Bersa Pistol

[scottjajr]

Is anybody familiar with the Bersa Mini Thunder .45 I found one the other day looke like a good gun for the price but I don't know anybody who has one that can tell me something about them

I have a Bersa Thunder .380, but I have no experience with any of their other calibers. I've heard their other caliber handguns are decent, but I can't offer much more than that. I would try to find some reviews and opinions online.

Their .380s get excellent reviews (I love mine), they're inexpensive, accurate, and very reliable; but they're also not made for high round counts, and a blowback-operated gun is a different animal.

the price is what got my attention on them but any cheaper dependable pistol is what I need

I have a 380cc and had a plain 380, both fantastic pistols that I would highly reccommend. No experience with the 45 though.

I think the Bersa is a cushioning sack in the elbow or knee joint, or something like that.

I have only seen one review of the thunder .45 and it was not a positive review, I can't find it right off hand though. My .380 has been reliable and accurate.

I have the .380 and 9mm ultra compact.
Both are great pistols.
Sorry no experience with the .45

I have a 380, UC45, and the fullsize 9mm; No problem with any of them; for the price you can't go wrong. Go to La reloading Larry can get you any of them
There is a Bersatalk forum just for bersa pistols, check it out.

I may just get a .380 everybody talks good about them

My wife has a Bersa .380 and it is a solid accurate little piece. Check out this link for the 45 Thunder http://bersatalk.com/forums/17/ShowForum.aspx

Look around for 380 ammo and check the prices it's hard to find and priced high

I have owned several versions of the Bersa in .380 and they all worked well. No problems to report. Good gun for the price.

I have the Bersa thunder in 45. Great gun for the price. So far I've put 200 rounds through mine without any problems. Thought I might have one or two in breaking it in, but it shot without a hitch. It shoots about 2" left at 15 yards, but I'll fix that one day.
Also have the Bersa 380 for my wife. She loves it and it is more accurate than the 45.
Reynerson's gunsmith in Baton Rouge is an authorized repair facility for Bersa too.

I spoke to reynerson today the bersa service center in louisiana he stated the bersa 45 and other models are great pistols and he repairs very few he highly recommended it.
