The Beretta Tomcat 3032 Pocket Rocket

[@bryanmise5105]

I’ve been shooting mine. With a typical grip, and one handed shoots pretty well.. I don’t have high expectations with a one hand grip , but they all hit in a 6in circle at 7-10 yards. I guess a personal self defense range. So I think that’s acceptable. No issues with mine. But I use 71g at 905 fps ammo. I believe that’s 129 ft lbs. anyway thanks for your video enjoyed it.

Just to add. I received the Beretta 150.00 dollar rebate and the weapon was on sale at the time so I paid 299.99 for it. I couldn’t pass that up.

[@Polecat101]

good deal

[@michaelsweaney3890]

Word! I took advantage of the rebate as well. Ended up $249.99 can't pass it up.

The kel tec p32 is a good pistol to

I love the nemesis pocket holster for my LCP. They’re super cheap too!

[@kevinmcgovern5110]

Ammo suggestion: MagTech makes .32ACP 73 gr. UN-jacketed ball, which is said to dump energy without possible over penetration as can happen with FMJ. Having shot a box at the range, my Tomcat Covert had no problems and doesn’t seem to have fouling issues after 50 rounds.

Thanks for the review. I beg to differ on the recommendation for carry ammo. The Underwood 55 grain +P Lehigh defender loading is the best as far as I can see. It's the best of both worlds of hollow points and full metal jacket. You get disruption like a hollow point and penetration like a full metal jacket. For me, this is a deep concealment when for whatever reason I'm not comfortable carrying my G23 strong side.

I love mine!!! So fun to shoot and tiny.

[@sycamorebacker1]

I almost always carry solid points in all of my pistols of different calibers.

[@frantzcelestin9322]

same here too.

[@achillesiq491]

Cool. Looks like an up close and personal defense pistol. Would be interested in seeing you shoot it at best distance for accuracy.

[@MichaelBlueMusic]

All of the little Beretta tip-barrel guns are surprisingly accurate at range and easy to point-shoot at closer ranges, unless you have large hands.

[@qwiknf]

I have a 3032 that's 25 yo. I like the compactness, weight, barrel loading, and ease of field stripping. Never get comfortable with the trigger, to me, it is way too thin and feels like a dull knife blade after a few rounds.

[@cmvb69]

Great pistol

[@MichaelBlueMusic]

Dated info. Please research Lehigh/Underwood Xtreme Defender ammo for .32ACP. In the 3032 Tomcat it meets FBI standards and produces surprisingly good temporary and permanent wound channels. This is far superior to both JHP and FMJ performance in the same gun. 👍

I like the capacity

[@Polecat101]

you can get larger mag 😁

[@mattknower8073]

It is very easy to carry.

[@paratrooper7340]

I'd like very much to have one of these but the state of Massachusetts hasn't made them legal so I cannot have one!

[@user-tp9gy8kt2q]

...WOW... Paratrooper, is it because the thing is so dawgone scary lookin'..? Or, is it because the name is so vicious..?! Why all the hate..?!

[@michaelsweaney3890]

The 2nd ammendment says it's legal.

[@mattknower8073]

I think I’m first. Love my Tomcat.

[@Polecat101]

not cool trying to get rounds in mag . tried & tried but getting 7 in mag ? No info on any channel ... Oiled the spring , compressed it with wood , finally kniked up the spring so no info on how to take apart mag . Did it anyway . The problem was the spring was stretched too much , just push it in & will loosen up .

[@user-tp9gy8kt2q]

Looks like somebody got bit a little too hard by the Beretta Bug.. I hope you are able to recover.. Every time I try to carry something smaller, I end up both disappointed and a few hundred dollars poorer.. Please be the one to prove my suspicions wrong.. I haven't tried a 32acp yet, so I'm paying attention.. The smallest I have tried to carry was a 22mag revolver, and I stopped that nonsense over a decade ago..

[@Polecat101]

Got the Beretta 1951 & now have two.

[@user-tp9gy8kt2q]

Congratulations DC, you have my condolences. The 92FS is the only Beretta I have ever been happy with. I nearly bought one of these tip-up barrel design pocket pistols, back before I knew any better, when I was young - so glad I didn't, now. And I had wanted one for so long, too. I really wanted to watch one run perfectly, like it's supposed to.

[@Polecat101]

@@user-tp9gy8kt2q I'm not a big shooter so the 1951 is great for me . Looks good & is simple . Someone loves the 92FS , you can sure get parts /grips . I see Browning has a plant in Columbia SC now making the High Power , that's an oldie/goldie , they were pretty hard to find a few yearsago .

[@SCH292]

I bought my little 3032 last year. These are my experience, my views and my thoughts okay? 1. This pistol is not great or the best for rapid reload. It's hard to rack the slide. You might risk cutting your hand racking it either sling shot racking or over the top racking. If you got grip strength like the OP at 4:22 the rapid reload won't be a problem. So this gun is more of..."You better hope your 7+1 solve the problem asap". 2. Don't dry fire this gun too often because you will break the firing pin. I say don't even dry fire this thing. USE SNAP CAPS(dummy rounds) to "reduce" the chances of the pin breaking off. 3. Be-careful and stay aware of the "barrel spring" aka Part Number 4. There's a chance that Part Number 4 might snap and break off as you use the tilt up barrel. 4. This pistol isn't like your 1911, Glock, H&K VP70 or your M92FS when you can pop 200+ rounds at the range asap and still able to have fun even when the gun is hot. This gun is more of the..."You pop an box of 50 or 100 rounds and call it a day". 5. If you got big hands this gun isn't ideal for yourself defense. 6. This gun isn't even ideal for noobie or for the ladies or people with limited strength because this gun has a different of operation.

[@user-tp9gy8kt2q]

Well that's 5 out of your 6 reasons (for me) not to buy one, SCH. And I have a few more reasons of my own, but you covered it pretty well..
