*SOLD* Beretta Model 85BB 9 Short (380ACP) Blue 3.8" *DEPENDABLE SEMI-AUTO PISTOL*
Bryant Ridge's Analysis
These pistols are original Italian made Beretta's that were used by Italian law enforcement agencies. Beretta's medium frame 8X series (models 81 through 87) features an open-top slide similar to the larger 9mm 92 models but utilizes a fixed barrel blowback action due to the lower power calibers employed. The various models are chambered for either .22LR, .32 or .380 Auto. These alloy frame double-action pistols feature an exposed hammer and a frame-mounted ambi safety with no decocking capability. Early variants employ a curved trigger guard, while later variants employ a squared and serrated trigger guard. There are both walnut and plastic grip variants and various capacities depending on caliber and whether a variant employs a single-stack or double-stack magazine. Models produced starting in the early 1990s were presented as the "Cheetah" series, still using the 8x model designation such as the "Model 84 Cheetah".
