Bought myself a brand new Bersa Thunder 380 "Concealed Carry" model.
Thought I'd post a few pics to show you the size in relation to the Kel-Tec P-3AT (with the +1 round mag extension).
"Slide by Slide"
Ruler used to make sure the longest part of each firearm lined up.
"Does my butt look fat?"
Grip length comparison
Kel-Tec on it's rug (note it just fits with the +1 Mag extension)
Bersa on the Kel-Tec Rug
I think this gives the most accurate impression of the true size difference, about 1/2 inch in either direction.
Kel-Tec sitting on the Bersa
And just for kicks, the Bersa sitting on a CZ-82
What I've noticed is that these photos make the Bersa look positively HUGE (especially in comparison to the Kel-Tec). Seriously it's not THAT much bigger though it is about twice as heavy.
Initial impression of the Bersa is that it feels extremely solid and well manufactured. With the fixed barrel I expect accuracy to be good.
PRO-
It also fits my hand very well.
Disassembly is extremely simple (parallel to the CZ-82)
CON-
The safety lever just about requires a pair of pliers to move, it is STIFF! Hopefully that will break in with time/use.
(EDIT: I really only expect to use the "safety" as a decocker, I'm a lefty)
It has a Magazine disconnect (I hate those things)
I'm looking forward to the first range session with this pistol and then I'll post back with more info on trigger, accuracy, reliability and so forth.
