      Comments about Bersa Thunder™ 380 Lite Duotone Handgun:

      I replaced a Walther PPK with this gun because the Walther had so many jam and misfire issues. I've run 100's of rounds through it, and have never had a firing problem, even with some really cheap ammo. I have had a couple of incidences where the shell casing hung up in the slide on ejection, but it has always been with really cheap ammo.

      My only complaint. The gun will not fire if the magazine is out. I suppose that is a nice safety feature to prevent a cleaning accident, but I would prefer it not be that way.

        Comments about Bersa Thunder™ 380 Lite Duotone Handgun:

        I bought my Bersa Thunder almost a year ago. It's been one of my favorite handguns. Light weight and compact, perfect for concealed carry. Actually a little big for a pocket but just right for tucking under your belt. The combo with the CrimsonTrace lazor sight is a sweet. I added my own CrimsonTrace since the combo wasn't offered back then. A perfect fit. The grips are identical to the original grips and there's no problem putting it in a standard holster. I bought my wife one for Christmas and she loves it too.

          Handles most ammo well. Extra Pro Mags did not feed all ammo as well as factory magazine.

            Comments about Bersa Thunder™ 380 Lite Duotone Handgun:

            This is my first handgun. My hubby did all the research ahead of time on several different models, and then I went into the store to "try them out" and see which one I liked best. Hands down, this was my favorite. The night I picked it up, we went to the range. It was only the 2nd time in my life I'd held a handgun, and my accuracy was tremendous! I attribute that to the gun's ease of use. I would recommend this for women looking at CCW.

            Comments about Bersa Thunder™ 380 Lite Duotone Handgun:

            I own two Bersa Thunders. One standard Dutone 8+1 and a Plus 15+1 double stack magazine. I also own a .22 LR Firestorm. These handguns are the best guns for the money.They are very well made and easily maintained. The trigger is smooth in double action. The recoil of a .380 is as such that second and third shots can be delivered very quickly and accurately. The gun can be carried in a pocket or a holster and can be drawn quickly and without snagging clothing.I do not own the Bersa with a laser and do not own a handgun with the feature. It is just another item you have to worry about or maintain for personal defense. I would recommend a Bersa firearm in any caliber they make and the distributor provideds very good service if you need spare parts or warrentee work.

                The only problem I have had is with the rear sight, the adjustment screw fell out, but it is being corrected by warranty, I don't use the sights much anyway since I have the Crimson Trace laser grips which are great.
