    The Beretta 21A (Bobcat) Inox — my new BUG.

    Hmmm... I'll have to buy a box of Punch and see how it runs then, thanks!

    The Beretta 21A (Bobcat) Inox — my new BUG.

    Really? I've heard that both Punch and Uppercut don't feed reliably due to the longer cases. In fact, I saw some videos of both rounds being tested in a Beretta 21A, and they wouldn't feed at all. They always got stuck in either the chamber or the breach.

    The Beretta 21A (Bobcat) Inox — my new BUG.

    They've had their chance to fix it, I would request a replacement 43C at this point, and if that one is problematic, a refund.

    The Beretta 21A (Bobcat) Inox — my new BUG.

    Don't ask me, frankly I think Suppressors in general are a stupid waste of time. I briefly looked into getting a Suppressor for my AR-15, but was quickly turned off by the fact that they're ridiculously expensive for what they are, required an additional expense and waiting period, all for a...

    The Beretta 21A (Bobcat) Inox — my new BUG.

    Somehow I doubt that the 20X will have the same amount of staying power as the 21A. Beretta has a bad habit of attempting to upgrade/replace an iconic pistol with a "new and improved" model which utterly fails to sell as well as the classic model. (See the Beretta 90-TWO, 92A1, and M9A3 for...

    The Beretta 21A (Bobcat) Inox — my new BUG.

    According to the manual, although the magazine can hold a certain number of rounds, (IIRC, 8) it is only designed to hold one less (IIRC, 7) and therefore if you load the magazine until it cannot fit anymore rounds, it will malfunction because the top round isn't in the proper orientation to...

    Heavy Clothing Stops .38 Wadcutter!

    As someone who is subscribed to many firearms-related YouTube channels I can safely say that the vast majority of videos pertaining to firearms are either main to entertain or to generate buzz in order to bring in more viewers, ergo the vast majority of videos should be taken with a grain of...

    The Beretta 21A (Bobcat) Inox — my new BUG.

    Amusingly enough, the one on the Left was my first carry gun and the one on the right would be my present carry gun if I hadn't found the one in the center so cheap.

    The Beretta 21A (Bobcat) Inox — my new BUG.

    Yeah, as someone who has yet to have ever had to so much as draw a pistol, I feel I'm already adequately prepared as is, and therefore between all the variables, statistics, and probabilities involved, am not concerned over the possibility that I will find myself in a situation in which: a.) I...

    The Beretta 21A (Bobcat) Inox — my new BUG.

    It is important to not that my intended use for this is as a backup.to my M&P40 Shield (Spring/Summer) and M&P40 Compact (Autumn/Winter) ergo it would most likely only be deployed under dire circumstances in which I had already expended all the ammo loaded in my primary + spare magazines, and...

    The Beretta 21A (Bobcat) Inox — my new BUG.

    Thanks for the information, I'll keep that in mind. I tend to prefer Taurus as well, hence why I chose a PT92 over a 92FS. However, in this case, I prefer the Beretta 21A to the Taurus PT22 with its larger frame.

    The Beretta 21A (Bobcat) Inox — my new BUG.

    After years of carrying a Ruger LCP as a BUG and dragging my feet about buying defensive ammo for it due to the relatively high cost and poor performance of the average .380 JHP, I got to thinking that it was time to switch to something else. Unexpectedly, I found a Beretta 21A Inox at my LGS...
