- — Description.
The B23R is a three-round burst handgun that appears in Call of Duty: Black Ops II.
Multiplayer
The B23R is third in the Pistols category, and is unlocked at level 19. It's a 3-round burst pistol with a high rate of fire and moderate recoil. It will kill in 3 shots in close range and up to 6 at a distance. A favorite of snipers and shotgunners, the B23R's close-range capabilities, fast ADS and high damage make for a deadly secondary that can compete with SMGs, but loses it's luster at longer ranges.

Zombies
The B23R makes an appearance in Nuketown Zombies in one of the houses and in TranZit it is found on the ceiling of the bus for 1000 points. It retains its 15 round magazine capacity, with 105 in reserve (40 shots all in all). It is fairly powerful, particularly on lower rounds. It will run out of ammo very quickly much past round 10, making constant ammo stops a necessity. However, it remains powerful until around round 20+, and is especially effective at the torso - head. Because of its power for a good price this gun is very useful if a player joins in the middle of a game as they can buy it immediately and still be able to do some damage if box access is not available. When Pack-a-Punched it becomes the B34R. It will become fully-automatic with 20 rounds per magazine and 180 rounds in reserve. It can be Pack-a-Punched multiple times like other weapons and can attain a Fast Mag attachment.
