Won a great auction a few minutes ago. Bersa Thunder .380 LNIB, 3 magazines, 3 different grips, 2 holsters (UM and Hume) all for 239 which includes shipping. Always wanted one and bid at the last second to steal this away from some poor sole who thought he had the deal

No - he got it off of a flatfish (family Soleidae).

Where'd you buy it?
I've been watching on gunbroker frequently trying to find a decent price on the nickel model, but not much luck.

I had a few Walmart whitebox FTL problems. Other ammo loads just fine in the Thunder

My wife liked her Bersa until she nabbed my Sig P239.
Congrats on the purchase... it's a nice little pistol. Bersa has improved on quality quite a bit from their older days.
