I wanted a .380, for fun shooting, and heard much about PPK jamming and feed problems. For under $200 I purchased the Bersa dual-tone. 700 rounds (Wolf) later not a single jam. One problem, once the gun is fairly dirty, the side is released when a mag is inserted.
Haven't tried other ammo besides Wolf .380 ball. Never hear much about these, any comments?

Where do you get .380 Wolf? I can only find Wolf in 9mm.
FYI there are several threads on TFL praising the Bersa. Range master at my favorite range wears one and sings its praise regularly. I bought the FEG PPK clone, which I like very much, but if I ever need to replace it I'll look closely at the Bersa. |

I have several hundred rounds thru mine, and not so much as one hiccup, also very accurate. Excellent gun for the money.

Picked up a case of Wolf .380 at a gun show. Can't beat the price, but some of the rounds had slow burning primers, giving a fizzle pop effect.
I can consistently hit 6"-8" plates at 50-75 feet. |
