    Finally shot the little beast today during dinner break. Was pretty pleased with it. For the fun of it... I found a bad guy and let him have it in a mock self defense situation right off the bat. I figured it would actually be a good test since I hadn't fired the pistol yet and no warm up. I wanted to see if this pistol would save me. I step off to 12 yards, turned and unloaded the 9 round mag first at his heart. I didn't rapid fire it as fast as I could but shot at a pretty fast clip. Pretty much shoot, settle back on the spot and shoot. Very little kick so it took no time to settle for the next shot.

    I then grab the 7 round mag that came with the pistol and unloaded it at his head. While it's not the greatest shooting in the world... he died. I put 50 rounds though it and it ate it like candy. Very nice gun to shoot one handed also.

    I think Britney is going to love this pistol. That will be the true test and the biggest reason why I decided on this pistol.

    Here's the bad guy...

    I have heard many good things about the Bersa 380. Though I have never shot one, may be something to look into.

    I looked at this gun as well, didn't fit me like the PK380 does, I went with the Walther. I heard nothing but good about the Bersa! Hopefully the gun fits Britney well otherwise you got a new gun! Nice shootin!

    Glad your shooting is much better than your drawing ;)
