly to the slide, giving you faster target acquisition and a consistent cheek weld without modifying the pistol.
- Adjustable Pro-Target Sights: Why it matters — these steel sights allow windage and elevation adjustments with a screwdriver, so you can zero for different ammo types or distances without replacing the front sight.
- URX Synthetic Grips: Why it matters — the ergonomic, textured panels provide a secure hold even with sweaty hands, reducing fatigue during extended range sessions and improving control during rapid fire.
Who It’s For
This pistol is aimed at shooters who want one .22 LR that handles both precision target work and suppressor-ready plinking. If you’re a new shooter building fundamentals with a red dot, a rimfire competitor working on transitions, or a hunter looking for a quiet small-game gun with a can, the Buck Mark Contour URX fits that role without needing aftermarket parts.
Pros & Cons
- Pro: Factory-threaded barrel with included thread protector saves you the cost of a separate barrel or smith work.
- Pro: Adjustable rear sight and optics-ready rail make it easy to switch between iron and dot sights.
- Con: The alloy frame can show holster wear faster than steel, so take care if you carry it in a tight Kydex rig.
