Beretta Introduces the 80X Cheetah Tactical Bronze: Precision, Control and Elevated Style in Modern .380 Platform

Beretta announces the launch of the 80X Cheetah Tactical Bronze, the latest evolution of its iconic .380 platform reengineered for today's shooter with enhanced performance, modern features, and a distinctive new finish.

Designed for defensive use and range versatility, the Tactical Bronze model features a factory-installed single-port compensator and threaded barrel to reduce recoil and muzzle rise. An optics-ready slide allows for seamless red dot integration, while the Xtreme-S double/single-action trigger delivers a crisp pull and short reset for increased accuracy. Built on a Vertec-style frame with LOK G10 grip panels, the 80X Cheetah Tactical Bronze offers enhanced ergonomics and control in a compact profile. Additional features include a fiber optic front sight, serrated rear sight, and a Picatinny rail for accessory mounting and ships with three 15-round extended magazines.

"The 80X Cheetah Tactical Bronze was built to give shooters more control, speed, and confidence in a compact platform," said Logan Killam, Beretta's Sr. Product Manager. "From the factory-installed compensator to the optics-ready slide, every detail is engineered to enhance performance without compromising the heritage of the Cheetah platform."

Key features:

The 80X Cheetah Tactical Bronze will be available through authorized Beretta dealers at an MSRP of $1,049. Available in a striking bronze finish, the 80x Cheetah Tactical Launch Edition blends style with functionality, embodying Beretta's commitment to excellence and style in every detail.
