My First Bersa WOW!

[Cowboybootnut]

I bought a new Bersa Thunder 9 Ultra Compact last week and took it to the range today.

For many years, I had always thought of a Bersa as a second-third rate gun, boy was I ever wrong. A few months ago, I fired the same model that a buddy had, and was impressed, thought it might make a good CCW gun. So I bought one.

I fired a box of factory FMJ and Winchester 115 gr JHP (white box), No failure, and a tight group and 15 yards. It has a great balance to it, handled the recoil well, and good sights.

I will fire more when I get my 13 rd mags, which is a draw back for this weapon, it is hard to get extra mags. Plus, I would like to get some different grips, instead of the rough plastic factory grips. But that can wait.

Welcome to the Bersa owners club , my wife chose the Bersa over the Sig P230 and Walther PPK for her CCW . Bersa has been underrated for a long time now .

Yep, it is under-rated. I am always amazed at how good of a gun mine is.

If I was in the market for a good .380 I'd choose the bersa hands down. A good friend has one and it shoots better than his walthers. And it's more relaible.
