I am figuring this is the standard pistol that Egyptian Military uses-replacing the single stack Helwan and the Beretta 51?It has the mag relase button near the heel of the frame just above the lanyard loop.It takes regular Beretta 92 mags but came with a Politically correct 10 shot Megar magazine,figuring It had to be that way when it was imported.Import marked on frame Intrac,Knox,TN.Anyone have any info on this pistol-when and how many imported? currend use by Egypt?
wow. Never seen one of those.....When were they imported? Fairly decent looking copy of the 92. Have you shot it yet? Curious too how many were imported, how many might still be imported......
hello Betonfahrer. I've never seen one of these! I know that one of the African countries (S. Africa/Rhodesia) produced a clone of the 92F that was called the Z88 (Ithink). I didn't know about them in Egypt though. I thought I read somwhere that Egypt was using the Glock 17. It is definately interesting though, thanks for sharing!
Mark,that Tariq is a great find! I had the military Helwan and the early 1951-Navy arms import so I know they came out of Egypt.I have shot this and it works fine,no jams,I am not the best pistol shot but I can hit a milk jug at 20 feet 8 out of 10 times with this.Other days I am not that good.
Beton... you have a 920!!! I posted about this pistol on the boards and received no concrete response - am happy to see your post.
These were imported in insanely small quantities in the late 90s and marketed mainly through SOG if I remember correctly, selling for around $250. Yours is the first in-hand specimen I've seen.
I don't figure there's much demand for it due to its curiosity and the fact that it's a 92 clone, but I find it fascinating.
you're not the only one. When did the egyptians start producing these? I would love to have one. I am also curious about he quality on them? Decent, better then the helwan 951's?
The one i have is like the one you have.Same markings.As Intrac has closed i will have trouble getting the when and how many question but will try.
