Product Overview

The Diamondback Sidekick 22/22M is a versatile rimfire revolver built for shooters who want reliable, affordable trigger time without breaking the bank. This 5.5" revolver chambers both .22 LR and .22 Magnum with a convertible cylinder system, giving you flexibility to shoot either cartridge depending on your needs—practice rounds or a bit more velocity and energy. The dark gray Cerakote finish resists wear and corrosion, so it'll handle field use and storage without fussing over constant cleaning. Whether you're training new shooters, zeroing in at the range, or running casual plinker duties, the Sidekick delivers solid performance in a package that won't drain your wallet.

The 9-round capacity and ambidextrous single/double-action trigger system keep you in the game longer between reloads. Single-action pull is a crisp 2 pounds, while double-action runs 16 pounds—both are predictable enough for consistent shot placement. The 5.5" barrel and integral rear sight paired with a front blade sight give you a straightforward sighting system; no frills, no complications. At just 32.5 ounces and 10.88 inches overall length, the Sidekick sits comfortably in hand during extended range sessions without fatigue.

Built on a zinc alloy frame and fitted with checkered glass-filled nylon grips, this revolver strikes a practical balance between durability and weight. The 1:16 right-hand rifling twist is tuned for reliable bullet stabilization across the .22 LR and .22 Mag spectrum. If you're shopping for a no-nonsense rimfire revolver that handles both cartridges, shoots clean, and stays dependable through years of casual shooting, the Diamondback Sidekick is worth a close look.
