Beretta 80X Cheetah Tactical Bronze 380

The Beretta 80X Cheetah Tactical Bronze 380 is a purpose-built defensive handgun that brings modern ergonomics and enhanced controllability to the classic Cheetah platform. Chambered in .380 ACP, this pistol is engineered for shooters who demand a lightweight, reliable option for personal protection and range use. The Tactical Bronze finish provides a subdued aesthetic while resisting corrosion, making it a practical choice for everyday carry. As a California-legal option, this model offers a compelling balance of size, capacity, and shootability in a state-compliant package.

Overview

Beretta has refined the Cheetah lineage with the 80X series, and the Tactical Bronze variant stands out for its combat-ready features. The Beretta 80X Cheetah Tactical Bronze 380 features an aluminum alloy frame and an open-slide design that reduces overall weight while maintaining durability. Its .380 ACP chambering offers manageable recoil, making it an excellent choice for shooters seeking a step up from subcompact .22 or .25 caliber pistols. The Tactical Bronze finish is applied to both the slide and frame, ensuring a consistent, low-glare appearance that resists holster wear.

Features & Specs

The Beretta 80X Cheetah Tactical Bronze 380 integrates several upgrades over previous Cheetah models. These enhancements are focused on improving grip ergonomics, sight acquisition, and overall handling. The following features are standard on this model.

• Open Slide Design: A lightweight, skeletonized slide reduces reciprocating mass and aids in faster cycle times, while the open top minimizes debris accumulation.
• Vertec-Style Grip Frame: A straight backstrap and reduced grip circumference improve hand fit and allow for a more natural point of aim, particularly for shooters with smaller hands.
• Dovetail Front and Rear Sights: Steel, three-dot combat sights are fully adjustable for windage and elevation, with a low profile that prevents snagging during draw.

Additional specifications include a 3.8-inch barrel, an overall length of 6.8 inches, and an unloaded weight of approximately 23 ounces. The magazine capacity is 13 rounds, compliant with California magazine restrictions. The trigger system is a single-action/double-action design with a manual thumb safety and a firing pin block.

Who It’s For

The Beretta 80X Cheetah Tactical Bronze 380 is designed for California residents seeking a carry-sized pistol that does not compromise on shootability. It suits experienced shooters who appreciate a metal-framed handgun as well as those transitioning from a smaller caliber.
