The Thunder 380 is a compact .380 ACP with a 3.5" fixed steel barrel and a blowback-operated, DA/SA action. It features a spurred external hammer and a standard magazine release for straightforward, familiar handling.
The satin nickel finish on both the slide and alloy frame gives a uniform look, while the slide’s anti-glare checkered rib works with the 3-dot fixed sights for a clear sight picture. The rear sight is dovetailed with two white dots, paired to a fixed front blade with a white dot.
Controls include a slide-mounted safety/decocker and a firing pin safety. The pistol also incorporates Bersa’s integral key-operated locking system with F/S legends. Two-piece black checkered polymer grip panels provide a secure hold without adding bulk.
