Best Answer

The Bersa Thunder has a design based on the Walther PPK. Walther has been making pistols of this nature for nearly 100 years.

The Walther PPK is ~$200--$300 more expensive than the Bersa Thunder. It tends to weigh more than the Bersa. The two pistols function almost identically, one main difference is how the pistol is disassembled.

The Walther is disassembled by pulling down on the trigger guard and pulling the slide back and up, then forward and off. The Bersa has a dedicated disassembly lever on the right side.

One unique feature of the Bersa is that the front of the trigger guard has a finger notch and knurling (checkering) for the off-hand to place a finger on while shooting. Its a small feature that can be used, or ignored.

It then comes down to personal preferences. There may be more variety with Bersa, and some say it has a smoother (easier) action.

What is a bersa thunder 380 concealed carry?

Bersa has a line of pistols called the Thunder. The .380 acp version is modeled closely on the Walther PPK. There are a wide variety of options with the Bersa Thunder--mostly color schemes, grips and other accouterments. One major difference in this line is a pistol designed especially for carrying in a concealed fashion. They basically took the regular Thunder pistol, and rounded off many of the protrusions so the pistol will be less likely to snag on anything when it is pulled out in an emergency. It likely has a magazine capacity of 7 rounds.

How good is a bersa 380handgun?

Asking someone how good something is will yield answers of opinion. It is modeled after the Walther PPK, and many feel that it actually IMPROVES upon the famous handgun in many ways. It is also half to one third the cost of a Walther PPK. Like most handguns, it is not meant for engagements much greater than 10 meters. As with any semiautomatic handgun, it may be particular with the type of ammunition used--especially hollowpoints. The Bersa Thunder does everything a good handgun should, and is quite reliable. An honest assessment would give it a 9/10.
