I'm new at this site so don't know much of what has been in the discussion. I ordered a Beretta Bobcat 21a Inox a short time ago, when I got and first tried to get the safety on I couldn't move it and it took both thumbs to get the barrel to release, I called the factory and was told to take it back to the dealer and that after 2-3 hundred rounds it should work fine! After doing a lot of research on the internet I found several issues with the safety and the barrel release being very stiff. When I took the gun back to the dealer he said the tolerances are so close they have to be wore-in, and said to take the safety spring and plunger out and file the point round which I did and it did help but I've about warn my thumbs out just getting the gun loosened up a bit. I think Beretta guns are top quality but this is a little unacceptable, I don't think a person should have to waste 2-3 hundred rounds before the gun is operable! I'm not new with rifles and handguns I've hunted sense I was 12 years old, 80 now, probably spent more time hunting and fishing than most people. I still have not shot the pistol yet because of the cold nasty weather here but am hoping that things will be better with this handgun.
