I’m looking at the inox model on Gunbroker and they are about $450.  I am seeking feedback from people who own one.  Would you buy again?

Had one years ago.  Reliable and accurate enough.  Sold it off to an older Uncle who needed a pocket carry gun. It was ok for what it was. Although I do recall issues with frame cracking somewhere along the way.

Frankly, I'd rather carry a 9mm of some sort than .380.  But metal framed handguns are slowly dying away and Inox guns are always kinda cool.

I had one when they first came out and it was ok but I hated the single side safety. I think I paid $300 but it wasn’t Inox. For the size and caliber there are much better options now.

I have one from the 90's, and like it.  I shoot it well, and have no trouble hitting 6" plates with it at 15 yards.

If the one for $450 is both Inox and has the threaded barrel, that's a good price for that model.  I'd get a threaded one if you have a suppressor, as I'm sure they are super fun to shoot with that, as the .32 ACP would be very quiet.

I had an early one, the trigger and trigger pull left something to be desired. I liked the tip up barrel aspect but being the trigger was as small as it was, made it difficult to fire in double action mode. You might check ammo. prices and availability first.

I have one and have been happy with it. If I were to lose it somehow I’d want to replace it with one of the new threaded versions.

Picked up a used one for $300 a while back.  Decent little pistol.  Not sure I'd drop $450 on one.

The Tomcat line has recently been discontinued by Beretta.

Do you have a source for that?  Their website still shows 6 Tomcat models and 7 Bobcat models, and they seem to be selling quite well.

I have a Tomcat in their FDE threaded barrel version.  The longer threaded barrel adds .4” and every bit helps with .32 ACP.

Mine gets carried in an ankle holster when I fly as flight suits are not amenable to any other form of concealed carry.

I've got one just because I'm becoming a Beretta fan. It was much improved by putting (slimmer) stock black plastic grips on it and that toned down the sensation of holding a metal Club Sandwich in your hand.

It's good ole Beretta reliability/quality and accuracy is meh which is expected from a .32 with a short barrel. I gave mine to my son in law since he had more use then I could ever find for it. For a "this is neat" gun to show your friends it good to have, but other then that I would not buy another one.

No, had one in the 90’s was around $360?  Shot it once and sold it.

I just got the threaded .22 and wouldnt pay anymore money for it than i did with the rebate—around $300 ish

yes i would, great little gun, had this one for a few years now, but ive still got the 22's a 25cal, but this 3032 fits in my pants front pocket, shorts, whatever, right now ive only got the use of 1 arm, broke my left shoulder on labor day, and im left handed so im kinda screwed both ways, but those little tip up's are better then nothing

Had an Inox one back in the early 2000's. Definitely wouldn't spend $450 on one.

They are no longer made, per Beretta.  That's why they have been offering all of the rebates to clear out stock.

I would buy again. I have the INOX model and it's a neat little gun. Great for pocket carry.

I own 2 of them and won't sell them. I have had one of them for years and picked one up from PSA with the rebate(excellent deal) not to long ago, PSA still has them for 399 right now.

The 3032’s are fun, and variety is the spice of life. I’ve owned an inox 3032 for several years. I just ordered another one in “kale slushy” green color. My wife’s nickname for the inox one is “chonky” because they’re chunky little things.

PSA had them for 399 not long ago. I was thinking of buying another one.
