Browning BDA .380 Surplus Pistol. This Browning semi automatic pistol is chambered in .380 Auto and is double/single action. This model features classic wood grips and has a 13+1 capacity. Pistol is in surplus condition.
The BDA .380 Pistol is based on the proven Beretta Model 81 and/or 84 design. These models were offered in .32 ACP and .380 ACP, with .32 ACP variants manufactured by FN Herstal for European markets and Beretta manufactured the .380 ACP variants at own factories by themselves on behalf of the FN Herstal.
Beretta did not sell these pistols under its own branding. Instead, the .380 variants by Beretta were sold as Browning BDA 380 by Browning Arms Company for the North American markets. The Beretta/Browning models are distinguished by its markings, with right side of the slide being marked "Fabrique National Herstal" with the FN logo followed by "Made in Italy", and the left side of the slide has markings "Browning Arms Co. Morgan Utah & Montreal, P.Q."
The BDA .380 failed commercially, despite some purchases by the Belgian Judicial Police for female officers. The production of the FN 140DA pistol was discontinued in 1987, while the Beretta/Browning version was withdrawn in circa 1997. Surplus Condition-NRA Rating of Very Good-Excellent
