The Raffica, or 'Rathica', as some players pronounce it, fits under the 'Machine Pistols' category of the in-game sidearms. In the feed in the upper right of the screen, M93 kills are reported as 'M9-3', which is a valid name for the pistol.Ĭall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 M93 Raffica in Modern Warfare 2 The M93 Raffica in Modern Warfare 2 is unlocked at Rank 38, and is also a sidearm. It also has a relatively large model, and for this reason it can confuse newer players into believing it is a Desert Eagle. When a Raffica is used, it appears the same as the M9 pistol in-game, except with a shiny silver finish, as opposed to the matte black of the M9. Like its fellow burst weapons, the M16A2, and the AN-94 Akaban, it is possible to fire the Raffica like it was fully automatic through pulling the trigger rapidly. In other words, this weapon is risky to use around multiple targets, as you may find yourself running dry before the second enemy is down. While the M93 holds the potential to kill with a single burst at close range, it is more common to require twelve or more rounds from the magazine.

During different on line updates, the Raffica has received patches to increase its damage and accuracy, due to the fact it is one of the least commonly encountered weapons online. In online multiplayer, the M93 Raffica is portrayed as having low power, an extremely high rate of fire, and poor accuracy. For the most part, this will be the first experience with the weapon, as it does not appear during the campaign. Game Appearances Battlefield: Bad Company 2 M93R Burst in Bad Company 2 The M93 Raffica in Bad Company 2, or ' M93R Burst', as it is called in-game, is unlocked upon reaching Rank 13 in online multiplayer. One recurring feature of the Raffica is the three round burst and high rate of fire. Different games portray the M93 in different ways, such as some games showing it as a powerful weapon, while others do not. Some Rafficas have their stock attached and some do not. In order to reduce recoil, this stock was also offered by the company.

The 'three round burst' design was implemented by Beretta to reduce ammunition consumption, as well as allowing the shooter to be more accurate. Some M93s have a stock, which was an option from Beretta themselves. The Raffica was first designed and produced in the 1970's, and production has been halted since the 1990s. While the Raffica still sees occasional use, they are only supported by several militaries, which is unusual considering the fact the M93 was designed to appeal to a military market. The word 'Raffica' translates from Italian to 'burst' or 'gust', which suggests a lot about the M93 Raffica. However, unlike most modified weapons, the M93 Raffica is actually made by the same company - Beretta. OverviewThe M93 Raffica is a modified version of the Beretta 92 pistol.
