When it comes to survival firearms, we're big fans of .22 LR. This caliber is very inexpensive, easy to find at most sporting goods retailers, easy to shoot accurately, produces low recoil, and it's perfect for taking down small game in survival scenarios. Also, many of these rimfire weapons can be suppressed to produce an extremely soft muzzle report, which means you won't alert everyone in your vicinity if you're out hunting varmints or shooting targets.

The Browning Buck Mark Lite UFX includes a TRUGLO fiber-optic front sight and machined Buck Mark logo.

Browning has announced the expansion of its Buck Mark .22 LR pistol line with eight new models, ranging from the affordable Practical URX to the premium Field Target. The .22 pistol is made in the USA with a machined aluminum frame, reliable blow-back action, precise single-action trigger, and adjustable sights.

The Browning Buck Mark Field Target Suppressor-Ready includes a threaded barrel and cocobolo target grips.

The Field Target is available in either Suppressor-Ready (pictured above) or standard format. It includes an integral optics base, Pro-Target rear sight and blade front sight, and laminated cocobolo wood grips. MSRP for the threaded barrel model is $600, while the standard non-threaded model is $580.
