I bought a Bersa Thunder .45 Ultra Compact the other day as my first gun. I had never fired one before, but I went to several different gun stores and most of the recommended this gun after I told them what I was looking for (easy to conceal .45 with minimal recoil and reliability, and something that wasn't going to break my wallet).
I just got back from the range and I'm very disappointed with this gun. At the advice of other Bersa owners (www.bersatalk.com) I used CCI Blazer Brass ammo but I must've had about 15 failure to feeds. I do not trust this gun with my life now.
Anyways, I am going to keep the gun (after I take it to the gunsmith of course) but now I'm looking for a reliable self defense weapon. I heard the term "six for sure" so I'm looking to get a good, reliable, concealable revolver. I prefer to keep the price reasonable, but I care about my self defense more than my wallet, so I'll take all recommendations into consideration.
Thanks!
