Diamondback DB Sidekick .22 LR/Mag Revolver 4.5"

The Diamondback DB Sidekick: A Dual-Caliber Workhorse

The Diamondback DB Sidekick represents a thoughtful approach to rimfire revolver design. This is a firearm built for shooters who value versatility without compromise.

Dual-Caliber Capability

The Sidekick's convertible cylinder system allows you to shoot both .22 LR and .22 Mag ammunition. This flexibility means a single firearm can serve multiple purposes—from casual plinking to small-game hunting—without requiring separate weapons.

Mechanical Specifications

Dimensions and Handling:

• 4.5-inch barrel length provides a balance between sight radius and maneuverability
• Overall length of 9.88 inches keeps the revolver compact and handy
• Weight of 32.5 ounces provides sufficient heft for controllable recoil without excessive bulk
• Height of 4.88 inches and width of 1.38 inches ensure comfortable handling for most shooters

Construction and Finish

The zinc alloy frame is finished with Cerakote, a ceramic-based coating that resists wear, corrosion, and the elements. The Jesse James Blue finish provides both aesthetic appeal and functional protection. Checkered polymer grip panels offer secure purchase in various shooting conditions.

A Practical Choice

The Sidekick is a revolver for shooters who understand that simplicity and reliability matter. Whether you're introducing a new shooter to firearms, practicing marksmanship, or hunting small game, this revolver delivers consistent performance.
