Product Overview

The Diamondback Sidekick 22 revolver brings classic cowboy aesthetics together with modern versatility in a compact, manageable package. This 4.5" barrel revolver chambers both .22 LR and .22 Magnum through included convertible cylinders, giving you the flexibility to switch between standard and magnum power in seconds. Whether you're plinking at the range, hunting small game, controlling pests, or just enjoying affordable target practice, the Sidekick delivers the firepower you need without the recoil punishment of larger calibers.

Built on a zinc frame with a durable black Cerakote finish and checkered polymer grips, the Sidekick splits the difference between old-school style and modern shooter expectations. The cylinder release is integrated into the ejection rod for a clean, traditional look, while fixed blade front and integral rear sights keep you on target when speed matters. Single and double-action capability means you control the pace—fire deliberate shots or work the trigger for rapid follow-ups.

Nine-round capacity in both .22 LR and .22 Mag gives you three more shots than traditional six-gun designs, a real advantage whether you're working through a high-round training session or handling multiple targets. At 32.5 ounces and 9.875" overall length, this revolver sits comfortably between pocket-friendly and substantial, with 1:16 RH twist, 6-groove rifling for accurate, stable bullet flight. The Sidekick is a true convertible—grab one revolver, swap cylinders, and you've got a different gun entirely.

If you want a .22 revolver that doesn't sacrifice character for function, the Sidekick earns its place in the safe and on the trail.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I shoot both .22 LR and .22 Magnum in the same revolver?

Yes. The Sidekick comes with two interchangeable cylinders—one for .22 LR and one for .22 Magnum. You can swap between them in seconds without tools, giving you one revolver with two different power levels.

What's included in the box?

The Sidekick ships with both the .22 LR and .22 Magnum cylinders already included, so you're ready to use either caliber right out of the box.

Is this revolver good for hunting small game?

The Sidekick is well-suited for hunting small game, pest control, and other pursuits where .22 caliber is appropriate. The 9-round capacity and convertible cylinders give you flexibility across different hunting scenarios.

What's the trigger action like?

The Sidekick functions as both a single and double-action revolver. In double-action mode, you cock and fire with the trigger. Single-action allows you to manually cock the hammer for a crisp, deliberate shot.
