Beretta M9A3 (FDE) Co2 GBB | FREE Delivery over €50 (ROI)

Beretta just ooze cool - what else would you expect from the Italians? With a rich history in firearms manufacturing, they are perhaps best known for their M9 pistol, seen in film and TV, as well as video games, for decades. It has seen active service in Military and Law Enforcement agencies the world over, for its excellent reliability, and performance. Of course, Beretta do a lot more than the M9 - they have the PMX SMG, PX4 series, 90 & 92 series, as well as rifles and shotguns designed for hunting, target shooting, and much more. They are a seminal manufacturer and designer, and all of their products are instantly recognisable.

Pistols are generally used as a sidearm, or back up for your primary, however that doesn't mean that's all they can be used for. If action movies have taught us anything, it's that with a pistol, you're unstoppable! Smaller, more compact, and easier to use, pistols are a lot of fun, whether you're gaming every weekend, shooting targets out your back garden, or just like adding another awesome piece to your collection.

Blowback can be a confusing term - in effect, it means simulated recoil. In other words, it is more realistic, and as a result more fun! Airsoft guns will never achieve the same level of recoil as the real steel counterparts, however it will still put a smile on your face every time you pull the trigger. Due to the nature of the blowback systems, there are more parts, requiring a higher degree of maintenance to keep everything in tip-top shape, but the benefit is a more realsitic experience, and greater satisfaction with every shot!

This replica is powered by Co2 - these are small disposable self-contained cannisters, offering higher pressure for year-round performance. Unlike with green gas, where you will have to cycle through the different pressures depending on the weather, Co2 is designed to operate in virtually all conditions.

Each cannister holds plenty of Co2, and once inserted it cannot be removed until it is empty (otherwise you have a highly pressurised cannister with a hole in the top - not something you want flying around). For blowback pistols, each cannister will last approximately 50 shots, whereas with non-blowback pistols, it's closer to 100 shots (or in other words, long enough that you won't be bothered counting).

Due to the high pressure of Co2, it is not recommended to store your pistol/magazine with a fresh Co2, as the seals are subject to the full force the Co2 cannister has to offer. Similarly, you don't want to store them with nothing in it either, as the seals can recede. A general rule of thumb is if you have fired a full magazine worth of BB's through it, you should be safe to store it with the Co2 present.

Inserting the Co2 is simple - loosen the bottom screw, slot the cannister into position, and tighten the screw back up until the Co2 is pierced. You will hear a hiss, and then it will stop as you continue to tighten. Remember not to overtighten it, as you can deform the seals.

Beretta make stunning guns - the M9 is a thing of beauty, and instantly recognisable. It has seen many iterations and revisions over its life, and the Mod. M9A3 has some subtle differences to set it apart from its ancestor (the M92).

You have a different style of tactical rail, unlike the M9A1, which stands out a little more, without being obnoxious. The barrel extends a little further (due to the integrated threaded barrel), and the grip has a non-slip texture (along with a redesigned shape), making it more comfortable, and giving a slight tactical advantage. In other words, you can run a silencer or tracer unit out of the box, giving more tactical capability to this edition!

Manufactured by KWC under exclusive license for Umarex, this pistol receives Beretta's seal of approval, garnered with authentic trademarks on the slide, frame, and grip. This version is the FDE mode, with superb finish!

Powered by Co2, this pistol has impressive recoil, and great cold weather performance. The magazine holds 22 BB's, and we recommend using a speed loader to load (sold separately)
