Beretta Full Auto Pistol?

Post by AEA »

Watched "Broken Arrow" for the umpteenth time the other night and noticed a Beretta style pistol that Travolta had with a fold down lever attached to the front of the trigger guard along with an extended magazine.

He used this fold down lever as a front hold/stabilization when shooting it in full auto.

Is there really such a Beretta or is it just a movie prop?

Yep, that was it.....only Travolta's did not have the extended flash hider and it fired full auto (not burst). Typical movie madness!

Thanks guys! :tiphat:
