Does anyone know how?I know of 2 ways and was wondring if there were any more.The first is to have a set of parts for the beretta 93r and machine them to fit the 92 frame.The second is to make an auto sear.I know how to do the auto sear,but i dont have a pic to describe it.

The Beretta 92 is a fine pistol as it is, nor would it be controllable in full auto.

Why convert it? Wouldn't your time be better spent on some other project?

The only benefit of a full auto handgun is it gives you practice reloading. While I am sure it would be fun to have a full auto handgun, I think it is a waste of a good quality gun. If I wanted a full auto handgun for fun I would buy a cheap knock off gun, not waste a perfectly good one.

I'm with the others. Even full-auto rifles are difficult to control and aren't of much use beyond about 25m, when semi is better (unless you have a belt-fed weapon, with support like a bipod). Full-auto handguns in respectable calibers are almost never controllable. You'll get more hits in less time with rapid semi-auto. Also, the very high rate of fire on most machine pistols will cause the mag to be emptied in a small fraction of a second -- brraaappp! That makes "tactical reloads" (reloading with a round still in the chamber in case you need it) almost impossible.

If you feel you must convert a handgun to full-auto, you should at least add an improvised stock to the weapon. It shouldn't be too difficult to make and might look something like the stock for the Russian Stechkin APS machine pistol:
