About the Benelli MP90

The Benelli MP90 (MP 90S World Cup) is an Italian semi-automatic target pistol chambered in .22 Long Rifle, designed by Benelli Armi for the ISSF 25 metre pistol and 25 metre rapid fire pistol competition events. It uses a fixed-barrel inertial blowback action with a fully adjustable single-action trigger, square-section adjustable target sights, and an anatomically shaped competition grip. Prized for its low bore axis and crisp trigger, it has been used at the highest levels of Olympic-style sport shooting.

The MP90S World Cup became a fixture of Olympic and ISSF 25 metre rapid fire pistol shooting, designed expressly to deliver fast, repeatable shots on the turning targets of the discipline.
