I just heard of this Beretta for the first time - Beretta 93R 'Raffica'
So I just crawled out from under my rock to discover this Beretta ~ the Beretta 93R 'Raffica'. Very interesting and very cool:

I remember the Beretta ads in the old Soldier Of Fortune magazines when I was a kid. They always had 93R in them. I also think I saw one on Gunbroker once. John Travota’s character in Broken Arrow used one. I always thought they were cool. Now I can see it is actually functional. Sweet.
Thanks for the video!!

That gun popped up in my YouTube algorithm today for whatever reason. Cool gun.
...or "That FUCKIN' GUN!!!" from RoboCop. Gussied up with a barrel twice as long and slide extension to cover it.

This gun also appeared in Natural Born Killers.
The POV cafe massacre was looking down the sights of one. I always wondered what the wierd thing poking out of the dust cover was (the SMG grip folds up).
Damn cool looking.

Inneresting. I always thought the 93R was continuous FA, but now I find out it's actually a burst-beast. And surprisingly accurate.
Pretty common in video games, though many times as a full auto.

Also one of the preferred side arms of Mack Bolan, for those of us that read the Stony Man series.
Early gun-porn novels, sold in paperback from Golden Eagle back in the day.
He always had either the 93R or a 44 Automag (another interesting and very real gun). And in the really cool stories he had both.

I would love to know what led the Dallas police to request such a weapon.
Very cool video. Thanks for posting.

Knew about the gun, but never bothered to dig further to find out what the "R" stands for. Now I know. "Raffica" just sounds cool.

I never was a fan of the 92 series Beretta's. Those guns were always just "meh" imo. But this one!!!! I've always had a blast ripping away a magazine or two with full auto. It does get a lil hot toward the business end after Mag #2.
