Berreta’s open slide 92 and 80 are two of the absolute most beautiful semiauto handguns ever designed IMO.
Italian engineers have always had a sense of style.
My 92 Stainless Steel "Ghost" model is my most beautiful gun.
Not wrong.
70S, and 71 also. I have both, and a 85F.
Exactly. Great looks. Great functionality. Great performance.
Not just for woman. The barrel length optimizes ballistics for this round vs all the pocket 380s
That's just a good looking gun.
The Cheetah 80x is one of the best, if not the best, .380 I’ve ever seen. I want one.
The price is the ugly part. Lol
@@Hidalguense $ quanto vale uma?

I love the cheetah I wish they also make a ‘classic’ version without the rail because those sexy Italian curves are something else! Not complaining though a rail clearly has its use.
I just bought one and i fkn love it. Its my first gun actually.. i shot it at the range just a couple of days ago! My first time shooting actually, super accurate, minimal recoil. Absolutely fantastic gun.
I carry 9mm and 10mm in the woods and 380 for conceal. One thing I really like about shooting 380 is they are simply not as LOUD as the other calibers, not to mention the lower recoil and smaller gun relatively. I look forward to picking up the model 80X and checking it out. Thanks for another excellent video.
Been wanting this one since it was announced. Classy looking and has all the features I’m looking for. I even like the all black version more than the bronze.
Same. Black and bronze is too flashy for me
This may be a hot take, but pistols should be black/gray.
i loved it, i had the older 84 model, 80x will become my next pistol!!
The bronze might be a little too much for some people. Doesn’t lend itself to a “tactical” color scheme, which is what I also prefer regardless of the type of firearm, but it does look pretty nice on the 80X. Would say it looks flashy either.
Just picked mine up, which is ironic because I hate the Beretta design - 1911 kid here but I have to confess I’m loving it.
the old 85s and 84s are classics
Great all around, life time durable pistol.
Glad to see that its back and it's better than before, another smart move from Beretta again..
Thanks for the review sir.
Thanks for watching Brother
I hope the release 30 round sticks
well Beretta does make some of the best semi-auto handguns on the market, with the M9 92/92FS being the most iconic in both duty usage for Military/Law Enforcement, as well as concealed carry. not to mention, their Beretta-1301 shotgun (which I don't have sadly) is getting a good reputation for being equally as good as the Benelli semi-auto shotgun series
Just really overpriced
@@DrQuagmire1 500 years in buisness, first private company in the earth, they must know how to stay in long runs for sure..
These Guns are awesome. My GF picked one up and it’s a pleasure to shoot.
If you’re a fan of the 92’s your love this 80X Cheetah.
I’ve always been a fan of the Beretta Cheetah series. I currently own the 81BB and the 87BB. I’d love to add a .380 to the collection. Very glad to see Beretta bring back the Cheetah.
Never really wanted a .380 till now! This thing is awesome and will be my next purchase!
This will be my first .380, can’t wait.
Pinnacle of innovation over time, with the best features to offer. If you like this Beretta design, then this model just got it what you need. 👍 for Beretta!
I have an 85f and it is fantastic. I love the decocker for safer concealed carry.
we appreciate baretta for providing this gun for the review (because they are and will be sold out every where forever)
I agree, I want to see more guns in other calibers. .380 ACP, .32 ACP, .357 Sig, .40 S&W. We are finally getting more 5.7 and 10 mm options
A bersa Thunder plus comparison is a must!!!
Another stellar presentation! Thank you, again, for all that you do for our community.
First pistol I ever bought to carry when I turned 21 was an 84F... 30 some years ago... Loved that gun! (it had the checkered walnut grips ;) )
The Best companion for the Beretta 92!! Flat shooting caliber and very accurate gun!!thanks for sharing!!
Haven't been able to stop thinking about this since its release earlier this year, such a beautiful gun. Definitely gonna be my new EDC!
Huge fan of the old Cheetah's, have two of them. I think I love this one. Got to get it now! Thanks for the review.
Thanks for stopping by Brother!
Model 81 cheetah is the most pleasant shooting handgun I have ever shot.
Don't waist your money. Not that it's a bad gun!! It's too much money! Beretta jacked up the price of the Bobcat 22LR to 650.00 from 6 months ago!! Now a 22 magnum in this gun would be awesome 👍
@@enricomandragona163 $800ish is not that bad
@@Catgat37 it is if you can buy a Beretta 92 FS compact for 600.00!! Makes no sense price point per caliber for a similar gun in my opinion....the gun should be 600
Those 84's are so accurate...
Wow! That is a beautiful .380 I'm going to get one when they arrive at the stores. Excellent video Sootch00!
Thanks Brother!
What? Thats one of the ugliest ive seen
I love it. It looks awesome!
This is right up my alley. My EDC is a G42, and I plan for it to be the only plastic fantastic I have. I prefer .380 in compacts/subcompacts because it shoots better than 9, less recoil and quicker/more accurate follow-up shots which IMO outweighs any minor ballistic difference. This Beretta would be a nice higher-end piece to compliment the Glock while keeping ammo continuity.
I prefer the .380 to
4" barreled 380 is nothing to sneeze at. My FiL had an AD with a FMJ 380 round. Resulted in several screws, pins, and plates being put in his hip and leg.
The difference isn’t minor, it’s quite a big difference but .380 will still work though
@@bartvanriel6767 With the correct ammo choices it really isn't. It's greatly exaggerated, especially when people claim .380 will not work as a defense round, which you still readily see often.
"Minor difference"??? There is a roughly 40% difference between .380 and 9mm, that is not minor...
I have my EDC 380 - Sig P365. But that Beretta is so beautiful I'm in love and want one. Excellent review.
Most ppl say 380 isn't strong enough, but I don't see any of them willing to take a couple rounds to prove it. Fact is 380 has filled a lot of graves. Beautiful firearm & great video 👍👍
I got my model 84 fix from a $75 dollar tanfoglio gt380 off of gunbroker just recently. Didn't expect much from that handgun given tanfoglio's reputation back in the 80's, but it's all steel and shoots straight and very well. Might of waited a bit for this new beretta, but for $75 It's a great look-a-like for the older 84's
very cool .380, but I think them boys at Beretta where tapping many barrels of primo vino when they came up with the price of this pistola.
Very nice review. I'm a huge fan of the Beretta 81 series. Been shooting them and enjoying them for years. Going to take a look at the 80X once it becomes available near me.
Also, the trick of pushing the barrel on slide reassembly is very much appreciated, THANKS.
Beretta just makes the prettiest guns out there
I think Beretta is wrong to market this as a female shooters gun. Every guy I shoot with wants one of these, including myself. A badass Beretta that’s more edc friendly than a 92x centurion or compact? Sign me up. 380 will get the job done too. This is a beautiful pistol for everyone.
As long its not pink, who cares!
@@Gieszkanne imagine some bad guy getting shot by a pink gun. It's like "dude, you got taken out by a pink gun?!" 😂
Looks like it’s going to be a winner. Especially with the newer 380 ammo now which is very capable for self defense. Hope they will make checkered walnut grips for it. That would look great
Such a great move by Beretta. I love this gun. A blast to shoot and great for carry.
Sootch, as always a good honest and straightforward review! Thanks.
Sootch, I love your reviews. They are thorough, they are concise & to the point. I find that my own reactions are very similar to yours. I trust your reviews, and was anxious to hear your take on this one!
.380 is my preferred round, and has been for a couple decades now. I have had an 84BB, a BDA, an 85F (still have it) , a Bersa Firestorm, Bersa Thunder (still have it), LCP MAX (daily pocket carry) and recently picked up the Security 380. And I will likely pick up an 80X at some point in the future, dont know what I'm gonna trade for it just yet but that bridge aint here yet!
I agree that .380 has the potential for a less recoil option, unfortunately blow back, most commonly used in .380, does NOT lend itself well to lower recoil. A 200 round session with my Bersa or my 85F can be a bit punishing! I'm glad to hear that the recoil spring has been touched to lighten up that recoil. Anxious to see/feel that for myself.
To me, the recoil on the LCP MAX is much lighter that of my Bersa or my 85F. A 200 round session will not leave me nearly as sore as the Bersa or the 85F.
Moving on, the recoil on the Security .380 is virtually non-existant. I liken it to the recoil from a .22 MAG. Its a pleasure to shoot! And the light rack slide is almost too easy to operate compared to my other .380's!
As to the sizing of the 80 series Cheetah's, conceal carry maybe (not for me), I prefer strong side carry, leather with thumb break. I believe it was Chris from Lucky Gunner who coined the phrase "duty size". I like that phrase and I believe that its accurate due to the fact that the vast majority of the 80 series imports have come from police dept's and/or prisons.
Overall, I am excited to hear about this new model, I am likley to get one soon. I believ that the price tag will keep alot of folks away, but for those of us Beretta fans, who also like .380, we are willing to look past that price tag!
I wonder what it would look like with Beretta wooden grips???
Nice looking pistol, appears to run very well also. I'm hardcore 1911, but always keep a few Berettas 92FS,96 Inox, Tomcat.32acp. Simply by design alone they're a stake your life on it pistol. They run period.This 80x your showing me is very intriguing. Thanks for a good demo. A bigger frame means more control and the.380 acp round doesn't phase me , Buffalo Bore markets a nasty 380+P.👍
Great review, thanks again! I always enjoy the bloopers, funny!
Another great video Bro. So balanced, no recoil. Beretta always.
I always wanted a Cheetah and now they make an even fancier one, nice!
Beretta really makes beautiful guns. Would love to try one.
I always can watch your Channel pick up the good tips. Today I was having trouble reassembling my new Beretta 80 x. After watching your video Barrel trick did the job to reassemble thanks so much
I recently purchase one of these and I love it. It wasn't cheap but it is well worth it.
Beautiful gun ! The Ferrari of 380's . 🔥👍
Maserati!! Same emblem!! No horse!
I cannot WAIT to get my hands on one of these little guys! It'll be the only 380 I own, but holy shit is it GORGEOUS!
Great review. Love your outro, and never tire of hearing it.
Beautiful little gun, but I also want to say how much I appreciate your message at the end of all of your videos. God bless America indeed.
A Beretta work of art, I'm going to have to buy one now.
Well done as always. Beautiful! Slick! Though I am not a 380 proponent, this Beretta is very attractive to me for all the reasons you discussed.
I have mine on order, just the black version. I got a surplus Cheetah and fell in love with the size of it, already loving the 92 and not being able to carry it as it's too big. This size is maybe the second best sized gun after the 19. I love the concealability, the grip, and all these upgrades. I was hoping it would be 9mm 12+1, but for most things defense, the 380 will do it.
Great small Beretta 👍.
Sootch00 I like your style you are the man 💯.
Thanks for all Ur reviews Excellent!
Great review ! I definitely plan on getting this. Huge improvements. Terrific double action pull weight, swappable sights, improved grip, better magazines. It will feel so good in my hands having the metal frame.
What kind of night sights do fit on the 80x?
@@lukaszimmermann2215 ... At this time, I won't be caring yet. I know that there won't be a huge number of aftermarket choices. Eventually a night sight or fiber optic will show up.
@@alejandrovargas7592 OK. I thought they use the same sights like on the 92a1 or m9a3.
Very aesthetically pleasing 😍😍
Many thanks for the reassembly trick. I was having a heck of a time because the barrel wasn't fully seated.
I have a Tisas Fatih 13 (licensed clone of the Beretta 84). I prefer the curved backstrap versus the straight backstrap on the 80x. Everything else that is new on the 80x is a definite improvement.
Such a gorgeous pistol! I'm getting one!
That’s all I need…for Beretta to come out with a new 380 Cheetah. Saving my $.
Love Berettas and that 380 looks great. It reminds me of the classic look of pistols from the 80s. I’ll probably have to get one.
I'd like to get my hands on one of these. I've got an 84bb and it's fantastic. Although I do miss not having a decocker on it like my 92fs has. Glad to see that Beretta incorporated that into the 80x. Also I hope to see .380 ammo come down in price a little bit.
AHHHHHHHHHHH Beretta has had decockers in all its 80 series F and FS models for the last 30 years this is nothing new
@@ogc90 Alrighty. I don't recall saying they didn't. I said that it is a feature that I wish I had on my 84bb.
That is A really handsome gun..need one of those and thanks for the review !
Thanks Phillip!
Been watching for an 84 Cheetah used, but the prices on those are coming up to the point I think I will now go pick up an 80X. Great review. Thanks.
Just wanted to let you know that you have the best review of this pistol on RUclips. Because of that you convinced me to buy it today. Unfortunately I won't be able to shoot it for a couple of days. However I feel you did such a great presentation I don't expect any surprises. I went down to the .380 from my 1911 because of grip issues and rheumatoid arthritis. Plus I have had my hand broken a couple of times. I tried some of the plastic .380's did not like them at all. Also not a fan of striker fired pistols. Hence the Beretta. Once I held it and got the feel of it. It fit me like a glove. So thanks to you for the video and the heads up on the Lulu loader. Thats the only down side to this pistol it is almost impossible for me to load the mag without a loader. Keep up the great work, I always catch your videos.
Thank you for your excellent review!!! i have a few Berettas, and they are my favorites. I have two Model 84F pistols. They are beautiful and are a dream to shoot, even with self defense bullets. I think that this updated version looks beautiful as well, and has some advantages for self-defense. I am adding it to my wish list!
Love the frame mounted safety.
That would be a good size 9mm.
Well.....I get your point, but it IS a 9mm. Just not 9mm Parabellum/Luger! it is a 9mm Corto/9mm Kurz in Europe. We call it .380 ACP here. I shoot lots of S & B 9mmK through my Beretta 84F pistols. 😊😊
@@danielbeck9191 9mm short lol
@@camouflagepeacock6414 2mm 9x19 vs 9x17
Dayum there is just something special about the beretta love the sound!
Thank you Sootch reassembling the cheetah gave me problems- you made it look easy
I love all things Beretta. I have an original "84" B pre-Cheetah naming,.. well a Cheetah. True Blued pistol 13 + 1 capacity. I absolutely love it ! To me carrying a .380, the more barrel the better for ballistics & accuracy. I'm an old fart now & have been a concealed carry holder for over 25 yrs & I carried one illegally before that. I still find I have no need for any lights or gadgets on a carry piece, they just make the firearm harder to conceal & basically useless 50% of the time,... carry a flashlight in your pocket, eazy peazy. This is an absolutely gorgeous pistol & the upgrades are great, Beretta is boss. But I'll still be carrying my old "84" B. it's sooo much better looking. When you're on a fixed income you'll find u just can't get every new gizmo when the same older pistol you have works perfectly every time. But I do love the take down on this pistol.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🔫🔥🔥
Good recoil, good size, good capacity, AND sexy as hell like the 92....
This gun is HOT.
Love your reviews Sootch, (very informative), wife just bought one with the fancy box :). Thanks again.
Great gun and great review! Thank you very much from Italy!
Beretta Is the OLdest Gun Maker in the WORLD, ITALiANS are Designer and Artist ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
As someone who has developed arthritis in both hands, I'm considering this Beretta - along with the Ruger Security 380 - for my next purchase. This all-metal 80X looks a lot more appealing than the Ruger, but, of course, it's more expensive (we don't know the "street price" yet).
He mentioned it in the video plus it's on Beretta's web site
Excellent video; i am now very nostalgic for my Beretta 92F that i used to shoot at Kensington rifle and pistol club, here in the U.K. As all the other ranges, it closed in 1997.
I ordered an imported police issued model 81 in .32 acp, 12 round magazine, I believe it is a BB model. My girlfriend and her daughter loved it so much, they both ordered one. We love these little pistols, but the caliber is lacking for self defense and I am sure that there will never be any development of decent ammo in this caliber. All three of us have numerous handguns in more capable calibers, but the little Beretta is so much fun to shoot! We may all upgrade to the 80x and actually use them as carry guns. Thank you for this review!
AmaIng weapon.... amazing review....
You haven't even had time to watch it yet, liar.
Thanks Brother!
@@sootch00 Pleasure... I definitely check your review before making any decision to purchase a new weapon.... Bravo!!
This is very interesting pistol. With that said, I think a PX4 compact in 380 would have been better.
Thank you for this great review. Gotta have this one !
41,000 views in only 13 hours. Nice going Sootch!!
The grip of my 92x RDO Compact is shorter but the mag holds 15 and in 9mm, I do like the decocker on the frame though... I'd love a comparison video. 👍👍
Thanks Steven! Good idea and that may be coming up.
On Handgun Hero the grips appear the same size at the back to me. The 92X though is noticeably taller hence more capacity. I'm guessing we'll see a 15 from Mec-Gar if this gun becomes popular.
I can see the argument for the safety on the frame, but I prefer the decocker out of the way when I'm unholstering or firing. Almost everyone who has spoken against slide mounted decockers on RUclips lives in the country and has a near zero chance of encountering a self-defense situation. One wonders how many times one will need to rack the slide agressively defending oneself.
When are they going to be available in USA? Been waiting since Shot Show. Nice review!
Thanks Rob! They should be shipping out now.
Higher viewer numbers Guntooberz are given/lent these guns by the industry well before they are released with a date they all agree to publish the reviews after as part of the deal. A bunch of reviews tend to release all at once from multiple reviewers. Usually when you see a couple different reviews show up on RUclips at the same time that means the release has just happened or is very soon..
TLDR it is very soon or already available today.
@@sootch00 Great! Really enjoy your reviews. Keep up the good vids.
Thanks Rob! I appreciate it Brother
After NRA show
Always dig these reviews.. thanx
Thanks for sharing the video, great as always. Incredible review, learned a lot! God bless!🙏🏻☘️
Gonna need a threaded barrel! I bet it suppresses nicely
They actually don't. They do in .32 though!
While I do want one of these, the 92X Compact is a much better buy for the price and is 9mm while being basically the same size.
Great review as always! I’ve been subscribed and following you for years now and as one of the James Bond theme songs said (which can be applied to your channel)- “Nobody does it better“ 😄
Beretta baby been around forever!!!
Baretta drooped the ball they should have made it in 32 as well. 😢 a 32 with 16 rounds and optics ready would have been pretty sweet!
On the old versions you could change the caliber just by switching the barrel. Maybe they will offer conversion barrels.
@Gieszkanne that would be awesome! I'm sure an aftermarket company will do it eventually but we still need the mags for the 32.
@@jonathandavis7810 The 380 mags work also. You will just have to tighten the feed lips.
Nice gun man, Beretta always do excellent pistols, the 92FS is the proof about it, keep strong man, we are living bad times in the entire world. I wish i could keep my faith, but it's very hard, i believe that God exists, but i have some doubts if he is so powerful.
Thanks Joao! It's a sweet shooting pistol.
Questioning God is an important part of faith. Just remember that all the chaos that's going on was foretold in scripture. May your journey seeking truth be blessed.

Not only that but Rule #2: Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy.
Great idea to mount a flashlight coaxially to the barrel so you can muzzle everything as you search in the dark for a target and only then identify it....
