Got a chance to pick up a Beretta Tomcat .32 from a friend for a sweet price. Basically new. .32 is a little small, but I cannot believe the accuracy. You can shoot the eyes out of a bug with it. Some say it is the original pocket gun before all these new ones came out.
My theory is that one .32 hollow point to the neck is better than a bunch of 9mm airballs. Any body have one?
Opinions?

I had the 21 in 22 LR and it was a fun accurate gun to shoot. My only objection was no extractor due to the tip up barrel. I don't think it is much bigger than my 22 was. I really liked the double action. With the 21 I could keep all shots on the NRA 50 foot target at 50 foot. By a box of ammo whenever you can to keep it stockpiled. Now you can be like BAD, BAD LEROY BROWN Now Leroy he a gambler And he like his fancy clothes And he like to wear his diamond rings Upon everybody's nose He got a custom Continental He got an Eldorado too He got a thirty two gun in his pocket for fun He got a razor in his shoe

Checked out ammo prices on good .32 - ouch, that might be a stopper. But dang it, I like that little thing...might trade a Mossberg 500 Crusader I don't use for it.
It is so nice to shoot something that puts rounds effortlessly on target

Saw some at Walmart, FMJs for around $30 / 50. Do you reload? It should be a cheap round to reload for your practice shooting. Probably 2 or less grains per round so you would get 3500 or so rounds per pound.

I do have a Beretta Tomcat, and do like it. I've been a long time Beretta fan, but haven't bonded with the PX4 Storm yet. Well, I do have the CX4 storm, but this is the rifle form; it's sweet.
I'm glad you got a good deal on a nice little gun.

Well I am torn between the Tomcat and a Ruger LCRx. I have .38 pistols but no .32. I want that Tomcat but I am trying to limit the types of ammo I have to keep. I guess I will flip a coin...

I don't know anything about the LCRx, but it's hard to go wrong with a Ruger too. You are more than welcome to borrow mine to shoot it and see if you like it.
