New For 2023: EAA Girsan MC 14T - Easiest Loading .380

I kinda like the looks of this over the new Beretta 80x. Think it's the trigger guard that looks better over the Beretta's.

[@josephesquivel4066]

Its pretty much based off the Beretta Cheetah 86

[@MrSmith-zy2bp]

@Joseph Esquivel Yes, I know, same way the new 80x Cheetah is derived from the 84. Girsan makes even a Beretta 92 clone. However, the lines on this Girsan, specifically the trigger guard, look better to me than the new Beretta 80x Cheetah.

the magazine base plate holding the extra round is an amazing feature that means you will always have plus one

[@AxLWake]

It's cool but it's nothing new. My guess is that they took inspiration from the "Le Français" pistol. Also a tip-up barrel, double action pistol available with a magazine equipped with a loop that held a round. First models were made in 1913...

[@gerardmcquade9102]

[@askhowiknow5527]

I see what Girsan did there. I love the older flip up barrel. I consider it a safety feature - lower the hammer while out of battery without moving the slide. I wish it had the older style curves of the Cheetah - less tactical, more wood grip

[@g-mc4507]

That’s a good looking pistol. Interesting features.

Alright EAA you have my attention. I had been looking at the Beretta Tomcat because of its tip up barrel function but it only comes in 32 acp. If you're doing it in 380 I'm seriously interested. I can't wait for these to reach the stores.

[@letsdothis9063]

I love everything about it. I had grandparents that couldn't manipulate a slide, so having the tip up barrel with the firepower of a .380 is awesome. My great grandma had a .32 and it scares me that people still depend on that to save their lives. People are bigger and usually on stimulants nowadays. A .32 just isn't enough. I understand that some older or disabled people cant handle a 9mm, so i think that .380 really fills that niche. BTW my last surviving grandmother has a .357 for the house, and one in her car. And you better believe that she will pull that thing. She still shoots it occasionally, and she lives by herself, so she wont compromise on stopping power.

[@BeSatori]

.357 so I'm assuming a revolver? Those are a great option for someone who can't operate a slide easily.

[@binkyxz3]

One can make the argument for one well-placed shot from smaller caliber. What if the person has on body armor ? CIA used to train agents to employ a head shot with a .22.

[@RANDOMNATION907]

Awesome. Just what I need for my old hands. The only thing missing is a de-cocker.

[@dd_ranchtexas4501]

RANDOMNATION: Amen to that on all counts. After 30 some odd years of arthritis going from bad to REALLY bad and the 81st B-day coming up in about 2 weeks, it's time for me to find one of those. Back in the stone age when I did competition, I loved my EAA Witness. 45 Big "Iron Boat" that never failed me.....if I did my part. Wish I still had it - and could handle it . EAA made damn good products that were affordable for me. Wonder what this one will go for On The Street.

[@freedomspeech9523]

32ACP bullet has about 123-170 ft lbs muzzle energy. 380ACP has about 200-300 ft lbs. Empiric rule for self-defense says 220-300 is a minimum for self-defense.

[@theminister1154]

@@freedomspeech9523 I've seen what looked like an excellent study showing that 380 is the smallest cartridge that stops people from doing bad things in one hit reliably. 80%ish I believe. *What surprised me:* none of the other cartridges (pistol) were more than 8 or 9% more effective. Not 10mm, not 45acp, not .357 mag. They kill more often & are much more effective on bears (I hike a lot in bear country, carry a Glock 31 & laudiobooks on my phone speaker) but 380 ends encounters very effectively. 22, 25, and 32 do NOT. Well, in comparison anyway. Shooting someone with 22LR is still a very convincing argument. From where I sit 380 is a great cartridge for a man carrying a smaller pistol & a real winner for women. Not to mention this neat old folks gun.

For sure.32 is My favorite round,rite next to the 357

[@Gieszkanne]

[@Capt_Killingfield]

Sounds like a good idea. Makes me want to get into .380, but.... Owning a Beretta Tip-Up, this pistol doesn't seem to tip the barrel very high. Also, there's no need for a slide stop/release lever. Being a tip-up with extractor, there's no reason to manipulate the slide by hand. That places the tip-up lever on the WRONG side of the pistol, making it more difficult to utilize.

[@InvidiousIgnoramus]

It's such a shame that importation laws would prevent you guys from easily bringing one over in .32 ACP. I'd LOVE a tip up companion to my Beretta 81BB.

[@GayActorMichaelDouglas-zd2fo]

I’m pretty sure 380 and 32 are treated the same as far as the import point system works. I think 32 is just too underappreciated to be worth importing

Not likely in the US. .380 just can’t gain the popularity it has in other countries because we never had the prohibition against military/police calibers. The 9mm is more powerful, not much bigger and is everywhere. It’s a capable enough round, but it just can’t gain traction.

Well you just completely captured the attention of a wheel-gun guy who almost never looks at autos. I definitely loved Girsan's remake of the Browning high power and now this very elegantly and yet tactically designed Walther styled .380. With the tip-up barrel, high(for me anyway) mag capacity, spare round carry the modern textured surface for positive traction and fantastic good looks this one's a serious major innovation in the world of automatic carry pistols! Believe I'll be looking to capture one of these soon.

It is about time that someone copied this Beretta format in .380. They also need to do this in a compact 9mm. Beretta has been doing this with .22Short, 22LR .25ACP, 32ACP and .380 ACP for decades. Although importation of their .380 has been almost non existent, this technology has been out there waiting to be copied. I am surprised this took so long. There have been copies of other guns (like the 1911, etc...) for a long time. I hope this copy proves to be as reliable as its Beretta cousins, If it is I would highly recommend it. 2 thumbs up!

[@JohnPublic-dk7zd]

The Berettas, and Taurus has/had a model also, with tip up barrels tend to do okay in the smaller calibers...these guns are direct blowback, and I'd think in .380, and especially 9mm, the recoil would get a bit snappy...gotta remember every gun is a compromise, and certain features sometimes don't really mesh well with other certain features...we own a .25 with a tip up barrel, couldn't imagine my .45 with a similar feature...

[@stevekundzala676]

@@JohnPublic-dk7zd Yeah! If you can't rack a slide, you'll probably not like the recoil of this gun in 9mm.

@@stevekundzala676 that just stands to reason...I had my .45 out this past week, and I noted the recoil...I also had the mark iv in action, and there is a definite difference...so .380 kinda splits the difference, and our Bersa is much easier to handle than the s&w .380...as for the tip up barrel, it does lend itself to ease of loading, but no one ever gets into another problem for folks with gnarled fingers, how do you easily load the magazine...? 9mm and .380 usually ain't that bad, but you run right back into the recoil issue...don't own a .32, but .25 and .22 get pretty small for bad hands...it's always something...
