Revision as of 22:40, 26 June 2009
Curious Question
The Beretta Centurion, is it simply a 92FS with a shortened barrel? Or is there something else I'm missing?
Just a reminder
When you talk about the Beretta 92F or 92FS, it is not spelled "M92F" (as this page is titled), "M92FS", or even "92 FS" with a space in between the "92" and "FS". It's just Beretta 92F or Beretta 92FS, exactly as I have just spelled it. If you see a page with the older (mis)spelling, please do not hesitate to correct it.
And considering that this page has grown to include all of the 92 variants (including the SB, Brigadier, Centurion, etc.), it might be time to rename it. I would recommend re-titling the page "Beretta 92-series pistols". Anyone else agree? MT2008
...
Why not have more info on the 93R? Give it its own page?
I propose the following info 9 (and an image if possible; how do I place/upload images here anyway?)
The Beretta 93R (full name: Beretta Model 93R) is a selective-fire 9mm machine pistol. The "R" stands for "Raffica" which means burst in Italian. It was designed in the 70s and meant for police and military use, offering extra firepower in a small package. It is perfect for concealed carry purposes such as VIP protection, or for close quarters fighting such as room-to-room searches.
A selector switch and the foldable foregrip allows the pistol to fire three round bursts with each pull of the trigger for a potential cyclic rate of 1100 rpm. The designers limited it to three round bursts to allow it to be more easily controlled. The 93R is basically a Beretta 92 series pistol (the Beretta 92FS is designated "M9 Pistol M9" by the US military, and is the standard issue pistol for the US military). But the 93R is single action and outfitted with a muzzle brake, an optional detachable shoulder stock and a 20-round magazine that also allowed for a firmer grip. It is currently out of production.
The gun has been used in several movies:
- Face/Off a 1997 action movie starring John Travolta and Nicolas Cage and directed by John Woo.
- Equilibrium a 2002 action/science fiction film written and directed by Kurt Wimmer with Christian Bale, Taye Diggs, Christian Kahrmann, Emily Watson and Sean Bean.
Title change
I hope no one minds that I changed the page name, "pistol series" matches more of the titles on other pages and is easier to remember than "Series Pistols". Agreed? -GM
Why separate INOX?
I was just wondering if there were any technical differences between the 92FS and the INOX, other than the slide being stainless.
- Good question. Only because there are so many movies featuring the 92F Inox that if we didn't separate it from the regular 92F, we'd have to put notes about "Inox finish" in parentheses near each. Whereas most of the other Berettas with Inox finishes don't appear in nearly as many movies. -MT2008
I hate this pistol
- I wish this gun wasn't used in Die Hard, just because it is unworthy of all the popularity it has gained because of it. This gun is like a supermodel- it's just skating by on its looks but is horrible in reality-S&Wshooter 20:57, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
- But alot of supermodels are hot!-Oliveira 21:32, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
- They're also fucktarded-S&Wshooter 21:55, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
- Jesus Christ Smith. You hate everything. Tell me, what YOU don't hate?-Oliveira 21:57, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
- S&W, Browning, FN, Walther, Mauser and all the shit on my page-S&Wshooter 22:09, 26 June 2009

- I hoped you would say Vests but i'm left dissapointed. But well, at least you like FN FALs.-Oliveira 22:15, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
- Vests?-S&Wshooter 22:22, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

- Well, in Left 4 Dead, there is an character called Francis who is a Biker. And he hates everything. Then another guy comes up to him and asks something like, "Francis, what don't you hate?" and Francis goes, "Well, i don't hate vests.". That's you Smith. You are Francis.

- Um, I'm not sure why you hate the 92F so much, especially since you claim to like Beretta's other pistols. I have quite a bit of experience with the 92F and the Taurus PT92 (which I used to own) and I think it's an excellent pistol.
