I like the Firestorm in .22LR as a plinker. I have read sone good things about them. What's your actual experience? Gun snobs that don't like them but have never tried one, please don't post.

I have Bersa Thunder 380 for a couple of years now. Overall a nice variation of Walther PP/PPK family.

From the quality point of view I had an issue with the disconnector spring that made me send it for warranty repair 3 times. If you google the Bersa Thunder 380 and disconnector spring you'd see that it is rather common. But the customer service is good. I am not sure if I can trust my life to this but on the other hand I do not believe in selling firearms unless absolutely necessary All together I have about 500 rounds through it.

Thunder 380 owner here. Bought it used from PK90. The slide lock needs to be replaced on mine, otherwise, it's fine. I had a problem with lips - mag lips that is, once I finessed the mag lips back into spec I no longer had a problem with failure to feed. I have two aftermarket mags now that I have no problem with either.

 

The double action trigger is LONG. The single action trigger is (almost frighteningly) light.

 

For the price, I would buy another, and after a few hundred rounds (as with any gun) trust my life to it.
