Description

Beretta Model 93R is a selective-fire pistol with a selector switch allowing automatic fire at about 1100 rounds per minute in three-round bursts for each pressure of the trigger. There is a fold-down grip in front of the trigger-guard and an extendible steel shoulder stock which can be attached to the rear of the butt. The basic design is that of the Model 92 (Beretta M92), but with an exended barrel with a muzzle brake. The alternate 20-round magazine extends some distance below the bottom of the butt when fitted.
