380

never thought id like this caliber, corbon ammo bersa thunder, you know you have to aim about 5 feet above at 50 yards haha. I like it one nasty round,ill stick to 380 for carry, its light, versatile . hardly any kick. I sure as heck would not want to be in front of one

Right now I'm trying to find a Bulgarian Makarov at a reasonable price, but if that fails I'm going with the Bersa Thunder 380 as well. It's a great little gun.
I'm gonna try to find a used one, though. I'm not a big fan of the intregal locks that are on alot of new guns, including new Bersas.

I loved my Makarov. Like a fool I sold it. Now I want to find another one. They served the Soviets, East Germans and Bulgarians very well for many years. And I like the 9x18 round.
But the Bersa's a fine pistol as well and it'll be my choice if Mission:Makarov fails.
The .380 is a great round, too.

I was looking at one of those, Red. Seems pretty nice but the DA pull is like 30 lbs. Also, since it is a Hungarian redesign of the Walther PPK, I don't know if parts and mags will be as available in the future as a Mak or a Thunder.

never thought I'd ever get tired of playing games
But I've been holding back for too long
Now the time has come to get it right
Now's the time to show them all that they're wrong

CHORUS
'Cos they said thunder and they said lightning
It would never strike twice
Oh but if that's true, why can't you tell me
How come this feels so nice, Oh it feels alright

Never ever did believe in guiding lights
'Cos what you didn't hold, slipped away
Oh but there's a feeling deep down in my shoe
'Cos things look like they're going my way
