Who Designed the Browning Buckmark Air Pistol?

Who designed this pistol?

It's prolly made in China, but who was the brains behind it?

I don't know who designed it.  But I can tell you it's not a bad shooter.  The trigger is horrible but overall it's a nice plinking gun for the price.

It is a great plinker, not sure who actually designed it. As mentioned, the trigger is horrible out of the box, as is the auto safety. You can access the trigger mechanism without needing a spring compressor. Smooth the components without removing excess material. Shorten the springs too, just a coil or two. It'll give you a much better trigger.

Mine actually loves the Winchester alloy pellets, in fact, it is the only airgun I have that shoots them well. Another quirk of this airgun is it is very pellet size sensitive. If you have a tight fitting pellet, it'll shoot very low and very slow. It seems to prefer lighter, looser fitting ammo.

I use a pellet-seater to help the Buckmark overcome the initial resistance of pushing the pellet from the breech into the barrel. I can gain about 20 fps with more consistency this way.

Interesting information here. It is made in Taiwan, so that is pretty good, if you ask me.
Looking at YouTube videos, not much useful there in terms of accessing trigger spring(s) and still do not know how much material should be taken off receiver trigger linkage. Anyone care to specify?

Other than the 8 pound trigger, it is a good value and fun. Still not sure how accurate but definitely not bad. We only have about 150 alloy pellets through it so far, but just installed a Red Dot.
