I picked out the Bersa at the San Antonio gun show one summer.
It was the smallest thing I could find that I could get my whole hand on.
And the price was way right.

I've handled one of those. I liked it.
I've probably put maybe 1000 rounds through it.
(Back when bullets were cheap. .380 is really high now!)

That's just nuts. .380 is a 9mm short, 2mm shorter than 9mmp with a
lighter bullet -- and ammo costs nearly double. I never thought
reloading .380 would make any sense, but last summer ammo prices rose
to where the amortization time for the dies dropped to under 1 year.


Best guess?

Supply and demand.

Yup. About a year ago the Ruger LCP was going for about $280. Recent
price at Gander was $389. When I went to buy some .22 rimfire ammo
last week at Wal-Mart they had NO handgun ammo larger than .22. They
used to always have 9mmp, .357 mag, .40 S&W and .45ACP and usually
some .380ACP.


Just goes to show how much the public trusts the Obamassiah..and what
they are willing to do to prepare for the Day.

Shrug..works for me!

Im glad others are buying lots and lots of guns and ammo. I was not
looking forwards to shooting all those Leftwingers. Im glad to see
others are preparing for the Day.
It will help take the load off me.

"[L]iberals are afraid to state what they truly believe in, for to do so
would result in even less votes than they currently receive. Their
methodology is to lie about their real agenda in the hopes of regaining
power, at which point they will do whatever they damn well please. The
problem is they have concealed and obfuscated for so long that, as a group,
they themselves are no longer sure of their goals. They are a collection of
wild-eyed splinter groups, all holding a grab-bag of dreams and wishes. Some
want a Socialist, secular-humanist state, others the repeal of the Second
Amendment. Some want same sex/different species marriage, others want voting
rights for trees, fish, coal and bugs. Some want cradle to grave care and
complete subservience to the government nanny state, others want a culture
that walks in lockstep and speaks only with intonations of political
correctness. I view the American liberals in much the same way I view the
competing factions of Islamic
fundamentalists. The latter hate each other to the core, and only join
forces to attack the US or Israel. The former hate themselves to the core,
and only join forces to attack George Bush and conservatives." --Ron Marr
