M92 Pistol

The M92 is the perfect early game roaming weapon or farming weapon. Its rapid rate of fire in the right hands can quickly deal with a bear or naked trying to mash you for your sulfur. Although others suggest only tap firing, as a target gets closer, you should feel more comfortable rapid firing. Think of it like sonar, the further they are, the less you shoot. the closer they are, the more you can fire accurately making it rival even shotguns

Used to be one the best weapons in the game in terms of DPS due to the unlimited fire rate cap being able to melt full metals at 700-950 bpm accurately, but in 2021/Present day Rust, its a shell of its former self with the same fire rate cap as the p2 at 400 bpm along with progressively worse aim cone if you spray at max fire rate, still a somewhat viable gun but not close to what it used to be and you wouldn't take this over an Mp5 or tommy due to mag size unless you can hit multiple headshots which do a sizeable amount more damage than smgs.

The shooting performance of this gun (e.g controllable recoil, solid feel and accuracy, spammability) often makes players feel so comfortable in tapping it at a high speed, that most bullets in its relatively large magazine won't hit the target at all.
Shooting carefully (not disregarding the chances of an individual bullet) is most rewarding, and it doesn't take an exceptionally skilled shooter. This gun can only underperform in combat, because the shooter gets overconfident using it. The resulting sprays also result in excessive ammo wasting.
Note: it's very intimidating to be shot at, and surpressed by, an M92 pistol, which is also called the M9 - and especially when sprayed. For the M92, with most operators, we gotta empathasize on: "getting shot at", rather than "getting shot by" :)
