Default Beretta 21A on the way

I just won one of these on gunbroker, for what seems to be a decent price ($231 shipped). It's an older, blued model with the wooden grips, the finish looks worn and the grips probably need to be refinished. It's the tiny subcompact 22lr, about the size of a cellphone or wallet.

I didn't know I wanted one, until somebody brought one to the range recently and let us shoot it. He set up a 5" steel target at 15 yds and we each shot a magazine through it. For something so small, his had no business being so accurate- I was able to put 2 of 7 on steel standing offhand, and the others were close (would have been on paper, I was shooting slightly to about 7 o'clock). I was grouping pretty tight based on the impact, and I think with a little practice I could dial it in more. No, it isn't like my High Standard or Ruger Mk II, but those aren't so tiny either.

I'm looking at some stuff for it, might have a decent deal on some extra grips etc. I'll post pics when it comes in.
