The Bersa .380 is a great shooting gun, well balanced, fits nicely in your hand and the sights are fine.
Have fun with it.

I thought it was going to be a P-07.  Went into the LGS today to get one and walked out with a SP-01 instead.  ;D

That is a big difference to the P-07 you wanted. :)

I thought that too as I walked out the door.......

I think I still want a P-07.......but room will have to be made first.  That means either the P-09 or the SP-01 will have to go.  Thinking right now that it might be the 09........

Decisions, decisions.......

When I purchased the P-01 I thought... Why?
Now since I have the Kadet, I am glad I did. It just took time, but worked out.

I really like my P-01.  Now I have the big brother that spent to much time at the Thanksgiving table to go along with it........

Probably my favorite gun as far as handling is my PCR.  It just feels good......

I agree for the compact, but love my 75BD for target shooting. I just love the non railed pistols better.

Same here... I recently got my SP-01 back from CGW and took it and my PCR to the range this past weekend... I expected the SP-01 to shoot noticeably better (especially with the X300 I have on it) but the PCR is neck and neck. There is just something about the balance of the PCR... and it does have a slightly better trigger. My only gripe with it is the rear sight...

Is your gripe with the rear sight or the notch cut into the slide for the rear sight?

I recently completed a Sig Masters Course for rifle and pistol.  On completion we were offered the chance to purchase a Sig 320 in our choice of caliber and model (carry, fullsize).  I was told it was at Sig employee cost which was too good to pass up. 

Beyond that I would be interested in the single stack 9mm that Glock is supposed to be releasing in the first quarter of 2015.

Both, really...

I find the notch too narrow, miss having a ledge on the front (for a defensive pistol I really think that should be standard) and would prefer an all black rear sight. (I have blacked out the dots - that helps but is not ideal)

The stupid reverse cutout on the slide keeps me from replacing the sight.

Next up is a used Gl*** 17 ...one of my sons wants to get into pistol shooting. I'd like to preserve the integrity and functionality of my CZ's and let him learn the basics (including maintenance) on something else  ;D

Well even though I stated above I like the non railed pistols better, I just purchased the P-01 OD Green from Damascus. I let one slip through my fingers last Winter but not this time!
Man, I am one happy CZ owner!
