    Super nice looking. Reminds me a bit of THE CZ 83. Hopefully 380 gets cheaper as more guns in it are sold. I wish caliber cost was based on how much actual materials go into a round. Because 380 would be cheaper than 9! And i wouldn't be paying more for 410 than 12 GA...

    Good Review! With the exception of the Safety, looks to be an improved copy of the Browning BDA .380,
    which was made by Beretta for Browning, which in turn was a modified Beretta 84.
    Had a Browning BDA .380 at one time and I might consider buying one of these Girsans.
    Looking forward to the Range Report!

      The 80x is optic cut and has a rail. If it was cheaper than $700-$800 I’d have one. I may have to settle for a girsan which I believe translates to “berettas for the poors”

      @radomguy9678 Před 3 měsíci

      Actually it is a straight blowback design. The barrel is easily removed for disassembly, but it remains completely fixed during operation. It is a Beretta 84/Cheetah design, but with an ejection port instead of the open slide, it is almost exactly like the Browning BDA 380. BDA is even in the name of this Girsan gun. Beretta made the BDA for Browning.

    Unless they changed it since they were imported by Zenith, it's a merge of the Browning BDA and Beretta 84. Maybe a little more 84 because it would take the Beretta mags and grip panels (with a little fitting).
    It is a great shooter except the hammer will nibble on your hand if you hold it high and tight. Hopefully they fixed that problem.

    @tsut9846 Před 3 měsíci

    I had a mc14 recently but it was from the original imports maybe 4-5 years ago. It was very accurate, only ran rounded nose hollow points anything with a flat nose would fail to chamber. And it was terrible about binding on reassembly to the point of the slide was half on but it wouldn’t go on completely or off. Something to watch out for. After the slide got stuck and I finally freed it up I sold it bc I didn’t trust it anymore. I’m interested if these are just more imports of the same or if they’re truly like an updated version

    Is very nice little piece, well not so little... A little on the chunky side for a 380 though. I be lying if I said I wasn't interested. I actually don't think I'd ever carry it because I really don't carry a pistol in that light of a calibre. And if I need something small well, I have 9 mm's that are smaller than that and holds the equivalent amount of rounds or more. But at the end of the day.
