Both my father and mother-in law have the Bersa Thunder .380. With my mother-in-law's pistol it does something strange. Starting from slide lock, if you "SLAM" a full magazine in the slide will release and chamber the top round. This will happen every time a full mag is slammed home, if you ease the mag in, the slide will stay locked.
We went down to La. a few months ago to help w/ the family and while down there we played with my father's NIB never fired Bersa. Same exact gun. It did the same exact thing. Over and over.
I have never seen or heard of this happening. Is it normal, a design flaw, or something bad all together. I am asking because my wife who can't hit crap with her snubby .38 has given it to me and is asking for one for Christmas based upon this as a good feature in her eyes.
Any and all input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks and Merry Christmas!!!
