I have seen a couple of them. Neither was for sale. If you find one, the price is not going to be low.

I've got one that's my car gun (legal in my state). Very worthwhile small gun with the right ammo. Plenty of people use them for for concealed carry in a pocket holster. I also have a .22 model 21A Beretta Bobcat. Unlikely as it may seem, the accuracy and reliability (and concealability) make it the preferred terminator pistol of the Israeli Mossad. Of course, they're better shots than I am.

I have a Beretta 950 in .22 short :)

This is a pre 1968 handgun and its not a bad shooter, really! A fun range toy when you can find .22 short ammo.
I did once shoot a rabbit with it and the creature somersaulted quite theatrically before it expired on the spot.
It would be a great handgun to carry, if I was sure that I was going to be assaulted by a rabbit.
However the cartridge lacks power and if using it for self defense; it might make the perp. angry when he finally figures out that I shot him.

I have shot a Bobcat in .22 LR and that was fun too.
In .32 ACP, it might not be too bad of a carry gun even though a longer barrel would be nice to maximize the round's performance.
They are reasonably well made, have a very simple manual of arms and seem reliable.

Hi Zama,

Beretta Tomcat .32 pistol I think is available with Simson Gun House, Mangalore, Karnataka. (http://cms.simsongunhouse.com/). However, prices will be insanely high (30-40 Lacs atleast) for a new Tomcat. You can even get a Glock (.40 Calibre) for around 65 L. The website has the contact details. Check with them if you are interested. I am assuming you already hold a valid Indian Arms License for Pistol/revolver.
