Here are my first two 10 round target at 15 yards:

I was reasonably impressed. I went through 100 rounds of UMC 230gr ball at various distances and firing positions. The groups opened up considerably offhand at 25 yards. No malfunctions of any kind and the brass comes out of the gun looking like its already been tumbled.
My 50 round session with my P-3AT was less stellar.

Re:
Gonna at least get rid of the plastic grips... which are the only pieces of plastic I can find anywhere in the pistol. I'll shoot it as is for a while but I imagine a Bo-mar rear sight going on it... possibly a new front as well. We'll see where we go from there. That's one of the reasons I liked this pistol. It's a lot like my ARs... big erector sets. Lots of parts to chose and interchange.Berserker said:

As you can see, I've already broken out the files...
It's got an Ed Brown Beavertail grip safety and a Ed Brown Tactical Safety lever... nice and slim, but lots of thumb room. Many more mods to follow.
Don't EVER let anyone tellya you need a milling machine to work on these puppies!

Sorry to bump this to the top...
But I came across this at a local gun store today. They've ordered 100 of them for a "Father's Day Sale".
Gee, I'm not a father -- but I wonder if I should treat myself to one anyway??
It comes in a plastic case similar to Midi's -- but in olive drab rather than blue.
I thought the price was great -- especially including 3 mags.

I've got the Gold Cup NM -- and now the Bersa Thunder in .45...just trying to find a reason to justify another purchase.

I'd really look for a "loaded". The ejection port on that is fine for NATO ball ammo, but you'll really want the lowered, beveled port for HPs. Cost shouldn't be more than another $50 new and there are other refinements as well... slightly beveled mag well, near match quality stainless barrel and bushing...
Unless you're really trying to assemble an authentic WWII "kit" for some reason, I'd go the other way.

Naw, I just thought it was a good price -- but my Gold Cup eats everything I feed it...
Whew! Been finally talked out of buying a gun while browsing this forum! :wink:
