Description: A powerful 9mm handgun.

This is the most powerful handgun that Leon will get in the game.  With power 
comes a loss of aiming however as the aiming is shaky when Leon aims.  A stock 
can be purchased to remedy that however.  The exclusive upgrade makes this gun 
take off 6.5 damage.  6.5 damage per shot for a handgun goes a long way once 
Leon reaches the island!

Description: This 9mm handgun will blast a hole through two enemies!

This weapon is given to Leon from the merchant for shooting all the blue 
medallions at the farm and in the churchyard.  Shoot all the medallions to get 
an extra firepower upgrade along with it.  It's the weakest handgun that Leon 
will have access to.  The main kicker with this handgun is that it can shoot 
through enemy shields as well as multiple (2) enemies in a group.  The 
exclusive upgrade allows it to shoot through up to 5 enemies, basically a whole 
crowd.

Description: A 9mm handgun with superior handling.

This handgun is the most powerful handgun until the Red9 receives its exclusive 
upgrade.  It has a decent firing speed, reload animation, and capacity so it's 
really just as good as the Red9.  The exclusive upgrade allows it take off 4.5 
damage compared to the Red9's 6.5 damage, but the Blacktail can hold up to 35 
bullets compared to the Red9's 22, so which do you value most, capacity or 
damage?

Description: A very powerful .45 magnum revolver.  This will make anyone's day.

This is the first magnum weapon that Leon receives and it really is the best if 
you upgrade it fully.  The Broken Butterfly has a very slow reload animation at 
first but it can be upgraded to take less time later in the game.  That reload 
animation is very satisfying mind you.  The Broken Butterfly's exclusive 
upgrade allows it to take off a whopping 50.0 damage making it the most 
powerful normal weapon in the game besides the rocket launcher and the 
Handcannon.

Description: A very stable yet powerful .45 magnum.

The Killer7 is the most powerful magnum until the Broken Butterfly receives its 
exclusive upgrade.  It has a fairly fast reload animation and already starts 
out with a very good damage rate that the Broken Butterfly must be powered up 
to obtain.  This weapon has no exclusive upgrade.

Description: This is a .50 magnum.  Need we say more?

Beat all the Mercenaries with a five star ranking for every character and the 
merchant will sell this in Leon's game (a bonus game).  This is the ultimate 
magnum that will kill just about any boss with one or two hits.  The gun 
requires it's own type of ammo which will be found in random objects or from 
enemy drops while the gun is in Leon's inventory.

It's exclusive upgrade increases the damage to 99.9 and gives it unlimited 
ammo.  Leon can still reload the gun by flicking the remote even when it has 
unlimited ammo if you want to look cool for a few seconds.

Description: A 12-gauge pump-action shotgun.  Don't leave home without it.

Leon finds this in the middle house on the north side of the village when he 
first arrives in Pueblo Village.  It is the weakest shotgun in the game, but 
it's exclusive allows for the same damage on long distance foes as if they were 
up close.  The only bad aspect of this exclusive is that the Riot Gun already 
does this.

Description: This pump-action shotgun is effective even at long distances!

By the time Leon arrives at the castle, he will have access to this shotgun.  
Leon holds the riot gun against his upper body so the aim usually feels better 
than the other shotguns and this gun will allow him to damage enemies at 
greater distances unlike the other (well, before exclusive upgrades).  The 
exclusive upgrade for this gun allows it to take off 10.0 damage.  The Striker 
can take off a max damage of 12.0, but remember that it cannot maintain that 
damage at a great distance.

Description: Equipped with the advantage of wide-shot, it enables faster firing 
than a standard shotgun

This shotgun takes up the least inventory space out of all the shotguns.  Its 
exclusive allows it hold a maximum capacity of 99, so this basically holds your 
entire inventory of shotgun shells at that point.  This weapon is for people 
that don't like to reload often and those that want to save inventory space as 
much as possible.

Description: A .223 caliber bolt action rifle.

This is the first rifle that Leon has access to in the game.  It takes up the 
least amount of inventory space when compared to the other rifle.  Leon must 
manually eject the shell of the bullet after firing every shot.  The rifle's 
exclusive upgrade allows for a whopping firepower of 30 so it basically becomes 
a magnum with a scope at that stage.

Description: A .223 caliber rifle capable of firing faster than the standard 
rifle.

This rifle can be bought once Leon makes it to the castle and, besides the 
exclusive damage upgrade with the normal rifle and the less inventory space 
that it takes, this is the best rifle that can be bought in the main game.  It 
doesn't require Leon to eject out a shell, so he can fire at the normal firing 
speed until he has to reload.  The scope also zooms a bit further than the 
normal rifle.

Description: A fully-automatic machine pistol.  Fires custom 9mm's.

This is the only rapid fire weapon that can be found in the normal game without 
unlocking any of the bonus weapons.  It is very useful and can be used in place 
of the handgun.  It is excellent for close crowds when you have not shotgun or 
just want to stun every enemy then run.  The cursor for the TMP will shake 
until a stock is bought for it.  With the stock, the aiming is precise just 
like with a handgun.

Extra peripheral(s): Stock (TMP)

Description: This weapon fires custom "mines" that attach to objects and 
detonate after a period of time.

Ever played Resident Evil 3: Nemesis?  The Mine Thrower is a very fun weapon to 
use.  It fires out explosive mines that will stick inside of a target and 
detonate in about 3 seconds.  The mines have about the same destructive power 
as a hand grenade once they explode.  The Mine Thrower's ammo is mine darts 
which can be found in breakable objects and from enemy drops while the Mine 
Thrower is in Leon's inventory.  Its exclusive upgrade allows the mines to home 
in on targets.

Extra peripheral(s): Scope (Mine Thrower)
