.380, Mouse Guns, Pocket Pistols Sunday, September 5, 2010 at 07:20PM I've made no bones about what I think about the Bersa Thunder .380. I think they are a great pistol for the money and anyone who buys one shouldn't be disappointed. You can read my full review here. I've never seen the high capacity version, but it certainly makes sense to me. I hope to see one at my local gun shop soon.
Here's what Bersa says about the Bersa Thunder .380 Plus:
Throughout its history, the Thunder 380 model pistols have impressed anyone requiring concealment, accuracy and reliability. The 380 Plus’s alloy frame provides strength and superior balance - at a reduced weight. At 20 oz. the 15 round Thunder 380 Plus offers plenty of extra capacity when you need it. The 380 Plus features like a lightweight frame, ambidextrous magazine catch and more operational safety including a firing pin safety and an integral locking system.

Saturday, September 4, 2010 at 11:37AM Don't ask me why but this gun really intrigues me. I just think it would be a fun pistol to own. Great for the range, and great as a nightstand gun. Plus, very accurate. One of these days...

Saturday, September 4, 2010 at 11:15AM I ran across this at the Para website and thought I'd share it with you. I wish I was rich, but since that's not an option I always want to invest in guns that look like they will really work. I hate fiddling around with fixes or shipping stuff back to manufacturers. They are guns and since most are used for personal protection they need to be engineered to work right out of the box. With that being said, here is some info from Para on the Para PXT 1911 torture test that was run:
Just how tough is Para’s PXT 1911? We asked that question of World Speed Shooting Champion Todd Jarrett, and sent him cases of ammunition to find out. Along with Shooting Gallery host, Michael Bane, we came up with the Ultimate Hot Gun Torture Test: to see how fast 1,000 rounds of .45 ACP could be poured non-stop through a Para PXT 1911. To warm up, we put a 1,000 round of 230-grain ball through the pistol. No problems. The next morning after cleaning the pistol, we started the Hot Gun Test. Jarrett chose some hot ammo, International’s Green Elite NT 155-grain frangible flat point round with a muzzle velocity of 1,150 feet per second.
