Diamondback Firearms Sidekick Birdshead .22 LR and .22 WMR Blue/Black Revolver

The Diamondback Firearms Sidekick is a classic-style rimfire revolver designed for plinking, small-game use, pest control, and recreational target shooting. Its 3-inch barrel and birdshead grip provide a compact, traditional profile, while the double-action operation supports both deliberate single-action shots and faster double-action fire. The revolver includes interchangeable 9-shot cylinders chambered in .22 LR and .22 WMR, giving shooters flexibility for different applications. A fixed front blade and integral rear sight offer a straightforward aiming system, and checkered polymer grip panels provide a secure hold. The Blue/Black finish adds corrosion resistance and complements the Sidekick's old-west styling.
