- "Skorpion and M93R are like siblings. If the first is weak, the second is stronger, and if the first can go fully automatic, the second can't. It's mixed with advantages and disadvantages, that's why I like it."
- ―Seron
Summary
The M93R, commonly known as the Beretta 93R, is alright for dealing with small groups of zombies. High damage and low ammo, the M93R is a trustworthy primary for beginners.
Background Story
This weapon was released by L-Brain Sidework along with the other starter weapons. At first, it was heavily anticipated due to its burst fire, but it was found to have bad accuracy and low damage. The majority of the population shunned it, but there were still people out there who bought it for the novelty. Many people who keep this gun today have told that they like to use it for fun sometimes. To truly devote themselves to the experience of using the M93R, they avoid bringing in heavier weapons to resist temptations to switch.
Tips
- It's not a secondary, so don't buy it if the only reason you were going to was to replace your old secondary.
- The fast firing speed of the burst helps to get some shots in before your target reacts.
- You can do a maximum of 258 damage to an enemy if you manage to land the whole burst as headshots.
- This gun only has 4 bursts in each mag, so use your ammo wisely.
- Crouching and ADS'ing helps. This weapon loses accuracy quickly while firing.
- It's not recommended to use this against Tickers, Elementals, Diggers, Stalkers or a Brute.
- This weapon is best used on tripped zombies or survivors on gamemodes such as Team Deathmatch.
- This weapon is also very effective on killing zombies in Vs. Environment. Just be careful of hoards amounting in Single Player.
- The M93R, due to its short range, isn't good for anything past it.
