Changes: Hand Gun (RE2 Leon's)

Revision as of 03:52, 25 November 2012

Template:Weapon Infobox

The VP70? Handgun was Leon's starting handgun during Resident Evil 2.

The weapon is useful, with a larger magazine than Claire's Browning. The VP70 is a preferred choice when fighting the lesser enemies of the game such as zombies and Zombie Dogs.

Leon can also find Handgun Parts (in a locked desk outside the Police Station library) which upgrade the VP70 to the VP70 machine-pistol (called the VP70 Burst ingame). Using these parts, the handgun gains a plastic stock and three shot burst functionality, and is now called VP70 Burst. The upgrade does not increase the power, but a single burst can knock down a zombie (useful in close quarters). Upgraded, Leon can effectively take on tougher opponents such as lickers with ease when using the Burst Mode, but with the disadvantage of a much heavier ammunition usage. The handgun can now be set to either Semi-Auto Mode or 3-Shot Burst Mode.

Both versions fire 9x19mm Parabellum rounds.

Umbrella Security Service operative HUNK carries the basic VP70 handgun in his kit during the Fourth Survivor scenario,it is best recommended to use it against Zombies, Zombie Dogs and Ivy B.O.W.s
