Beretta 21A Bobcat Covert .22 LR, Threaded 2.8 in Tip-up Barrel, DA/SA, Walnut Grips, Matte Black, 7+1, Made in USA
The 21A Bobcat Covert pairs Beretta's micro tip-up design with a factory-threaded 2.8 in barrel for 1/2x28 TPI muzzle devices. This U.S.-made example features a matte black Bruniton slide, aluminum alloy frame, and checkered walnut grips, delivering a compact .22 LR package with practical features and collector-friendly details.
This Covert variant retains the Bobcat's fixed, tip-up barrel that allows loading the chamber without racking the slide. It uses a simple blowback system without a conventional extractor, and runs a DA/SA trigger with an external hammer, manual safety, and inertia firing pin.
The steel barrel is threaded 1/2x28 and protected by a knurled thread cap, giving the pistol ready compatibility with standard accessories. Fixed sights include an integral front blade on the barrel and a rear notch integral to the slide, with rear slide serrations for confident manipulation.
Construction is robust yet light, with a matte black anodized aluminum alloy frame and matte black Bruniton-finished slide. Checkered walnut grips with Beretta medallions add a classic touch and secure hold.
Dimensions are micro-friendly: 4.9 in overall length, 3.7 in height, and 1.1 in width, at approximately 11.8 oz. Capacity is 7+1 in .22 LR. Markings include the PB logo and Beretta USA Gallatin, TN rollmarks, and this pistol corresponds to Beretta part number J212125.

The Covert's threaded barrel is a factory feature, cut 1/2x28 TPI and finished with a knurled thread protector. This preserves the Bobcat's compact profile while adding modern flexibility. The tip-up, fixed-barrel layout remains a defining trait, enabling direct chamber loading and easy verification without slide retraction.
Controls and operation are straightforward: DA/SA trigger, external hammer, and a manual safety with an inertia firing pin. The slide carries rear serrations and an integral rear sight, paired with the barrel's integral front blade for a clean, snag-resistant sight picture.
Materials and finish are purpose-driven. The barrel is steel; the frame is aluminum alloy with a matte black anodized finish; the slide wears matte black Bruniton. Checkered walnut grips with Beretta medallions complete the aesthetic and feel.
U.S. manufacture is noted by the Gallatin, Tennessee markings alongside the PB logo and MADE IN USA stamps. With a micro footprint, 7+1 capacity, and approximately 11.8 oz weight, this 21A Bobcat Covert balances carry-friendly dimensions with distinctive Beretta features under part number J212125.
