This was the first handgun I have ever owned. I chose this gun after a lot of research reading and watching gun reviews. The gun is outstanding; 300 rounds through it with only about 3 FTE on first magazine; possibly secondary to limp wristing. It has been flawless ever since on PMC target ammo and Winchester white box target ammo. The gun is very accurate at 7 yrds and 15 yards. Very well built quality item. Easy to break down and clean. It is a pleasure to shoot at the range with very comfortable recoil. I love the gun so much that I just picked up BT.22 today for some cheaper target practice. I haven't been able to shoot it yet, but will review it later. The kit is a bargain with: case; 2 mags, holster, cleaning kit, wrap around rubberized grips with finger grooves (which makes for an excellent feel), extra walnut grips. I tried to put on the walnut grips, but one area on the grip on one side is not machined enough to fit over a metal stud on the frame and the handles do not fit it would be a good look. I haven't got my CC yet so I can't comment on how well it carries. I purchased both guns from Bud's and the process was seamless; excellent service; make sure you inspect gun before you take delivery. I will use Bud's again.

Purchased this as a Christmas present for my Father. It was his first semi-auto and he loves it. The gun runs great and is very accurate. Buds even got this to me the weekend before Christmas.

Excellent weapon. The price for this package is the best I have seen (on line or in stores). Buds beats them all with quality and service.

While Bud's waited until 9pm on the 7th day to ship my item, they did ship within their 3-7 business day window and it would have arrived next day if not for the holiday. The finish on the gun is very nice, the gun feels solid and well made and the wrap around grips are fantastic. I will be taking this out in the next few days to put a few hundred rounds through it and update the review, but anyone concerned about quality don't be. This looks and feels like a much more expensive firearm and has the features to boot with Bersa's lifetime warranty to back it all up. After a quick cleaning to clear the oil from packaging the gun shines. The extras in the kit make this well worth the price and I am extremely impressed. After some breaking in to wear the stiffness of everything away I expect no issues, I will be doing business again with Buds and with Bersa.

Buds did it again. They shipped me an excellent Bersa Thunder 380 ACP, the combat style. It came with 1-7 round and 1-9 round magazine. The gun is a good carry conceal weapon and it shoot flawlessly. I have already put about 200 rounds through it and have not had one issue, using Blazer Ammo. It came in a large case with wood grain grips, holster ( inside and outside waistband ) and a compact cleaning kit. I know the firearm is made in Argentina and most people want a firearm made in the USA, but for it's price and size with 2 magazines, it can't be beat. I did have a little trouble field stripping the firearm so I watch some a video on the internet exactly how to do it. I then followed their directions and it worked like a charm. After I got the feel of the weapon firing it, I was able to put several rounds in a silver dollar space at 15 feet. The accuracy of this weapon is very good there is little kickback to it in relation to my Glock 19. This is my favorite CC Weapon and is lighter than my Phoenix 25 which is made in California. The weight is 20 oz. and that is light for a CC Weapon with a 3.5" barrel.

Buds, top notch service as always. For the price, you can't beat the Bersa. The look and feel is one of quality, though I had a bit of a hangup with breakdown and cleaning, but that was primarily "operator difficulty" on my part. Once I got the hang of it, was easy. With my big hands, the 9 round magazine included did fit better as the 7 round magazine forced me to hold it a bit higher up the grip resulting in a bit of a pinch from the dovetail. 50 rounds, no problem, sights dead on. The only issue I had was with the 9 round magazine. Out of 3 mags full, 2 of them failed to load the very last round and jammed. No problems with the 7 round magazine at all. Could have been me, could have been the Winchester ammo...so I will still rate this a 5. The recoil is minimal, decocker is great, overall a great concealed carry weapon.

Great Gun. Easy to CC, easy to shoot, I've put 300 rounds through it today no problems at all. Buds service was also great.

Purchased this .380 in hopes of it serving a good carry purpose for my wife. Gun would fire the first round (from both mags) and fail to fire all other rounds. The gun would not "reset" the trigger after firing the first double action shot. I would have to slap, rack and then would go bang. I was shooting Winchester white box and it did this for the entire 100 rounds that I had available. I am a LEO and limpwristing is not the issue. Am sending back to Bersa and I will update once I contact them. This gun really has great potential but I can not recommend for carry. It's too bad, this gun is very attractive and feels great in my hand but I would feel safer carrying a big stick.

Perfect package. 2 mags, leather holster, nice case, clean gun with 2 different grips, and also a small gun cleaner. Can't beat the price and reliability of this gun. thanks Buds!

2nd purchase from Bud's, and like the first one, flawless transaction. Bought the gun on Saturday, and my FFL called me on Thursday. Beautiful, sexy little gun, and since the .357 magnum was a little heavy for my wife's small arms, we thought this would be a good one for her. Took it out today and ran 100 rounds through it. It performed perfectly. Nice gouping, and easy to clean. She may have trouble getting this from me. Haven't shot it yet with the walnut grips on it yet, but they are very crisp looking and totally change the look of the gun.
