I have had my Bersa for a little over a year now, and have put well over 1000 rounds downrange with only a handful of jams--all user error. I have found that this gun has only jammed if I "limp-wrist"" while rapid-firing. Given, this should not be the manner in which one is shooting a gun in the first place, but I wanted to put the pistol through the runnings. Overall, I am very pleased. The gun is very comfortable to hold and shoot, the beavertail above the grip prevents any biting unlike my previous pistols, and the ribbed aluminum along the forward aspect of the grip is very convenient to ensure a good hold. I have fired ball, flat-tipped, and hollow point ammo, and have had not trouble with either. I bought the Bersa for its size and concealability. I carry mine daily, anywhere my larger Sig is too conspicuous. Overall, I highly recommend this as a backup, or even primary Conceal & Carry to anyone interested in a good close range self defense gun. "
