Title note

So far, Capcom's marketing has only referred to this remake as "Resident Evil 3" without the "Nemesis" subtitle. Spartan198 (talk) 21:54, 11 December 2019 (EST)

Glock

Jill's Glock looks more like the full size than the 19.

She's holding it in the statue that comes with the collector's edition of the game[1]. I'm pretty sure it's a 19. Spartan198 (talk) 06:44, 12 December 2019 (EST)

Here's a higher-res image of Jill's character model[2]. Definitely a 19, though I was wrong on which generation. But I see that's been corrected already. Spartan198 (talk) 10:54, 12 December 2019 (EST)

I am so glad they are again using real weapons like the original unlike RE6. Though why replace Jill's iconic Samurai Edge is beyond me. They kept Leon's gun the same in the remake and the Hi Power. Excalibur01 (talk) 19:52, 12 December 2019 (EST)

Could be because Jill is on suspension and had to turn in her samurai edge and the glock is her personal weapon.Kornflakes89 (talk) 16:43, 14 January 2020 (EST)

The Samurai Edge has become something of an "Excalibur" (lol) to RE fans. It wouldn't surprise me if one or more versions of it are DLC weapons like they were in RE2. Spartan198 (talk) 07:25, 13 December 2019 (EST)

I've always wanted an 92 ever since Die Hard Excalibur01 (talk) 22:46, 13 December 2019 (EST)

Also, how much you wanna bet they kept the factory sights on it even though no real shooter would ever keep them on Excalibur01 (talk) 19:52, 12 December 2019 (EST)

Keep in mind that stringent gun control keeps most Japanese from ever becoming "real shooters." Spartan198 (talk) 07:25, 13 December 2019 (EST)

You'd be surprised how knowledgeable some gun geeks are in Japan. The Airsoft community there is pretty hardcore Excalibur01 (talk) 22:45, 13 December 2019 (EST)

M933 possible in 1998

I mean, one could assemble one considering you just add a shorter barrel to an M4's flat top. The poster actually shows the rifle with what looks like an Aimpoint Excalibur01 (talk) 23:59, 11 December 2019 (EST)

Since this is still a remake and taking place in the late 90s, quad rails were not a thing yet, so it's hard to imagine them having it on an M4 Excalibur01 (talk) 00:07, 12 December 2019 (EST)

According to an M4 carbine progression timeline chart I found on PEO Soldier or something years back, KAC first introduced the original RIS (later replaced mostly by the improved RAS) handguard in 97. I don't recall exactly when the M933 was introduced as a factory setup, but 11.5" barrels had been around since the 60s and flat top uppers were nothing new when the original game was made in 98. Spartan198 (talk) 06:39, 12 December 2019 (EST)

This is practically the same when i was wondering that about the 3rd Gen Glock 17 when editing the RE Outbreak page, as far as i know, they were still yet to be produced, the SIGPROSP2009 was definetily anachronistic for the time period the game is set in (1998) versus the year it was made in (1999) i think. Still, i really like how Carlos' Colt is set up, notice how he has a rear sight in conjunction with his Comp M2, most games when mounting an optic either the rear sight is down or is completely removed so props to that, when the optic is damaged and goes off, you still have a reference point of aim.--Death Shadow20 (talk) 10:41, 12 December 2019 (EST)

Special Forces guys were the first ones to do that. They basically took the carrying handle that's removable from their M4s, hack saw the handle part and leave the rear sight so they can cowitness a rear sight with their red dots Excalibur01 (talk) 00:16, 5 January 2020 (EST)

Jill having a 2nd Gen Glock or a 3rd gen would both make sense since 3rd gens were introduced in 1998. Since the game firmly takes place in 1998 like the original. We can surmise since Umbrella is the mega corporation that the 90s warned us about, it would be safe to assume they'd armed their private army with the most advanced gear they can get. Though oddly in the poster and in the original, the rifles used by the Umbrella troops had red dots on them. The one screen shot we have of the rifle placed down doesn't look like it has one on it. Excalibur01 (talk) 19:48, 12 December 2019 (EST)

Considering Jill is loading a flush fit mag in her Glock in one shot and has an extended mag in it in another, it's safe to assume RE2's weapon mod system carries over and the red dot sight is a mod that can be found somewhere in the game world. Spartan198 (talk) 07:16, 13 December 2019 (EST)

In fact, I'd bet my last dollar she'll find parts to mod it into a full auto like the G18. Spartan198 (talk) 07:28, 13 December 2019 (EST)

I'm really hoping for an easy mode like in the original where you start off with all the best weapons to just have fun with the game. Excalibur01 (talk) 19:48, 12 December 2019 (EST)

Benelli M3 with M4 stock

There's a screenshot of the game rolling around with an M3 that I can only assume was modeled after the M3 made by airsoft company CYMA. [1]

Appreciate that, thank you. Spartan198 (talk) 06:59, 13 December 2019 (EST)

Wanna bet they will only use the pump action feature and not the semi auto feature? Excalibur01 (talk) 22:29, 15 January 2020 (EST)

Possible 870

So, I was watching the new trailer yesterday and I noticed Jill using what appeared to be a Remington 870 or it could be possibly be the Benelli with wood furniture. You can see it in the trailer at :48 seconds in. I tried to take a screenshot but I'm having trouble uploading it but I managed to find this instead. [1]

I already have the 870 listed on the page, but thanks for bringing that shot of Jill with it to my attention. I'll try to upload it. Spartan198 (talk) 07:19, 16 January 2020 (EST)

I'm assuming, since it has the same rear sight the M3 does, and the 870 doesn't have any rear sight in particular, that it's an M3 with a wooden stock. Jimona (talk) 13:10, 16 January 2020 (EST)

It's unusual, but not completely unheard of.

A Nintendo Super Scope? That's hilarious. I guess the Duck Hunt jokes were more suitable than I thought. Any opposition to uploading a reference image for it? IIRC, we've done it before for Nerf guns used as the basis for a prop weapon. Spartan198 (talk) 07:36, 16 January 2020 (EST)
