Old topic I know, but I'd like to put forward the theory that it's based on the Tokyo Marui "AutoMag III" airsoft gun.

Judging by the ejection port and magazine, the caliber appears to be a special kind of .50. it's either .50 GI or smaller. Since the game takes place in 1998, I'm not certain if .50 GI rounds were released at that time. [[User:GoldCobraJet810|GoldCobraJet810]] 02:48:06, 20 October 2020 (UTC) | |||
.50 GI rounds were introduced in 2004 at the SHOT Show, 2 years after [[Resident Evil 0]] was released. So the exact caliber bullet of the Sporting International Magnum Custom is a special kind created just for the game which was set in 1998. Now it's 2020, so I'd love to see a Tokyo Marui airsoft replica of the gun. And I'd love if it was based on a .50 GI gun.

Currently, I'm inclined to think that the barrel, cylinder, sights, cylinder release, and hammer come from the Raging Bull, while the grips, crane, ejector rod housing, and trigger come from the Python, with the frame combining features of both.

Billy's Handgun
It looks to me like some kind of cross between a Colt and an STI Edge, but I'd say it is an original design to avoid copyrights.
(Can someone identify this one, please?) (It would appear to be an M1911A1, or one of the many variants thereof. ) (Don't know if it's really standard issue for the army, but it seems to be a Kimber of some sort.)
- There aren't any 9mm Kimbers and the Army no longer uses 1911s as their standard sidearms in the 80s and they never used 9mm chambered 1911s. They now use the Beretta M9. It could be a clone of a 1911 that is chambered in 9mm. Excalibur01 10:10, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
- It's defiantly a clone of the 1911, reflecting some designs from the SV Infinity line up of Handguns. It was possibly a custom gun, one of the Officer's kept with him prior to and during transport with Billy Cohen. Draco122
Well, keep in mind that Resident Evil is a Japenese game, so it could be the Japenese army's weapon of choice. I don't really know what the Japenese really uses anyway, so just a thought. ColonelTomb
-Definitely not. The J.S.D.F use SIG P22X (can't remember which derivative could be a P226) as their standard sidearm. Remember this was the period when they started to use 'Pseudo guns'(Guns that resemble realistic models but not 100% genuine) presumably to dodge copyright infringements.
Remember to keep in mind that the Resident Evil series isn't terribly realistic - the weapon is probably modeled after a .45 1911 and uses 9mm for gameplay reasons.
Plus the Resident Evil games have weapons in all kinds of wierd configurations. To me, it looks like an M1911 with an open slide, I would say the designers based it on an M1911, and designed it to look unique.--Alienqueen11 05:22, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
Or the most obvious reason why this gun is in 9mm is because all the handgun ammo you find in the game are 9mm. Even if this was a 9mm 1911, it wouldn't hold 15 rounds. Most guns in Resident Evil would have to use the same kind of ammunition for gameplay purposes. Excalibur01 05:16, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
- It does have an open-top slide, like a Beretta, guys. (protoAuthor)
This debate was getting a bit large, so I took the liberty of moving it to the discussion page. Hope doing so was okay. Spartan198 12:05, 25 May 2009 (UTC) Spartan198
- Billy's Handgun doesn't exist, it's just something Capcom threw together. An M1911 with an open top slide, using 15 9mm rounds, modified grip, multi-tone design. Like a lot of their guns, they just made it themsevles.
Magnum
The gun is completely orignal and doesnt exist in reality. As with alot of the weapons in the series it was created original to avoid copyrights.
- Looks like a cross between a Desert Eagle, specificly the .357 verison and a 1911 variant. Excalibur01 05:17, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
(Not sure what this one is, but if I had to guess I'd say AMT Hardballer.)
- I'd say an Automag Model 5. - Gunmaster45
- Nah, it doesn't have the shape of an Automag Excalibur01 01:16, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
- It's gun that Capcom made up to avoid paying the rights to use a real gun.Oliveira 00:58, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
- Most of the people in this discussion seem to be pretty much saying the same thing, it has a slide similar to that of a 1911 while the style of the handle resembles a Desert Eagle. Also the fact that its chambered in .50AE and holds 6 rounds (vs 7) might also suggest that its partially based on the Desert Eagle or the LAR Grizzly Mark V. .-SoldierofUnfortune
Moved to discussion page. Anyhow, the Resident Evil Wiki identified it as a "Sporting Int. Magnum Custom Edition chambered in .50 Action Express". Are there any existing pistols by that name? Spartan198
- I don't know any guns with that name. You better Ask MT2008.-Oliveira 13:13, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
I think it's based off the LAR Grizzly Mark V. Some were chambered for the .50 AE cartridge.
I'm thinking it's a Coonan Arms .357 Magnum. The Coonan Models A & B look pretty much exactly like a beefed up 1911. The Cadet version was a bit more compact (for a .357 Magnum firing semi-auto, anyway). Lonecontractor 02:19, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
ALL of the guns in Resident Evil (2002) and Resident Evil 0 are fictional in some way. The Samurai Edge is called a Samurai Edge and not a Beretta 92 for licensing reasons. The "Magnum" is a totally fictional design, as is the Pump Shotgun, Sub-Machine Gun (a slightly "updated" version with a new UMP-like stock was seen in Umbrella Chronicles) and so on. This was done in Resident Evil 4 as well, to a much greater degree. DanKnyphausen
It's called the "Sporting Int. Magnum Custom Edition". It's an economic alternative to the Desert Eagle that was manufactured by Umbrella Corp.
I actually saw a handgun that bared a striking resemblance to the magnum in a gun magazine, it was manufactured by Tanfoglio. So my guess that it is a T95, or a variant thereof.

Samurai Edge
The author mistakingly refers to the samurai edge as a Beretta 96, when it is and allways was a custom Beretta 92FS.
Seconded. That's a hell of a mistake, seeing a the Samurai Edge is one of the most easily recognizable video game guns out there.
- If the samurai edge was chambered in .40 s&w, is a 96. Thats the way it´s called. Now, if you like to call 92fs kendos custom, your problem.
- IF it was chambered in .40 it would be a 96. But it's chambered in 9mm in the game. Derpaderp.
How could the author do something that stupid? The M92FS custom "Samurai Edge" is one of the most famous videogame guns there is.
