Title: My Bersa UC 9MM Range Report
Post by: Landor on November 24, 2008, 02:49:30 PM
Well I started by putting 100 rounds through my Glock I wanted to have something to compare the UC 9 to. So after that i loaded up the 3 mags for my Bersa and put one in the gun and decocked it. I pulled the long trigger and shot about 1 inch high on my aim point of the target. Keep in mind this is the first time I pulled the trigger on this gun ever. The first thing that I REALLY noticed was the lack of recoil compared to my Glock. There was very little recoil. I was able to immediately sight back in on my target after pulling the trigger. The stock sights were right on and the gun felt great in my hand. I have to tell you, I love this gun. I put a total of 150 rounds through it. On the last 50 I loaded up a MichiganCPL One target and did two to the chest double taps and one to the head practice at 10 yards. I was right on on every shot to the chest except one was outside the line. The head shots were a bit harder. I managed to get every shot on the head but not all of them were in the circle. Bang for buck, this gun is well worth it. I also let my wife shoot it since I bought it for her. ( IT'S MINE NOW ). She put 100 through it also. She shot great. She was right on using the Plinker One Target at 7 yards. She loaded and racked it with no problems what's so ever. If you are looking for a carry gun or something for your wife or girlfriend I would highly recommend a Bersa UC 9mm.

All three mags worked great. Not one failure during the 250 round session.

DAMN I love this gun.

Good report.  Have any idea why recoil seemed less than the Glock?

Nice looking gun, and congrats on a choice that fits and shoots well.

Is it a 3" barrel?

What is the magazine capacity?

Congrats, and thanks for the report. I notice that the frame and grip are really sculpted. Sometimes that can increase your hand's resistance to the recoil, and maybe that's why it seems better that way.

It is a 3.5 inch barrel.

I am thinking the way the grip makes you hold the gun is what reduces the recoil.

The mag holds 13+1

It really is a sweet shooter.

Grip looks like it helps for the recoil. Is it a touch heavier than the glock as well?
