The following weapons are used in the Devil May Cry series:
Devil May Cry
Ebony and Ivory
Dante’s hand-made guns, Ebony and Ivory are heavily customized Colt M1911s. Both weapons sport compensators to reduce felt recoil and muzzle flip in firing, molded grips, custom slides and frames, special engraving, and extended magazines. Despite being paired, Ebony and Ivory are not identical, aside from the colors, the other differences are:
- Ebony has Bo-mar rear sights, A long spur hammer for one handed cocking, and the normal 1911 long safety lever. And if you notice, Ebony's slide is also designed to eject from the left instead of the right as the Ivory is. The Ebony is exclusively a left hand gun.
- Ivory has smaller sights (novak or MMC), a shorter tactical safety lever and a nearly hidded bobbed hammer.
Luce & Ombra
Aside from the printed names, Sparda's two handguns are exactly the same as Dante's.
Shotgun
A sawed-off 12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun Dante holds one-handed and reloads by flicking the weapon open and closed (and without actually adding new cartridges).
Grenade launcher
Resembling an RG-6 but appearing to be mostly fictional, this is a grenade launcher with a revolver magazine operated with a charging handle attached to the left-hand side of the barrel, resembling the more normal underside foregrip rotated ninety degrees. The pause menu animation shows this being operated to rotate the cylinder; it's impossible to tell if this happens in the game, since Dante lets the weapon recoil to the point it's almost vertical during the firing animation.
Devil May Cry 2
The shotgun and Ebony & Ivory return from the first game. New to this installment are:
Heckler & Koch MP5K
Called the "machine guns" and used in a pair as with Dante's handguns.
FIM-92A Stinger
The FIM-92A Stinger is useable by Dante, called the "rocket launcher."
Rheinmetall MG3A1
The boss "Infested Tank" is a fictional variant of the German Leopard 2 A5 (identified by the shorter L44 main gun); this version mounts a coaxial flamethrower rather than one MG3, but still has the other on the commander's hatch and will attack Dante or Lucia with it if either tries to get on top of the turret.
M230 Chain Gun
The boss "Infested Chopper" is an AH-64 Apache mounting what appear to be two giant Maverick air-to-ground missiles, Hydra rocket packs, and a M230 Chain Gun under the chin.
Devil May Cry 3
Spiral
A gigantic anti-material rifle that uses an overhead magazine, Spiral is Devil May Cry 3's heavy long-ranged weapon. One of the special moves has perhaps the most ridiculous physics in the series, which is saying something in a series where being impaled through the chest often fails to even injure the victim's clothes: Dante is said to use a "trick shot" to ricochet the bullet off multiple surfaces to make it go faster.
