Anyone have experience with these guns?? Good shooters? Poor? I'm getting one for my brother as a Christmas gift. Just wondering if it's good, dependable gun.

Thanks for any input!

Very good. Very dependable. They like the hotter ammo.

Thank you Sig...thats all I needed to know.

He's not good enough for a Sig or H&K.

Gun dealer said it was a good shooter..was'nt sure. Had to hear from the board, to confirm.

Thanks again,

I own a Bersa.  It shoots very well, and will feed russian ammo without a hickup.

I keep mine stocked with Federal Personal Defense Hydrashocks.  Hot little load.

Although I like mine, there are lighter guns in the same price range that shoot a fullsize 9mm load.

Unless you just found a cherry deal, or your brother specifically 'wants' the Bersa 380, there are some better choices out there.  Kahr has a couple of options.

Yes RG...not really "cherry" deal..but, cheap. $175 for nib nickel .380, holster, 2 mags and Hogue condom.

It will be his first hand gun. I thought it would be a nice Christmas gift...he's been wanting one forever.

IMHO, that is a nice deal!  I paid 215.00 for mine about 4? years ago.  I only have 1 mag for it, but I think it came with 2.  Not sure if I just 'lost' the other mag, or if I never had a spare in the first place.  (the mind is a terrible thing to waste, huh?)

I trust mine.  It is my BTN gun.  "Better than Nothing"

I bought a Bersa 380 a couple years back, and it has worked flawlessly with 500+ rounds put through it. Junk ammo to hydrashoks no issues.. I think it is a great little gun at a super price. I seem to be a terrible shot by nature, but when I handed it to others at the range they were impressed with it. Hope he likes it. Nice gift!

Mine is accurate, reliable.  My only 'complaint' is the thing is heavy for a .380
