I'm going crazy, guys!! I think I want the Firestorm, but is it really worth it over the Walther P-22 ?!?!?
Here are my options:
======================
#1) $396 for a Bersa Firestorm, which is used, yet it has a threaded barrel and adapter for a suppressor... coming from a dealer with the box.
#2) $375 for a Bersa Firestorm, which is brand new in box... coming from a dealer.
#3) $330 for a Bersa Firestorm, which has the box and only had one or two hundred rounds shot thru it... coming from a random individual. I might even have to pay an extra $20 to use my credit card thru PayPal. I'm sure my credit card company will reimburse me if the deal falls thru, but I'm not so sure about PayPal. I doubt this guy is a problem, but there's always that peace of mind thing I like.
#4) $320 for a Walther P-22, which is brand NIB... coming from my local dealer with a "lifetime warranty" from them, as well as Walther (S&W?).
#5) $360 for a Walther P-22, which is brand NIB... coming from the same local dealer with their own "lifetime warranty... yet this one comes with a threaded barrel and silencer adapter.
======================
What would you guys do if these were your only options... and why??
And could the extra quarter-inch for the silencer adapter actually improve accuracy?? Or affect my shooting in any other way than looks? I'd be able to take the adapter off with no problems too, I'm assuming?
And how much would it cost to get a threaded barrel and adapter for a Firestorm anyway?? Are they common, or would it have to be custom made?
Anybody know what Firestorm's warranty service is like? ... or wouldn't it be Bersa's warranty, rather?? Anybody think I'd need to use it as often as the Walther/S&W warranty (or my local pawn shop's warranty?)?
