I've always been intrigued by the Browning BDA in .380.

For a time in the 80s I carried a Beretta 92F as a duty gun. My off duty gun was a S&W 39-2 in 9mm. Both guns had similar ergonomics, with the hammer dropper safety mounted up on the slide.

I was also looking for a Walther PPK and/or Browning BDA because ergonomically they worked the same. I got a PPK a number of years later. Never did get a BDA.

Now I have no earthly use for one BUT if I found a Browning BDA for a really good price, I'd buy it anyway . . .
