Just out of curiousity, does anyone know if the design of the Bersa Thunder 9 ( Ultra Compact) is derived in any way from the discontinued Walther P88?
I'd read that someplace, and it was mentioned that "imitation is the most sincere form of flattery" and that the Walther P88 was a very fine pistol.
I am well pleased with my BT9/UC and it has been 100% reliable (with the exception of some wwwb ammo.. But that same ammo also caused me problems in several other 9's, so it was ammo related, not a problem with the pistol itself).
The BT9/UC is also very accurate. As accurate as my all time favorite 9mm pistol the Sig P239. I like the 14+1 capacity too...
I've other 9mm pistols, Sig/S&W/KelTec/Walther/Star and I think the Bersa is as good as any of them, and better than most.
Just curious.
Thanks,
J. Pomeroy
