The Beretta M9, designated by Italy and the U.S. Military, and is also known as the  in-game, is a semi-automatic Pistol in Surviv.io that uses the 9mm Ammo.



Summary
The M9 is one of the weakest weapons in the game, sporting only 12 damage and a magazine size of 15. It is only viable early game and is still only slightly more effective when dual-wielded. However, if you can click really fast the M9 can be surprisingly powerful. The dual version M9 has more spread with less accurate distance.

Strategies

 * The M9 is only useful at gaining a slight advantage over unarmored players in the early stages of the game.
 * The dual M9 is a good quick-damage spray gun unless you have a G18C, MAC-10, Vector, or any other spray weapons
 * Unless very experienced, players should not stick to this gun all game, ditch it when you see your first SMG, shotgun, or assault rifle.
 * Since the dual Pistols update, the dual M9 can do slightly more damage if fired quickly. It is still recommended to drop them for essentially any other gun most of the time.
 * Using the M9 effectively depends on the user being able to click very quickly. Even then, a single M9 has just 100 DPS and has poor accuracy.
 * A M9 and dual M9 are mostly used in close combat when most of the bullets hit enemy players.
 * If you play on mobile, dual M9s can be a very powerful spray and pray gun, due to the increased fire rate.

Countering

 * Since the M9 is one of the weakest weapons in the game, it is easy to counter them. Any weapon can counter it, so don't be afraid to get into fights with an M9 user, unless they play on mobile.
 * When coming up against a dual M9 you should be a bit warier. Because of the low accuracy, mid-range is good enough if you're worried about getting killed.
 * The most dangerous Players with the M9 are the mobile players. They have automatic power on semi-auto guns, meaning that the M9 can be lethal early game when there is little armor. Because of the high fire rate, they will run out of magazine quickly, so stay behind cover since if they will try to flush you out, they will run out of magazine first. Considering this, it is best to charge up to an M9 Player early game and destroy them with your fists, you will most likely survive.

Pros

 * High fire rate
 * Can be Dual wielded since it's a Pistol
 * 2nd fastest reload time, only behind the P30L
 * Good when dual-wielded on mobile
 * Relatively accurate at close range
 * Decent damage
 * Can hit melee weapon users at point-blank range due to its small size

Cons

 * Low DPS
 * Low magazine
 * Low accuracy
 * Must be spam clicked
 * Lots of accuracy loss and damage falloff at long range

Rarity
The M9 is the most common Weapon in the game, It spawns almost anywhere and sometimes even in rare Crates such as the Hatchet Case.

Controversy
Mobile Players can fire semi-auto guns as fast as they can possibly shoot. Two M9s have a DPS of 150, which is higher than that of the M416. This has caused much controversy because PC players are getting beaten by mobile dual M9s because of the maxed mobile fire rate. Mobile players can hold down the fire button to make any weapon literally full auto.

Trivia

 * The M9 is so underpowered and weak that it is often joked about and occasionally used as a means of handicapping a Player in order to create a more challenging experience.
 * The M9 is the most common weapon you can find.
 * The icon for the M9 does not have an ejection port on its visible side. It could be a left-handed model if any exist, but this is debunked by the fact that the icon for dual M9s does not have any ejection ports. Unless, of course, the player is using right-handed and left-handed models, both with the ejection ports on the non-visible sides.
 * The updated version of the M9 includes a more detailed hammer, the floor plate of the magazine, and iron sights, whereas the original sprite did not include any of the listed parts.
 * The M9 can be ironically found in Air Drops and the Eye Bunker, and also along with many rare loot tiers.

Beretta 92

 * M9 is the designation by the U.S Army of the Beretta 92.
 * The M9 pistol is the current standard-issue sidearm in the U.S. Army, although it is slowly being replaced by other handguns.
 * Beretta was a Series of Pistols designed in Italy combining the best features of the most popular pistols of the time like The 1911s and Walthers.
