The 21A was available in .22LR or .25ACP.
Did a quick search, and it seems it's able to be converted....

It is a model 21A .22LR

I got the .22LR .25 ACP off the box that came with it.

Heirlooms are great. Nice Beretta!

All you need in PA is a clean record to purchase firearms. My PA carry permit says "Pennsylvania License To Carry Firearms". None are listed on the permit or on records.

Nice Beretta

I would like to ask, given the events of late ( Texas church shooting, Las Vegas ) has anyone that did not carry, now start to carry either open or concealed? I carried concealed for years until my kids were born. I then decided to lock up the guns. Now that my youngest is 20 and well trained in the use of firearms I have decided to start carrying again. I have an FFL and the number of transfers and gun sales have gone way up. I do not stock firearms but we do order them for customers. The number of AR receivers sold has gone through the roof.

Just imagine if just one person in church had a pistol. Could have been a lot less people dead. Yet, people continue to support and vote for gun grabbing, politician dirt balls like Hillary. She was also accused of causing quite a stir with her whiz-bang comment on the Vegas shooting, quoting along the lines of : "Imagine the death toll if the shooter had a faster gun" ,... . Now, who the h3ll in America is going to say something like that? Can't blame the church shooting on us! I have a deep anger with those gun grabbers. There was a kid who walked into school and just shot up the students. Gun grabbers say he has a right to live out the rest of his days in a tax payer supported prison. And with all the countries in the world that continue to make bombs, and the alike, there is no way I'm giving up gun!

I don't carry, would not say if I did or did not. I, too know some fine fire arms but I don't feel I need to have guns like Ar's. Though I support the 2nd Amendment fully! My gun is special to me. Perhaps I should share a picture of it. Its not expensive, but for home protection, should be fine for the protection. I have shot 3 coon, and a possum with it in my hen house so far. The critters have kind of got the idea they are not welcome around here as I have not had to shoot my gun in over a year! I hate cleaning them any way!

When I was in high school, we were asked to read the book : Anne Frank. We then were asked to give a report about it, and if there was any item from WW2 we could bring into class that went along with the book. I got permission from my school to bring in a Japanese Arisaka type 2. The Dean Of Students kept my gun in his office, I kept a few live rounds in my locker until it was time for me to give my report. All was on video. Got an A on the report!

But, how have times changed! Just because someone's live sucks don't make it a right to shoot innocent people! Its time for stricter punishment for serious gun violations.

John when I was in junior high I shot trap competitively. I did a speech on the difference b/w trap and skeet. I walked down the hall with a 12ga on each shoulder no issue or concern. Imagine that being done today. Long story but one night 2am on my way back to college on rte 80 in the middle of nowhere my Ruger mark 4 keep 3 thugs with very bad intentions from doing me and my future wife harm.

Its one of my main passions (along with Ham Radio and Cars) . I carry most times I'm out and about.

I love to shoot and collect guns!

I do have a fondness for S&W revolvers and 80% receivers though.

Thank God in NC all you need to have to buy a rifle is cash. A pistol requires a "pistol permit" (a $5 tax originally to prevent blacks from obtaining guns during the Jim Crow days) or a Concealed Carry permit. Oh, and as much as no gun laws make sense, concealed carry requires a permit but open carry is unregulated , just as the 2nd intended it to be.

RKBA!

Anybody else into Cowboy Action Shooting? (sassnet.com)

Found this game a couple years ago, have been having a lot of fun dressing up like a cowboy (though my outfits are very simple) and shooting steel for an afternoon.
