This Covert variant retains the 21 Series tip-up barrel system, allowing the chamber to be accessed without manipulating the slide. The simple blowback action is DA/SA with an exposed hammer, and the frame-mounted thumb safety includes a red witness dot for clear status indication.
The 2.9 in steel barrel is factory threaded 1/2x28 and fitted with a knurled thread protector. The design lacks an extractor and ejects upward/backward, and the open-top slide has rear cocking serrations only. Fixed, low-profile sights include a rear notch for a clean, snag-resistant profile.
Build and finish are purposefully straightforward: a black-anodized aluminum alloy frame, matte black slide, and checkered walnut grips with Beretta medallions. Despite its micro size, the pistol offers a practical 7+1 capacity, with approximate overall length of 4.9 in and weight around 11.8 oz.
Markings include the PB monogram and clear U.S. manufacture: MADE IN USA and BERETTA USA CORP. GALLATIN, TN. As a recent 2020s release, the Covert brings factory threading and updated details to the proven 21 Series format.
