Handgun

The starting firearm in most Resident Evil games. The handgun comes in many shapes and forms, but are almost always loaded with 9mm Parabellum Handgun Bullets. The standard sidearm of S.T.A.R.S. in most games is the Beretta M92 which may or may not have been customised into the Samurai Edge variant depending on the game being played.

The handgun stat wise is a very weak pistol, but once the exclusive upgrade is obtained, it increases the handgun's chance of headshots by 500%. With that exclusive upgrade, the handgun is a bullet and health saver when it comes to fighting normal enemies without helmets. However this effect is useless when fighting bosses and certain other enemies.
