Seems to be not much of a consensus on this and if you read the owners manual youd think beretta prefer you not even shoot the darn thing so I was curious. Is it safe to carry cocked and locked or should it be carried hammer down or quarter cocked?
I just know in other threads they talked about their being a free float firing pin and the safety being a hammer safety only. I just like the gun because at 10-15 yards I can get on targert with point shooting and shoot it fairly quickly and still hit a man size target. When using the sights I can do 3 inch groups all day. The mild 22lr in a 12 oz pocket pistol is so easy to shoot.Hmm Don't know about that, I have one that I bought for my wife but she nor I ever "carried: it. If I remember I'll get it out tonight and see what I can figure out. Think I would prefer something else to carry tho, I carry a Kimber 45
That is good to know. I found a thread on some other forum from like 5 years ago and many people said it wasnt safe to carry cocked and lockes which I did not get since Beretta gave you the option. Something about the safety being only a hammer drop safety only.The 21 can be carried cocked and locked but I find the safety to small for my to hit it every time. I do like my little 21a though I added crimson trace grips and now it's my go everywhere pistol.
Yeah just some other threads that were from less than reliable people from about 5-8 years (i cant remember actually) ago talking about how the safet was only a hammer block and how the firing pin could let one lose. Idk, their other posts from that time didnt instill a lot of confidence in me as they said some very cliche things that even I knew were just dumb. It wasnt an OSA thread and like I said some of their other posts were kind of silly.I had one awhile back, and wish I still did, it was a fun little gun. Mine was the INOX model; nice looking little Beretta, but I foolishly traded it off for something else...If I still had it, and was gonna carry it, I'd be like GOML and carry it safety off, and go DA for the first shot.
