I carry the Thunder CC Model and I love it. It has an excellent trigger, minimal recoil, good ergonomics with 3 full finger grips, decent capacity. Absolutely lights out accuracy. I have had no reliability issues either.
I just bought the BP380CC for my daughter to shoot as a companion to her G25. Super nice, and they have done away with the mag disconnect for all of the BPCC’s. Mine doesn’t have one, so I confirmed with Talon Distributing. Can’t wait for the double stacks.
@@jason200912 yeah but too bad they don’t make the Omega any longer. I believe it was discontinued either in 2019 or 2020. Good luck fining a NIB one from a dealer. The current CZ 75 BD or B can be “Cajunized” by Cajun Gun Works and/or I believe Apex makes a trigger for it as well IIRC. Personally, I like the CZ 75 B and BD models just the way they are right out of the box. The trigger is pretty good as is already.
The Bersa TPR9 is also a nice pistol. Its kind of a copy of the Sig 226 but about ½ the price. Its cool you show guns that working ppl with a family can afford 👍👍
Hello, I hope all is well with you and your family. I just want to say, you must have a lot money, with all guns and accessories for them. Have a great weekend and please stay safe my TH-cam friend..
Had a Bersa TPR9C for a while. Very good quality firearm with excellent features,but the grip was a little chunky and didnt fit me where i could get comfortable with it. Overall was impressed with Bersa.
Of the budget friendly pistols that you have reviewed recently, which ones would you recommend for EDC? I like the Glock 26, but I can't afford it. Your opinions are greatly appreciated. 👍
Not all guns need a trigger dingus... and I'm certain that the ONLY reason it exists on Glocks is a drop safety. In Glocks though, the trigger and the trigger bar go in the same direction, because the pivot of the trigger is above the trigger bar pivot... but on many other guns, the trigger bar and trigger go different directions... so they "balance" each other... so when dropped, the kinetic energy of the trigger bar will counter-act the kinetic energy of the trigger (assuming the weights of them are also fairly balanced). That makes the trigger dingus completely unnecessary in many guns and for that, it may be unfair to not carry it, because it doesn't have a trigger safety. It may just not be necessary. (The trigger safety on Glocks has nothing to do with stopping the gun from firing when something else pushes on the trigger. That's normally not how it works and the fact that people always shoot themselves with Glocks while re-holstering and/or when the gun is forced into the holster proves that). edit: it does kind of look like the trigger bar pivots below the trigger pin on the BP9CC though.
I think they do need it. P320 gets a lot of accidenta fire because it uses such a light, fully cocked striker. Most striker pistols or half cocked. Taurus also has one super unique double action striker in case of bad primers
@@jason200912 The trigger dingus does not make the trigger harder to pull though. I agree that the trigger is too short and light (like a single action), but a trigger dingus wouldn't fix anything.
@@deucedeuce1572 it forces it to require direct frontal contact instead of sideways trigger contact. Also protects against any inertia of a trigger creeping back after impact
@@jason200912 Yeah, it's so rare for sideways force on a trigger, but not centered though. It don't protect much except drop safety like you're saying with the inertia. If that inertia risk did not exist, the dongle would be almost completely useless. It hasn't done much to limit the whole "glock leg" phenomenon. I know that's not technically the guns fault... but if the gun had any ability to stop that from happening, it wouldn't be a common enough occurrence to actually be called "Glock leg" for all these decades.
@@deucedeuce1572 sideways forces happens with clothes brushing. Rare means it should have the safety. Just like the firing pin block debate back in 1990
i’ve been carrying this for 6 months. i guarantee that you cannot accidentally release that mag.. that mag release button is stiff. you can only do that intentionally. that trigger tho! just got back from the range & shooting double taps are beautiful! :) the trigger is 3-4lbs & the secret is ‘ don’t play with the trigger & it won’t shoot ‘.. you know, like every other handgun ? 🤨 the action of pulling the trigger works on all triggers right ? #triggerdiscipline
I have to agree on magazine disconnects. If a gun has one and it can't be removed, the gun is not a good carry gun in my opinion. Some people say they're more beneficial though, because if someone is overpowering you and is taking your gun, you can hit the mag release to release the mag and make the gun unable to shoot, so the assailant can't shoot you with your own gun. In that case though, you could just release the mag and then shoot the round in the chamber before he takes it from you and have the same effect.
They don't seem to fail so I don't see much harm to having them. Usually they make the trigger feel crunchy. Another bad part is if they fall out if place and get jammed into other gun internals
The sheild is .095 thick. While the sheild plus is 1.1. The glock 26 is 1.26. So if the diffrence between the glock 26 to sheild plus is so noticeable, why wouldn't the diffrence between the sheild and the sheild plus?
Not necessarily. Some times i like a high capacity fire arm, but some times i like a 7 to 10 round capacity single stack for lighter times. The extra room and bullet weight adds up. Especially in the pocket. For this i carry a revolver or single stack micro 9 since i dont have faith in 380’s to function
@@OLMmedic just load your double stack mag to 7 rounds if you can't handle the ammo weight. The gun itself is thinner and lighter than those single stacks
@@baptistgaming91 the single stack is nearly the same width as a 365, hellcat, and the shield single stack is still fatter than the new stoeger 9mc. 3 examples considered the best micro 9mms ever made.
if you pull it, yeah. don’t finger your trigger & you’ll be ok. i don’t get ppl that want a pistol where they can play with the trigger on a loaded handgun. who does that ?
@@humbaba_7730 Not a good defensive carry trigger. Just an opinion. I know that others such as yourself feel differently. Just like some guys would rather carry heavy hammer first pull triggers.
I used to own the VP 9 CC I would never buy another one. I own that same gun and could not find any parts for it nowhere. The one I bought. I bought it used. Someone put the wrong Guied rod. Spring in itand no gun Smith around could find a part for it. It was hard to break down because of it. The gun was accurate and fast. But did not hold a much ammo. And you could not get parts nowhere. Eagle imports stopped importing them.
Lol......I own A Taurus and a Bersa. Both are excellent pistols for the money. You have your opinion though. Lots of others to choose from. To each, his own.
Bersa is a great brand I've got over 4k rounds in my thunder & so far so good!

This pistol was way ahead of its time.
It wouldn't be A SPN video without hearing his family in the baackground....I fricking love it!!!!
They are coming out with a double stack model of the bp9
It has a serialized chassis, so hopefully it will be a conversion kit including grip frame and magazine.
I love my Bersa BP9CC! So much I cerakoted the slide sniper green, added grip tape, added night sights, and a nice olight with laser. Love it!
Exactly!!! Bersa bp9cc trigger is good

SPN you gotta get a CZ 75 BD. Old school you’ll absolutely LOVE!
The omega has the best trigger if you like a rolling gentle wall.

I have guns and ammo and I’m
broke 😂
This is my primary edc ! I have Glock rear ghost ring sights and flat faced trigger called “ galvinero” from Galloway precision
Had a Bersa TPR9C for a while. Very good quality firearm with excellent features,but the grip was a little chunky and didnt fit me where i could get comfortable with it. Overall was impressed with Bersa.
I always liked the Bersa BP9CC, but I couldn't get past the fact that they advised not carrying it with a round in the chamber.
don’t play with the trigger. i’ve carried with 1 in the chamber for the past 6 months & my junk is still intact.

Respect!
Speaking of sleeping on it, have you ever looked into anything from Kahr Arms?

Not a bad gun. So many good guns for cheap out there

Anyone have an idea of when the double-stack BP9 is coming out?
may sometime i heard.
These single stacks rightfully should be slept on since they're the same thickness as double stack micros
The sheild is .095 thick. While the sheild plus is 1.1. The glock 26 is 1.26.
So if the diffrence between the glock 26 to sheild plus is so noticeable, why wouldn't the diffrence between the sheild and the sheild plus?
