A small pistol that that caught my eye at the gun show today somehow followed me home. That being the case, I figured I might as well clean it up and familiarize myself with it. It is the loved and hated Beretta model 21A Bobcat in 22LR. It was easy to follow the instructions for disassembly etc.
I noticed it did not have an extractor. There was no way I could see to manually eject a shell with the slide. You must flip up the barrel to remove an unfired cartridge from the chamber. Have I missed something? Am I seeing this correctly? I am guessing the blowback ejects the brass during operation?
I plan to put a box of CCI Stingers through it tomorrow and make sure it fires ok. If not then I will be making a trip back to the gun show to see the vendor who sold it to me.
