Fuuuuuuuuck I must admit that stainless(? fuck if I know the difference in silver-y finishes) and wood grips looks awesome.

I believe that's nickel.
I don't think that's a Thunder 380.
A Series 95 .380, perhaps?
A picture of the other side of the pistol would
confirm the model.
BT380 are pretty much the result of cultural
and legal differences between USA and a
bunch of other countries (BERSA are from
Argentina), where .380 ACP is the baddest
civilian PD round permissible.
BT 380 are mite too big/heavy for easy CC,
relative to the stopping power provided. It
points well enough, and feeds almost any
popular FMJ or JHP in its caliber.
There are 9mm CC pistols of comparable
weight and bulk, and .380 pistols in smaller
size.
They are a heck of a lot of fun to shoot, though.

thanks for the knowledge
The bersa are good pistols for the price. Some of the bigger semiautos had mag follower issues. But the .380 used steel followers so they were fine.

My 383
I had a Thunder 380 Duo Tone. It always worked well. Only problem I ever had was the rear sight flew off at the range one day. I sent them an email and they sent me a new one free. So good customer service as well. I only got rid of it because of the size. I have 9mm guns that are smaller and other 380 guns that are much smaller. It's my sisters gun now and she loves it.

Had one, slide shredded the trigger bar and sear broke right off. My friends works perfectly, and I did get a refund, but I'm still cranky. I really like those guns.

i've owned a bersa 380 combat plus for a few months and after 500rds it needs some factory authorized repair attention

which may or may not be typical, plenty of bersa owners don't get these pieces of crap like i did and their guns shoot like shit thru geese
