The Beretta 93R is an Italian machine pistol that's featured in handful of James Bond media. The pistol is based on the Beretta 92 self-loading pistol, with the "R" stands for "raffica" (Italian for burst or volley).
Unlike the base version, the 93 model is capable of firing three-round bursts. Continuous-fire pistols are difficult to control in unlimited burst mode without a stock. This also applies to the Beretta 93R, which is very light and compact for a fully automatic pistol.
Modifications compared to the base version include a fire selector lever, an extended barrel with a muzzle brake, and an improvised handgrip in front of the trigger guard. The pistol comes with 15- or 20-round magazines, which protrude from the grip and provide additional support. A folding stock can be attached as an option.
History[]
Never Say Never Again[]
During the tunnel chase in the movie thugs by Fatima Blush are armed with Beretta 93Rs when they try to force Bond into a truck. This was also the first screen appearance of the 93R in an English-language film
007 Legends[]
The Beretta 93 is another pistol that appears in 007: Legends under the name "Kunara V". It has a 18 round magazine and fires in 3 round bursts.
GoldenEye 007 (2010) and GoldenEye 007 Reloaded[]
The Beretta 93 also appears in GoldenEye 007 (2010) and GoldenEye 007: Reloaded under the same name, "Kunara V". The Beretta has a 21 bullet clip, though this can be increased to 26 with "high capacity magazine" gadget. It is a trusty sidearm, deadly in close quarters combat with its fully automatic firing mode, though it defaults to a 3 round burst mode that conserves ammo and cuts down on recoil. It is quick to reload, a common trait in these games for handguns.
It is a rare find in the single player and occasionally can be found with a laser sight, and even less frequently, a silencer. It can be equipped with either of these accessories in Reloaded's online play, but handguns can not be equipped with attachments in the GoldenEye (2010) version. In the online of both games, it is the fourth pistol unlocked at rank 31 in GoldenEye 007 (2010) and at rank 38 in GoldenEye 007: Reloaded.
