#Light Weapons Science ##Light Weapons Enthusiasts #What pistols are not imitated in Turkey? This time, Turkey imitated Beretta's "cheetah", called Tisas Fatih B380, a .380 caliber compact pistol with a capacity of 13+1 rounds with a double-row magazine, and the launch time was just right - Beretta is currently importing to the US market by SDS after 2 years of closing its "cheetah" production line. It is said that the quality of the gun's processing quality and actual firing effect are very good, and the response is quite good (picture 1). The imitation object chosen by the Turkish manufacturer is the Beretta "Cheetah", which represents the highest level of the all-metal compact hammer hammer pistol of the 1970s and 1980s, which is small and light due to the use of open sleeves and aluminum alloy materials, with a caliber of .32 and .380. At present, the common "cheetah" in the US market is mostly the old guns eliminated by the Italian police, many of which have been used for more than 25-30 years, in poor condition, and the price is 300-400 US dollars, while the newly produced "cheetah" around 2017 can be sold for 1000 US dollars or more (Figures 2 and 3).
