Where to find Bersa handguns in NJ?

Recommended Posts

Ive been trying to find a Bersa Thunder .380 and/or a Thunder .22lr. I can find them available online but id like to avoid the hassle of transfer fees, etc. Plus id like to check one out in person rather than buying sight unseen online.

 

Does anyone know any shops in North or Central NJ that carry the Bersa Thunder series?

 

Thanks!!!!

... Pine Land Gun Shop, 1 mile from Central Jersey R&P.  Cyrus Servell, the owner now has one black matte and is always ordering more. He sells many to law enforcement for back ups so he keeps the nickel & blued ones in inventory.

Bought the Thunder 380 Plus satin nickel yesterday from Cyrus ... $375 cash.  Kept seeing the 15 rd magazine ones for $300+ online but by the time one has to wait for it to be shipped - pay $35 shipping + FFL Transfer - NICS and NJ Sales Tax, your way over $400.  Total cost with NICS and NJ Tax  at Pine Land was $417 ... and I walked out the door with it 15 minutes later.

Next stop was CJ indoor range and rapid fired 50 Speer rounds.  Not one chambering - extraction issues or hiccups ... I'm pleased with the features, comfortable feel in the hand, double action, PPK style, the POA accuracy, it's single stage set trigger and the 4# 7oz trigger pull

 

Then on the way home, stopped in at Guns & Roses on Rte 37 in Toms River.  Joe Hawk, the owner found me three 380 MTM 50rd Flip Top ammo boxes from David the gunsmith in Lakehurst.  He sold them to me for his cost at 2 bucks each and plans to stock ammo boxes for various calibers after convincing him that Midway's cost plus shipping plus the wait is getting to be a PIA

Needless to say, it was a good day & I came home a Happy Camper :dancer:

 

So being new to 380's - 300 once fired - Lee Dies - Dillon shell plate & powder funnel and an Accurate mold for the clone of the obsolete 100gr Lyman 356632 TC bullet have been ordered too!

    • We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in
    • I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html
    • The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam 
    • I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.
