      Tell me about the Bersa Thunder 380?

      I have been trying to look for a back up gun for my carry Glock 19. But have had no luck so far. Then I came across one of these. I wanna know, are bersa's decently made guns? Also can they shoot hollow point ammo out of the box? Pretty much wanna know how good of a carry pistol it would be. I...

      Bersa Thunder 380 problems (!!&*$$%%#!!)

      A while back I purchased a Bersa Thunder 380 duotone used for $200 at a shop; supposedly with less than 50 rounds through it. Bore looked good, I'd read good things about them as reliable inexpensive concealable pieces and it seemed like a reasonable deal. It was actually issued as an officer...

      Firestorm (Bersa?) .380 issues...

      Anyone here have any idea of some "orange" part inside a Bersa/Firestorm .380? I bought a used one off of here from a fellow INGOer last weekend to replace my grandfathers' old gun. He's a Korean war veteran, and seems to know some, not much about firearms, and he went to show it to a friend and...

      Bersa 380cc ammo

      Hey guys I just got a new CC gun this weekend, I got the Bersa 380cc and took it out to the range and up a few rounds threw it and had some issues with it feeding Gold-dot ammo (3 out of 12rounds). When i looked at the miss-feeds the nose of the rounds were deformed from the miss-feed. I don't...

      PPK or Bersa

      I want to buy a decent carry gun. I'm thinking of either a Walther PPK or a Bersa Thunder 380. Anyone care to chime in on thoughts about these two similar pieces. Thanks

      Bersa trivia

      I did not know this. At the end of the 1990s, Bersa won the contract for supplying a new standard sidearm for the Argentina Armed Forces and Argentina Federal Police that were looking to replace their aging Browning Hi-Power pistols. The Bersa Thunder 9, an evolution of the Model 90, was...

      Bersa Thunder 9?

      A couple of weeks back, I bought a Bersa Thunder 380 and have been very happy with it. I've put over 200 rounds through it and it works great without a single failure of any type. Now I'm thinking I need a 9mm in the collection to go along with the .45 1911, Bersa 380 and some .22 pistols...

      Bersa Thunder 380

      I picked up a Bersa Thunder 380 yesterday and after about 100 rounds at the range, am pretty happy with it. I got this one to use for concealed carry during times where my 1911 feels a bit large for what I'm wearing. Are these decent weapons to carry? I don't see much written on them. Is...

      Bersa, the best...

      I own many pistols and have carried Glocks, 1911s, etc.. I have to say that I really respect the Bersa product. My daily carry tends to be either a Bersa Thunder 9 High Capacity or a Bersa 380 CC if the need arises for more concealment. Both are very pleasant to shoot and carry. Don't...

      Buying a Bersa 380 for my Daughter (Buyer Beware)

      I am looking to buy the most affordable small handgun for my daughter. She really likes the Bersa 380 and I have not read enough bad reviews to avoid the purchase. Like any handgun I purchase, I first look into the used market to find a deal... This is where the wheels fall off the train on...

      Bersa .380 slide release IWB issue

      I am carrying my Bersa more often now that I have found an IWB holster that I like but the huge slide release is really hurting me, even through the thick leather of the holster. I have tried moving the rig from 3 O'clock to get it off of my hip but that damn slide release is still iritating...

      Bucket-O-Bersa

      Just before my daughter was born, I got this Bersa Thunder .380 as a basket case. Well, 17 months later, I finally finished it. I call it my 'poor man's PPK'! It started out as a pre-lock model in the nickel finish. The finish was poor at best, so I had it DuraCoated in stainless steel by...

      Bersa .380 info

      I'm thinking about a Bersa for CC as an inexpensive alternative to the PPK. Does anyone have any experience with Bersa? Any other recommendations for anything similar for CC? Thanks,
