The Beretta 93R is a select-fire pistol (semi or three-round burst) developed in the late 1970s by Beretta. Produced between 1979 and 1993 in small quantities, the 93R was primarily intended for Italian counter-terrorism units. To improve controllability during burst fire, the 93R incorporates several distinctive design elements, including a folding metal foregrip attached to the front of the trigger guard, an extended barrel with a muzzle compensator, and an optional detachable folding shoulder stock that is surprisingly complex.
Note the standard mags that come with it are extended, 20rd size rather than the standard Beretta 92 15rd mags that sit flush with the bottom of the pistol grip.Does anyone know what the brass pin in the middle-left side of the box is???
Fun facts:
1) The 93R was the functional basis for Robocop’s film-prop machine pistol. They used a 93R and attached a bunch of futuristic crap to it
2) The “R” in 93R stands for “Raffica”, which is Italian for “volley” or “burst”
