Title: Bersa Thunder .380 vs KelTec P-3AT
Post by: garand4life on November 01, 2007, 06:43:13 PM
I am curious as to if any of you could provide feedback on the concealability of the Bersa. I'm looking at both but am not quite comfortable with what I'm reading about the KelTec. I had a Taurus Millenium and found it to big and I don't want a repeat with the Bersa.Is it fairly concealable in a Jacket pocket or say a pants pocket holster if I was in just casual attire not ultra baggy jeans? I basically need something to be an alternate to my Taurus 1911 (Which I Love, Thanks Michael for your information on it.) Would the Bersa be a good choice have any of you who have one have any regrets?

Just looking at the Bersa's in the LGS thru the glass they appear to be about as big as my Walther PPK/s. That would be too big to fit in the pocket of MY kakis. For pants pocket carry the Kel Tec P32/P3 AT is about the upper limit for me. Big guys wearing bib overalls or cargo pants can probably carry larger guns in their pockets. The Marshall/Sanow data showed the 32 ACP to be almost as effective as the 380 ACP so you might consider the Kel Tec P32 which has one extra round and would be somewhat easier to shoot.
