Looking for a tiny suppressor host. And the 21a threaded looks pretty tiny.

Anyone care to share there experience with this pocket gun?

Will it run subs like cci standards?

Can will be an AAC HALCYON

This is strictly a range toy but I don’t want to clear malfunctions all the time

I’ve got a normal non threaded or ever plan on using it as a suppressor host 21A. It only runs with CCI mini mags and CCI stingers.

Mine runs great with CCI Stingers, doesn't like any of the bulk pack stuff.

Just picked this up last Tuesday.  Didn't clean it or oil it and took it to the range that night with Armscor 22 HV, CCI SV, Eley Subsonic HP, CCI Blazer and Eley Target.  Only had the factory mag and 2 Mec-gars.  Had a bunch of feed issues and jams the Armscor stuff was nasty, Blazer wasn't great, and the CCI SV and Eley Target were much better with the Eley Subs running the best.  

Took it home and cleaned it, lubed it up with some bearing grease and put a few more mags through with no problems.  Got 6 factory mags on Friday and made sure to clean them before using them.  Last night I put about 400 rounds of CCI SV and Eley Target through it and had 2 failures to feed.  It was a ladies league night that I run and they all shot it and those 2 jams were when they were shooting it and were touching the slide and slowing it down.  Gun ran very well after that.  I ran a brush in the chamber twice just to ensure extraction.  Finally I took the can off and ran a mag through with no suppressor and it shot just fine as well.

I love this stupid thing.  Soo dumb, but sooo fun!  Can is a Mack Brothers Tango K, which is the black friday "deal" from Silencer Central if you buy a can from them you get this for only the cost of the transfer tax.  100% titanium and monocore.  Not the quietest can on the market, but does the job.

I am a fan of the new factory threaded 21A.  Enough that I am going to get some thinner grips and a couple extra mags.

21A is the way to go.

The new factory threaded ones are nice!

What are you guys paying?

I picked up one recently and am having a hard time aiming through the can with the crappy sights it comes with. It does look cool as hell though.

Mine wouldn't go through a single magazine without a malf.  This went on and on for over a year.

Finally got the bright idea that it was due to an exessively strong spring.  Blocked the slide open, along with a cocked hammer, and kept it like that for a few weeks.

Has worked great ever since.

I opted for a new barrel instead of having my current  one threaded, because the current one has bad machine marks inside of the bore.

Looks like I traded an ugly bore for an ugly everything else.  Came complete with rust,  too.

As expected, reliability improved markedly.  Installation was no problem at all.  Definitely no need to ship the thing to them to have them install it; especially since there is a six week turnaround for such.

50rds of Aguila 40gr high velocity with only one malf; a failure to feed.  This is the best reliability this thing has ever exhibited.  Ejection seemed strong throughout all fifty rounds.  

Awful first round pop.  Subsequent shots were spooky quiet.

Odd how I never noticed it when I was shooting a rifle with this can...

I wish they put real sights on them it can't be that hard to do.

Just picked up an older version. Had quite a few FTF's.

Tried like hell to get the slide off but was not able to even after watching a few video's.

It will get the barrel threaded soon and a bowers bitty not so soon.

Just picked up a 21a covert.  Have not tried cci standard vel but ran a few mags of cci minimag with an AAC Pilot and no malfunctions.

I'm hoping that with its re-release from Beretta that CY will start making the laser grips again. My only issue is that with mybTacSol Axiom attached the sights are useless.
