Walther PPK vs Bersa Firestorm 380

[RocketMan1648]

Having fired both the Walther PPK and the Bersa Firestorm (.380) I can honestly say that I prefer the Bersa. Regardless of the SIGNIFICANT cost difference, the Bersa felt "right" in my hand immediately. The Walther, as I recall, took some time (100+ rounds?) to get used to. The feel, the action, etc., but out of the box, the Bersa felt like "my" gun. If that person is still out there looking for the "James Bond" gun, pick up the Firestorm for ~$290...you simply can't go wrong. And if it's still not what you're looking for, it's perfect for CCW...trust me.

I would sort of recommend getting an airsoft version, then playing with it until the novelty wears off, all while looking for a real one. Maybe you will tire of it or the airsoft is good enough.

Absolutely...

...the best wannabe 007 gun: SIG Sauer P232.
Make it an SL for California and aplenty at Gunbroker.

New guy necro posts in a year old thread to tell us a Bersa is better than a Walther

Polish p64 is close enough for me. And cheap!!
