im glad to say over this weekend i got to shoot my new bobcat i was a little reluctant to because of all the bad reviews i got online. The reason i say im glad is because it was flawless i shot over 200 rounds in a row without cleaning or any malfunctions this little pistol was hitting every head shot i aimed at 25 yds and only 4.9in in total length. i dont know if i just got a good one or if the advice i got about breaking it in before shooting it did the gun some justice. I was told to clean the hell out of it fresh out of the box over oil it and rack the slide 1000 times im not sure how many times i racked it but it was a couple nights in a row for maybe a half hour at a time while i watched tv. No mag in it of course!!! I am pleased with this little pocket pistol and hope that if anyone is having trouble with it tries this little method and keeps it clean hopefully it will help!!! Let me know some results....

I had a brand new one years ago. I probably only put about 500 rounds through it and it had a constant FTE problem. I always thought it was a strange design to have no extractor. I traded it in towards a Para ordnance a few years ago, which I subsequently traded away as well because it was also unreliable. I now wish I had kept the 21A and broke it in. I'll be searching for another one at the Marlboro gunshow. Neat little guns, cool recoil spring design.
