It is sometimes known as the “Hafdasa,” from the initials of the manufacturer (Hispano Argentino Fabrica de Automoviles SA), or the Sistema Model 1927. It closely resembles the M-1911A1, but the hammer is shaped differently, there is no grip safety, the notching on the grip plates and the slide are different, and the trigger pivots instead of sliding – the only parts of a Ballister Molina that will fit in a Colt M-1911A1 or most of its clones are the barrel and the magazines. The Ballester Molina is also a bit smaller than an M-1911A1, or at least is seems to fit a small hand better. Besides Argentina, this pistol was sold on the civilian market, and a number of them were purchased by the British in 1940s to equip certain clandestine units. Though those found today are generally quite serviceable; despite the numerous changes from the M-1911A1 design, the Ballister Molina is a well-made pistol. The finish, however, was poor when applied to the pistols when manufactured, and virtually all have been refinished by now. It should be noted that Argentina was a late hold-out for the .45 ACP cartridge, and the Molina remained in service well into the 1970s.

Like most such pistols, the frame and grips are the primary polymer elements, though the slide is a light-but-strong steel. The grips and frame are made of a proprietary compound resin that is said to be ten times stronger than Kydex, but just as light in weight. The BP-9CC is small enough for concealed carry in most places on the body, including ankle carry or simply dropping into a pocket.

The Model 64 has some superficial similarity to the PPK, but this is only coincidental and the two pistols are not related. The action is SAO, with blowback operation. The barrel is a short 3.54 inches, good for short range but not much beyond. There is a manual safety behind the trigger; this blocks the trigger directly when applied. The magazine catch, like many 1960s pocket pistols, is on the heel of the pistol. Bersa started out with the M-64, and continued manufacturing them until 1970. Despite the nomenclature, the Model 62 is a development of the Model 64; the Model 64 was introduced in 1960 and the Model 62 in 1962. (Who knows,) The Model 62 is essentially a Model 64 with a longer barrel, larger grip and magazine, and adjustable sights designed for target shooting. The barrel of the Model 62 is a nice 6 inches long. Manufacture continued until 1968.

It is simple to operate and take care of, and is quite popular in South America. It has an external loop hammer, blued finish, plastic grip plates, and a marked resemblance to early Bernardelli designs that is probably no more than coincidental. The M-97 also has a slide lock on the frame near the rear of the slide. The magazine release button is large and just above the trigger guard on the right side, with the manual safety button above and to the rear of the magazine release. The M-97 is actually a version of an earlier pistol, the M-644, scaled up to fire a larger caliber, as the M-644 is designed for .22 Long Rifle. The M-383 is a modernized version of the M-97; it uses lighter, more modern metals and is thus lighter than the M-97, and also has a somewhat shorter grip holding a smaller magazine. The barrel is also slightly shorter. The M-383A is a deluxe version of the M-383, with a finish of polished blue or nickel and walnut grips; it also uses DAO operation. Both were discontinued in 1988, replaced by the M-83. The M-83 is an M-383 with simplified controls and dehorned contours. (For game purposes, the M-383, M- 383A, and M-83 have identical statistics.) file:///E/My%20Webs/pistols/argentine_pistols.htm[8/9/2020 11:08:45 AM] Argentine Pistols Weapon Ammunition Weight Magazines Price M-97 .380 ACP 0.8 kg 8 $139 M-383/83 .380 ACP 0.68 kg 7 $137 M-644 .22 Long Rifle 0.65 kg 8 $88 Weapon ROF Damage Pen Bulk SS Burst Range M-97 SA 1 Nil 1 3 Nil 9 M-383/83 SA 1 Nil 1 4 Nil 8 M-644 SA -1 Nil 0 2 Nil 6 Bersa Firestorm Notes: The Mini Firestorm, which came first, is a compact polymer pistol made by Bersa SA. It is a small, inexpensive (but not cheap in quality) pistol for backup and self-defense. Despite the small size, its original chambering was the powerful .45 ACP cartridge; later, other chamberings were added. The barrel is medium-short at 3.5 inches. The Mini Firestorm has an ergonomic grip with finger swells and an extended magazine floor finger support. Construction is largely of steel. Only slight modifications are made to give a nod to US import regulations. It is otherwise a standard sort of compact pistol. Bersa, after the success of the Mini Firestorm, decided to make a full-sized version of the Mini Firestorm. This version merely sizes up the barrel to 5.1 inches and alters the rest of the pistol accordingly. Twilight 2000 Notes: This weapon does not exist.

The Mini-Thunder was introduced at the SHOT show in 1998. The Mini-Thunder has a light alloy frame and steel slide, and uses a more-or-less standard Browning action.
