Diamondback Sidekick .22LR/.22WMR Revolver - Have you shot one?

[SheepDog4Life]

So American Rifleman came in the mail today with the Diamondback Sidekick featured. I had been thinking about picking up a Heritage Roughrider just to have a .22 LR/WMR revolver to play with and for newer shooters. Then I saw this, now I'm pretty stoked to put my hands on one since it has the "extra" features of:

• SA/DA
• Swingout cyclinder
• 9 round cyclinders
• Comes with the .22 WMR cyclinder in the box

Here's a good review from The Hide, pretty sure he's an INGO member:



Anyone have one and have thoughts on it?

I handled a couple. If the trigger works itself in it shouldn’t be a bad shooter and for no more than they are going for they should be popular

You got me wanting one now! Fairly attractive option as far as features. Curious to hear how well these run. The swing out cylinder is attractive to me just because loading the small 22 cartridges is kinda tedious on a single action.

Adjustable rear sight option would be nice.
