It weighs the same as my 2022 even though it is all metal but just a tad smaller. I like this pistol and it shoots almost as good as my 2022. I paid $400 for it. If you are looking to expand your collection with different brand 9mm's this is a good choice. Don't expect to find the reverse two tone like the one pictured in the link because I can't find another 9mm one anywhere. It was the last one that my local Academy Sports had and I wanted to get me one. They have them in .45 but I wanted to stick with 9mm.

I tried to embed an image code directly into the post but it shows that my photo was deleted, but the image code works in other forums, go figure. So I had to hot link it for you to see it.

Kenny
I ended up signing up for Photobucket to upload images, as I couldn't get any images to upload either. I am also looking for a 9mm for CC pocket carry - lots of choices, but that's another thread.....

Are you talking upload to photobucket or your post? For post, click the img link below the pic on photobucket and it will copy then just paste into your post on a forum and it should appear. For photobucket, I have no clue.

Sorry, Kenny, I wasn't clear. I uploaded my photos to Photobucket, then used the straight URL link (NOT the html or [IMG/} links). When I click the picture icon on to post in this forum I just copy/paste that straight URL link between the [IMG/][/IMG] that shows up in the post. It's worked so far to post pics here.

Keny, regarding the Bersa - would this work for a pocket carry, or is it too big or too heavy? I'm looking to get a pocket carry 9mm. I know you said you CC your 2022, but I've tried it and it sticks out too far from my body; I have a medium frame, and wear my shirts tucked in - so I figure a small 9mm pocket carry would probably work best for me. I do like the look of that Bersa. How much recoil does it have? I fired a Ruger LC9 at the range and it jumped pretty good - not real pleasant on the hand, either - definitely not a "range gun". Other ones I've thought about (this should probably go in another post):
Kahr PM9 Kahr CW9 (cheaper than the PM9) Kahr MK9 Sig P938 Kimber Solo Kel-Tec P11 Beretta Nano Taurus Slim P709

The bersa being just .400 of an inch shorter and all metal it still has the same weight. It is also a 12rd double stack mag so width is about the same. I wouldn't consider it a pocket carry. The others you have listed, I have no experience with. I too was thinking of finding a pocket carry in 9mm but can't afford it right now. My wife's first gun was a Taurus 738 that we still have that I may pocket carry but the frame is lavender (pink, I say) and she won't let me paint it a " manly " color. Lol. I guess it doesn't matter what color it is to the person about to get hit with a .380 hydrashock slug, but come on, pink? LOL.

I totally understand on the color, Kenny! I'm still reviewing reviews and info on the Taurus 709 Slim and considering it. The Kahr CM-9 is the other one at the top of my list.
