That’s great to hear! I found the recoil management to be quite manageable too. For a compact gun, it performs well without too much kick.

I’ve shot the Bersa CC 380 in various weather conditions, and it held up surprisingly well. Even in the rain, it functioned without a hitch!

That’s awesome! Have you noticed any differences in accuracy when shooting fast versus slow?

In my experience, the Bersa CC 380 can still shoot accurately even when firing quickly. Recoil is minimal, so you can stay on target easily.

I’ve struggled a bit with the grip size. It feels a little big for my hands, making recoil management a challenge sometimes.

I hear you on that! Perhaps trying some grip enhancements might help. It really is a fun gun to shoot otherwise!

I find the Bersa CC 380 a bit snappy, but I’m used to full-sized pistols. It’s definitely a trade-off for concealability.

That’s interesting. Have you tried the extended magazine? It can help balance the weight a bit more.

I’ve heard mixed reviews about the Bersa CC 380. Some praise it, while others claim it jams frequently. Anyone experienced this?

I’ve shot over 500 rounds without a single jam. I guess it can depend on the ammo used.

The Bersa CC 380 is like a trusty old friend! Sure, it has quirks, but it’s reliable for personal defense. A bit of personality, I suppose!

I’ve had my Bersa CC 380 for over two years now, and it has been quite reliable with regular cleaning. The only issue I’ve noticed is occasional feeding problems with certain hollow points. Has anyone else experienced this?

I’ve seen similar issues mentioned in other forums. It helps to stick with reputable brands for ammo. Cleaning it after every few range trips also helps avoid malfunctions!

I agree with fisherjose! Consistent cleaning and using quality rounds can significantly enhance reliability. For maintenance, I recommend a detailed cleaning every 200-300 rounds.

My experience with the Bersa CC 380 has been mostly positive, but I did have some issues with the recoil spring wearing out faster than I expected. It might need replacement every 1,000 rounds or so. Just be sure to inspect it regularly!

I’ve had mine for three years and haven’t had any issues, but I do clean it every other month regardless of usage. It’s important to keep up that routine! Even a little dirt can cause problems over time.

Good point! I hadn’t considered that. How do you go about replacing the recoil spring? Is it a DIY job?

Yes, replacing the recoil spring can be done at home with basic tools! Just make sure to follow a guide or video to avoid mishaps. It’s a pretty straightforward process once you get the hang of it.
