About Browning BDA

The Browning BDA was released to the market in 1980. It’s a semi-automatic pistol chambered in .380 ACP. The BDA was produced in Italy under contract from the FN Herstal from Belgium. In Europe was the model marketed as FN model 140DA and in the US as an model Browning BDA 380.

The model was adopted by Belgian police. It’s a semi automatic, blowback operated, double action pistol. The pistol has steel slide and aluminium alloy frame. Its ambidextrous slide mounted safety switch disconnects the hammer from the trigger. The Browning BDA is fitted with a slide catch which holds the slide open after depleting the magazine. By pressing the slide release lever, the slide can be simply released. The lever is placed on the left side of the frame. The model is aimed using fixed iron sights with contrasting dots. As an alternative, tritium-illuminated meprolight night sights can be fitted. The Browning BDA is talked about as a copy of the Beretta 84, however the difference of these guns is in the safety mechanism.
