Made in Italy with an oval PB crest and a clear "Made in Italy" rollmark, this BDA-380 reflects its Beretta manufacture for Browning/FN. The slide shows the enclosed profile distinct from open-slide Beretta 80-series pistols, along with rear slide serrations and an external extractor.
The pistol operates on a blowback system and uses a DA/SA trigger with a spur hammer. Controls include an ambidextrous slide-mounted safety/decocker and a left-side magazine release positioned behind the trigger guard.
Sight elements are fixed combat style for fast alignment, with a front blade and a rear square-notch that is drift-adjustable for windage. The extractor also functions as a visual and tactile loaded-chamber indicator.
A steel slide over an aluminum-alloy frame keeps weight balanced while maintaining durability. The blue/black finish complements the smooth wooden grips set with gold Browning deer-head medallions. The double-column magazine design is paired here with two included 10-round Mec-Gar magazines.
