Buckmark has been around a lot longer than the Victory. I also like the simplicity of cleaning the Browning.
I believe that you would have to compare them yourself, just because I say one is better doesn't mean that the next person would say the total opposite
I won 11 of 12 slow fire pistol relays at the Gateway Dynamite shoot in 2003 with a Buckmark (made $110 for a $24 investment). The trigger and sights are good. The S&W is a comparable pistol but more money. I do not like the magazine disconnect on either gun. I'd opt for the Browning.
S&W by far I think. S&W has the Picatinny rail, fiber optic sights, two magazines, interchangeable barrel. Its no contest to me. The Browning is nice, but its the lesser gun between these two.
Is that really the question you want answered - better built? Or which is the better shooter, trainer, value? As for training and value the Beretta Neos was the winner in a resent Gun Tests review (bettering the S&W for one).
