Bersa Thunder

Low recoil, accurate, nice grip, great concealment
I bought this gun about a month ago, an I've put more than 600 rounds through it, hasn't jammed nor have I had any problems with it while shooting. It has low recoil, and is pretty accurate, I've read onli...ne that it apparently shoots low, but i haven't had that problem at all. Awesome gun perfect for concealment, feels great in your hand, light trigger pull when the hammer is cocked. Comes with 1 clip(8 bullet capacity) and a storage box(at least at the academy i purchased from. The only "problem" I've had is when I disassemble the gun. I couldn't put it back together. It felt like I was forcing it, it wasn't locking back into place. It wasn't til I put the clip back into the gun that everything smoothly clicked back into place. Which was very odd, but I thought id share since I read online that a couple of other people had problems reassembling, an putting the clip in then reassembling works every time for me. more

Good piece.
Weapon works fine if you know what you are doing..

Great concealed carry
I bought my wife a Bersa Thunder on a recommendation and the great reviews this gun gets. I liked hers so much I went and bought me one. The Bersa Thunder is well made and has some wieght to help with recoil and accuracy... from a small hand gun. They are very accurate and with the right ammo, perfect for CCW. I highly recommend the Bersa Thunder as a carry gun when you need something smaller. more

Perfect CCW
My son bought this for me for Christmas a year ago. This weapon has replaced several other weapons as my conceal carry. The greatest feature is when the safety is on, the trigger is released and will not fire. Flip the s...afety and it's ready to go, double action. Very accurate (my family shoots a lot), dependable and will perform flawlessly on the cheaper ammo from Russia. more

Great pistol!
Purchased the Bersa Thunder 380 along with a Smith & Wesson SD9 about 6 months ago. Both pistols are great and I have enjoyed them immensely. These were the first handguns I have ever purchased. I had a few fte but m...ore related to me and the ammo used. Easy to clean and put back together. Academy's price was also great. Really like this gun and would be even better if two magazines were included like the SD9. Well made and completely satisfied with my purchase. more

solid piece of machinery
Purchased this little gem about 2 month back for something a little smaller to conceal. From the very first shot I was able to stack 2 inch groups at 20 feet. I have put 750 rounds down range and never had a jam or malfu...nction. This Bersa .380 also has a very good feel/handle to it. I would definitely recommend this gun. Excellent fire arm and very accurate. more

Sweet shooter
I have had my thunder 380 about 9 months great gun, very accurate and reliable. Only problem out of 500+ rounds was 3 stove pipes from 1 box of blazer brass. Ever thing else runs fine.

Has metal frame very accurate
I bought this bersa 380 two tone pistol about 3 years ago. It's the first center fire I've owned but I have tried several other pistols from, 380 to 45 cal. This bersa is all metal frame it is very accurate and... really fun to shoot it has about 4 1/2 lb trigger pull its in the same place every time you pull the trigger. I've had better luck with winchester and target rounds. Any of the higher priced rounds do better. I think for the money it is the best concealed 380 out there. more

great little gun
I have seen some complaints about this gun but I have had no problems at all with it.

Nice pistol.
Got the duo-tone for Christmas to use as my conceal carry gun. Have put 50 rounds through it so far and love it. Replaced the plastic grip with the wrap around rubber grip and it nestles quite nicely in my hand. Only gon...e out to 10 yards so far and am dead on. Very eager to get back to the range and move out to 25 yards. Can't beat the price. more

Great little gun.
I live in Miami. Shorts and T's all year long. This gun slips into my pocket with a DeSantis pocket holster. It's the gun a generally take with me. At the range? Never a problem. Need a should include a second ...mag though, and finish could be better however the price can't be near. Bought a mag at Academy which works just great. more

Excellent pistol for everyday CC
I purchased one of these pistols a few months ago for my everyday CCW. This gun fits my hands quite nicely (I have issues with holding most gun grips). The pistol feels very solid in my hands and from what I have used th...e pistol, it is very accurate and reliable. Very little kickback and the sights are great. I especially like the safety on this pistol. I very highly recommend this pistol for concealed carry! more

You will not go wrong with this little beauty
Bought this gun for my wife for personal protection, fantastically accurate straight out of the box. Easy to use heavy enough to make the recoil negligent. Price makes this a must have addition. I will be getting a secon...d for myself and making it my every day concealed carry more

best product ever
I glad I bought this gun, It is my regular carry gun for self defense

I bought this gun 3 weeks ago, love the feel, couldn't wait to shoot, first time out of the box 2inch bullseye at 45 feet, I am not that good, but the gun didn't know that. Looking to buy another for the wife!

In my opinion a safe and efficent handgun.
Not crazy about the black sights but I can live with them.

Easy to operate slide, high accuracy
This was the first gun that I bought, and I had specified to the gun shop owner that had to have good stopping power. I was sold. My wife had bought a different brand of pistol, but she didn't have the hand strength... for the slide. She knew that she could operate my Bersa. After buying one for her, we went to a gun range. The man on the target did not have a good day. Her accuracy was better than any other gun that she had had. more

BERSA THUNDER is an EXCELLENT weapon!!!
I have a Bersa Thunder with the "ceracoat" finish. I have found it to be a "top shelf" precision weapon. I would put it up against ANY weapon in it's class of .380 handguns. It has performed flaw...lessly with the right ammunition. HOWEVER...I would recommend only top grade type ammo from Fiocchi, Federal, or Remington for use with this weapon because the firing mechanism is tight and just like ANY other weapon made, will jam with cheaper ammo that doesn't "ramp" cleanly. more

Great Gun
I purchased this gun a couple of weeks ago and have not been disappointed yet. I have put 200 rounds through it, without a single jam. The grip feels great and it is a joy to fire. I love the safety features and and whit...e dot sites. I am new to shooting and spoke with a gun expert regarding the Bersa vs. the Walter PPK. He advised it is a almost a exact copy but just less cost. The only down side is that the Bersa has a large trigger guard and can be difficult to find a holster that will fit. Overall a great value for a great gun!!!! more

I finally saw it at Academy, and instea...d of purchasing myself, I recommended to a family member. Their family feels much safer with a safe and quality featureful pistol.

Great reliable carry weapon
Bought this gun three months ago. Had a few FTEs however the more I shoot this Bersa the better it gets to where I can't remember the last time I an FTE. Very accurate and pleasant to shot. This is my 2nd Bersa. The... first Bersa 22 Firestorm saved both my wife and my life as we were attacked by 2 pitbulls and a rotweiler at our country home. Killed the 1st pitbull which backed the other two off. Bersa makes fine reliable guns of which I can personally attest to. more

Not cheap, economical.
Just recently sold my Firestorm (Bersa) 380 after about 10 years of ownership. No problem with the pistol, just developed lack of confidence in the capabilities of the .380 cartridge. To the best of my recollection, this... is the only pistol I have (well, up until I got the M&P Shield) that had zero, yes zero, failures to feed, fire or eject. Not picky on ammo and I thought it was a very comfortable shooter. I can only assume the posters giving this pistol one star don't really know what they are doing and may have used cheap ammo, limp-wristed while firing, etc. I would absolutely recommend this pistol and, actually, am going to save a little money and re-acquire a Bersa .380 in the concealed carry model. Safe shooting! more

This pistol fits my hand well. I'm a female and most guns have grips that are just too big. The price is great for a reliable and dependable pistol.

Quality and Value
I purchased the Bersa Thunder .380 about a month ago, and to date have put through about 350 rounds. Initially, it would not feed flat-nose or hollow-point. After breaking it in with about 220 rounds of round-nose Reming...ton and Federal, it now feeds everything without issue--including hollow-points. The gun is extremely comfortable to shoot, the trigger is very smooth, and it's easy to break down and clean. The slide is also easy to rack, which my wife likes. Bersa paid attention to the little details on this gun: groves on the front strap, back strap, and trigger guard; no-glare checkering on the top of the slide which creates a nice "runway" between the front and rear sights; there is an appropriately-placed thumb rest; and the decocker has a positive feel. Besides all that, it is accurate. If you do your part, close groupings are quite attainable. Prior to this purchase, I had always purchased American-made guns. After a lot of research, I decided to take the plunge and I am very pleased with it. The Thunder .380 is a very solid, capable gun. more

Liked This Gun so Bought a Bersa Thunder 380 Plus
My son and I bought one of these approximately 3 years ago. We have had no problems and highly recommend this gun. We use Pro Mag mags with no problems. The only Bersa mags we have are the ones that came with them. Excel...lent CCW Gun. Loved this gun so well I recently bought the Bersa Thunder 380 Plus (15 round mags). It is also an excellent gun/CCW Gun. more

Accurate little pistol!
I've had this gun for almost a month and have put about 300 rounds (of various brands of ammo) through it so far. Had a bit of trouble with it jamming in the beginning, until I realized that my extra mags had a ton ...of grease and needed a good cleaning. Since then, it works like a dream. The fixed barrel makes it very accurate. It fits my hand perfectly (I am a woman). I love this pistol. more

Great weapon for the Price !!!
I had a Browning 380 and like a dummy went and sold it. But when I went to the gun store to see what 380 was available the sales person steered me to the Bersa. Bought it cause it reminded me of my Browning 380. Accurate... weapon, light to carry and easy to conceal . Nope I ain't getting rid of this 380, recommend you buy one if you want an old school type 380 that has a visible hammer and shoots single or double action. more

Very accurate and reliable.
I bought mine at Academy about 9 years ago. I have sent a lot of rounds down range with it. I have qualified twice for my concealed carry with it. 500 50X and 500 49X.

First pistol
This is the first pistol purchased. Have had it 3-4 yrs. now. If you limp wrist it, it will jam or stove pipe, if you do not seat the magazine firmly, you will have failure to fire. Pistols require you use pad of index f...inger to pull the trigger for an accurate shot. Clean & Lubicate before shooting. Most complaints are due to shooter error. I know because I made most of them myself. Bersa .380 is what I used for Tx Concealed Handgun License range, passed with flying colors. Recommend Trouble Shooting Mastering your Pistol Marksmanship by Gabby Franco, before you blame the gun or if you just want to be a better shot more

Awesome .380
This is one .380 that is hard to beat. It is very accurate for the barrel length. It is light, compact, and feels great in your hand. The grip just fits my hand perfect with the finger grip on the magazine. I also bought... 2 extra ProMag clips for it and they functioned flawlessly. This is the best all around .380 acp I've held since the Browning BDA .380 ceased production. more

Amazing gun!
I purchased this gun for my fiancee for a cancelled carry weapon. it is a great size for her and even for me has a very minimal recoil which she loved.she put 50 rounds through it and was excited and smiling the entire t...ime. it has a great double action-single action trigger. i actually want to go buy one for myself now. amazing gun for the price i highly recommend it.  more

Great gun
I bought mine about 2 years ago and instantly it became my favorite carry gun. I can't count the number of rounds I have put through it but I have only had 1 malfunction and I believe that was due to a burr on the h...ollow point jacket. The round hung up nose down in the mag when I dropped the mag the round had a sizeable burr, but these were cheap reloads that I bought at a gun show. It is probably the most accurate handgun I own. I can consistantly put all 7 rounds in a playing card at 10 yards in semi rapid fire. I have large hands and the gun "just feels right" while my wife with really small hands says the same thing. I bought a ProMag mag for it even though the reviews I read were not very good. So far with a couple of hundred rounds through it, it has been reliable. I do have to push the mag release button, however, to seat the ProMag more

Bersa is a blast
I've put 100 rounds of Tulo .380 in my new Bersa and can easily say it's worth every cent I paid for it. Pleasure to fire and quite accurate. For a 17 oz pistol, recoil is not bad. It feels right in your hand. ...No stove-piping, no excess fouling. And perfect for C&C. more

Quite a "Bang" for the buck
First of all... regardless of the description on this site, this is not a double action gun only. Only the first round is. All the rest are single action. If you cock the gun first with one round in the chamber, it is to...tally single action and the trigger pull on single action is no less than beautiful. Do not expect to hit your target on the first round if you leave it in double action mode. I've shot about a thousand rounds through this gun using different manufacturers' ammo.... only one kind of ammo jammed once in a while, and that was Walmart's PPU FMJ. Everything else went through without a hitch .. even cheaper and reloaded ammo. It is not the smallest 380 and it is not the largest 380; but it conceals well ... and with a little practice, you can hit any target all the time at 10 yards. If you cannot, it is not the guns fault ... it's your fault. The recoil is much more manageable than just about any other gun in its class It feels good in your hand or hands( the trigger guard has a rest for your other hand and the magazine has a rest for your pinky.). It is very accurate, very reliable, and has the finish of much more expensive guns. It is also probably the safest of semi's on the market.... with the magazine out, it will not fire no matter what you do. (You can override that if you wish.) It also has a combination safety and de-cocker, and the double action trigger pull on the first shot is very hard. If you should discharge this gun inadvertently, you should not be owning any semi-automatic. Highly recommended if you want a 380 more

Excellent CCW
Purchased this weapon about a year ago and have run over 1000 rounds through it. The only problem I encountered was some stovepiping with a box of hollow points I bought cheap - probably junk ammo - not a single problem ...since. I have large hands and this one fits in nice with no fingers hanging off the grip mainly due to the extension that is attached to the magazine. Purchased a ProMag for my 2nd mag and have had no problems with it either. This is an awesome CCW pistol and works well with an "in waist band" holster with little to no bulge. 7+1 - How much more do ya need? Highly Recommend!! more

Bought this pistol about a year ago. Finally put it to the range test. Man o" Man what a FINE weapon this is! Bulls eyes consistently after a minor rear sight adjustment. I shot at 10 yards all kinds of ammo. The Be...rsa didn't care what I fed it. Let it be known, I bought one of the after market clips (Pro Mag) and it is definitely JUNK! Found a factory BERSA clip and no jams or stove pipes. Bersa should include a second clip in the box but they don't. If you decide to buy a Bersa you won't go wrong!

This little guy is a bargain!
I had the two tone model, not all black.......same thing right? This use to be my everyday carry, about 5 years ago. I switched to .40, then 9mm; But the Bersa still has a place in my heart. Ended up giving it to my dad ...because he wanted a gun that had good point and shoot ergonomics and a bullet that was easy to control. So What did I like about this pistol? - Low price - Extremely reliable - Super accurate - Small and Lightweight - Easy to clean I had a Sig P232 stainless, about 7 years ago, that can be compared to this gun. The Sig has a great reputation, super tight fit and finish, and much more sexy styling than this Bersa, or the Walther PPK. Unfortunately the Sig did not shoot as well as the Bersa......Go Figure. If you want an all metal .380 acp that's easy to shoot, accurate and reliable, then buy this gun. Simple. more

The Sig has a great reputation, super tight fit and finish, and much more sexy styling than this Bersa, or the Walther PPK. Unfortunately the Sig did not shoot as well as the Bersa......Go Figure. If you want an all metal .380 acp that's easy to shoot, accurate and reliable, then buy this gun. Simple. more

Great Gun!
I don't write many reviews, however, this little gun didn't get a fair shake here. I've shot many different pistols, and of course, there are better one's out there. In my opinion, this is the best .3...80 out there for the price! I've owned one for over 4 years, and I've NEVER had a problem with it. I've fired over 1,000 rounds through it, and I find it extremely reliable. If you don't believe me, do your own review research. You'll find that I'm not alone in my opinion. more

Looks and shoots like a Walther PPK
Bought one two years ago to teach wife and daughter how to shoot and as possible concealed carry. Love the double/single action, smooth trigger pull and little kick. For the money you can't beat it, very accurate on...ce you break it in. Don't limp wrist it, or it will stove pipe or jam, but with a firm hand, it is trouble free, dead on reliable with almost any ammo. I also bought a Bersa Pro Thunder 9mm which is everyone's absolute favorite range gun. Like the 380 it has silky smooth DA/SA trigger and very little flip/kick. Can you believe you can buy such a high quality piece for so little $$? more
