[QUOTE="Junior Bonner, post: 2778845, member: 33416"] Picked up the Bersa Thunder .380 Plus today. Will put 50 through it in the morning. I had ordered .380 in bulk before I ordered the Bersa, but it hasn't gotten here yet. So I bought a box of 50 off the shelf out of necessity. My impression of the Bersa was how close in size it is to the Makarov, and the grip notwithstanding, it is smaller. A pocket .380 with 15+1. I have had trepidation from the get go about buying another South American, but I couldn't resist having a Makarov size pistol that carried 15+1. What I don't like about the Bersa right off the bat is the finish, but that's not make or break because if it's a shooter it is going to be Cerakoted. I have been guilty of running .380s through my 9x18 Maks - lots of'em. But have never had a pistol dedicated to the .380 caliber. I hope for the best in the morning, and hope that it can compete in accuracy with the Makarov. Will be shooting from the standing - distance to target will be 75 feet. [img]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/i.imgur.com_1CK7gCe.jpg[/img] Now, the slide of the Makarov is beefier, but inside it is scored with rough machine marks, whereas the Bersa appears smooth, without these rough imperfections. [img]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/i.imgur.com_16Kt5U9.jpg[/img] The high capacity Bersa's strengths and weaknesses will be revealed here, late tomorrow morning. I only have 50 rounds to put through it though - unless UPS gets out here in the nitch of time with the bulk ammo. [/QUOTE]
