The Hand Gun (ハンドガン handogan ) is a weapon in Resident Evil 2. The gun is identified as a Heckler & Koch VP70. It is a polymer pistol that served as Leon Scott Kennedy's R.P.D. police firearm.
Gameplay[]
The Hand Gun holds 18 H. Gun Bullets. Leon can find Handgun Parts which upgrades the gun to the C. Hand Gun.
Main game[]
During the main game in Leon A and Leon B, Leon starts with this in his inventory. It is a useful weapon early on, with a larger magazine than Claire's Browning HP handgun.
Leon's Handgun is a preferred choice when fighting the lesser enemies of the game such as zombies and Zombie Dogs. However, it is weak against lickers, and inadequate for tough opponents like T-00.
The 4th Survivor[]
In The 4th Survivor, HUNK has the Hand Gun in his starting inventory. It is best recommended to use it against Zombies, Zombie Dogs and Ivy B.O.W.s.
