Bersa T380MC Thunder 380 Combat 8+1 .380 ACP 3.5"

I had been looking at several 380 & compact 9mm options before purchasing this Bersa. Read a lot of reviews and many you-tube videos like most people do. After working through all the pros and cons I kept coming back to this one. Sort of the three bears thing; not too large, not too small, just right. Buds shipped quickly and price was very competitive. (always is). Built very solid. Very comfortable in the hand, just feels right. Has that "real gun feel". Easiest gun I own to breakdown and clean. Comfortable double action pull on first shot, nice reset and crisp single action pull. No malfunctions with ball ammo. (zero!).
I would like to point out that that this model comes with one magazine which has a flat base plate. Although the rubber grip is excellent, if you have larger hands you may want to order an additional mag with the "pinky rest". I did and now my grip is perfect. For me the 8+1 works fine. Should you feel better having more capacity Bersa does make a model just like this in a 15+1 . You can also get that one at Buds when in stock.

I've bought a hand gun and some ammo the following week and had my items in about 3 to4 days
Very happy with buds and would recommend them to anyone. Thank you buds for your quick processing or my orders.

This was the first firearm I purchased from Buds and everything was smooth and easy about the purchase. This company is great. As for the firearm, it’s exactly what I wanted and shoots great. It’s one of my carry handguns and I know I can depend on it. Just ordered a 357 from Buds which should be here any day now. I will not go anywhere else to purchase a firearm, Buds is awesome.

Fantastic little pistol. It conceals well and is fairly lightweight. I also go the 9-round mag with a little extra pinky space, and I've found the pistol fits better in the hand with that magazine. In terms of accuracy and reliability, I have nothing but good words for this Bersa after about 300 rounds through it on the first range visit.

I%u2019ve been very curious about the Bersa thunder for several years. When I opened the blue storage case and picked up this pistol, I fell in love with it. I took it to the range and had no failures with 200 rounds of cheap ammo. It is my everyday carry. I have not been able to find upgrade front sights for it so I have made my own fiber sight from the original. I am %u201Ctricking%u201D this one out because I really love the way it feels and shoots. I installed a gold plated trigger and hammer and will be having the slide cerakoted to match the OD green grips. This combat edition will be the envy of all Bersa enthusiasts.

The Bersa Thunder does not disappoint very reliable as long as I don\'t shoot Fiocchi rounds for some reason they are only ammo that gets hung up. Sights are great and produces very accurate shots. Slide stays back on last shot and engages when you add next mag. Grip feels like full size pistol and with extra capacity mag and rubber grip makes shooting enjoyable. Thanks Bud\'s!

Received my Bersa Thunder 380 recently from Bud's, very easy process. The gun came exactly as described on Bud's site. The fit and finish are quite nice for a weapon in this price range. I took to range with 50 rounds of of bulk ammo had 2 failure to eject, switched to Sig Sauer jacketed hollow points for next 20 rounds, all rounds fired and ejected as they should I'm confident this weapon will function 100% when feed good quality ammo. The recoil was easy for me to handle as I have very arthritic hands and wrists. Weapon is quite accurate, better than I can shoot I'm sure, shot both strong and off hand no problem keeping all shots on silhouette target at 10 yards. Shot all rounds in either a Weaver stance of with single handed grip. Will be my new EDC as soon as I acquaint myself with it a little more.

Like my new Bersa alot. It's a great little shooter and is serving as my concealed carry weapon. Easy to shoot, breakdown, and clean. Thanks to Bud's for the quick shipping.

Love the bersa, wife has no problems shooting it. I recommend it.

Seems to be reliable, and a good shooter. Haven't shot it much, since I've only had it a short time, and I have other guns to shoot, too, don't you see?
