Overview
The Beretta 80X Cheetah Tactical Bronze 380 is a direct upgrade from its predecessors, incorporating a redesigned frame with an enhanced grip texture and an improved trigger system.

The 80X Cheetah Tactical Bronze 380 is built for those who prioritize control and accuracy in a manageable caliber.
Features & Specs
Every component of the Beretta 80X Cheetah Tactical Bronze 380 has been evaluated for practical performance. The following specifications highlight its key attributes:
- Caliber: .380 ACP. The 80X Cheetah Tactical Bronze 380 offers reduced recoil compared to larger calibers, allowing for faster follow-up shots and better shot placement.
- Frame & Finish: Aluminum alloy frame with an ergonomic Vertec-style grip profile. The Tactical Bronze Cerakote finish provides corrosion resistance and reduces glare.
- Sights & Rail: Dovetail front and rear sights with white dot inserts. An integrated Picatinny rail beneath the barrel accepts standard lights and lasers.

The Beretta 80X Cheetah Tactical Bronze 380 ships with two 13-round magazines, offering substantial capacity for its class.

Who It Is For
This pistol is specifically geared toward the experienced shooter who appreciates the handling dynamics of a metal-framed handgun. The Beretta 80X Cheetah Tactical Bronze 380 is an excellent choice for those who train regularly and want a firearm that balances shootability with concealability. It is also well-suited for shooters with smaller hands who find double-stack 9mm pistols too bulky, as the Vertec grip reduces trigger reach without sacrificing control. Law enforcement professionals and armed citizens seeking a reliable backup or off-duty weapon will find the 80X Cheetah Tactical Bronze 380 a capable tool. It is not recommended for absolute beginners due to its manual safety and slide operation, but for anyone already familiar with semi-automatic pistols, it delivers a refined shooting experience.
