    Had one of the CC models when they first came out. First trip to the range and the extractor pin waked out sending the extractor and spring ... well I have no idea where they went. The good news is that they took care of me and before long I had it back functioning at 100%. My feeling is that you'll probably get a good piece but if you don't they'll take care of you.

    I had one of the older Bersa 380s and the spring that returns the trigger broke. Gun worked fine other than that. I still have a couple of extra springs but got rid of the gun years ago.

    I've had at least one around for several years and like them a lot. They simply do what they are supposed to do without a lot of frills. When my sister went looking for her first handgun, the Bersa was among the ones she tried and ended up being the one she took home. I still have my 380CC and if I had to choose between that and my PPK, I'd go with the Bersa.

    I've got a regular Bersa .380 and a CC. Both are nice shooting guns, but the regular .380 is a little big for what it is. The CC is nice for the pocket, with a little more heft than a Kel Tec P3AT or LCP.

    IMHO, you can't go wrong with either.

    Wife has carried and shot the tu-tone Bersa version for about
    10 years. I own the reverse tu-tone version in Firestorm. Both
    very reliable firearms that have always eatin' any type 380 round
    put down the throat. Good guns, good buy's.

    I have had my Bersa 380 cc for two years now. When I first got the gun I shot some re-loads that a buddy of mine made. Gun did not like the re-loads, mutiple jams. Now I shoot off the shelf ammo and have not had a single jam. I really like this gun. It carries very easily. Is easy to maintain and shoots pretty darn good. With the right personal protection ammo this gun can get the job done. I would recommend it.
