The Diamondback Sidekick 22/22M revolver is a versatile rimfire wheelgun built for shooters who want reliable, fun range time or small-game hunting without breaking the bank. This 5.5-inch barrel revolver handles both .22 LR and .22 Magnum ammunition (the cylinder converts between calibers), giving you flexibility to shoot what's in your ammo box—or choose based on your day's mission. With a 9-round capacity and smooth SA/DA action, the Sidekick delivers the familiarity of a traditional revolver platform in a surprisingly modern package.

The desert sage Cerakote finish is as practical as it looks: tough enough for field carry and carries a tactical aesthetic without the weight penalty you'd get from a steel frame. That zinc alloy construction keeps the gun light—just 32.5 ounces—yet solid enough to handle regular trigger time. The checkered, glass-filled nylon grips are comfortable during extended shooting sessions and resist the elements. You get simple fixed sights (blade front, integral rear) that do exactly what they need to do: get you on target without unnecessary complexity.

Whether you're introducing someone new to revolvers, plinking at the range, or hunting rabbits and squirrels, the Sidekick's manageable recoil and straightforward controls make it genuinely approachable. The single-action trigger breaks at a crisp 2 pounds, and double-action sits at a reasonable 16 pounds—both feel natural for a rimfire revolver of this class. At under 11 inches overall, it's compact enough to carry or stow without fuss.
