Killer7 (Japanese title: キラー7, Kirā Sebun) is a Japanese 2005 action-adventure game directed and written by Goichi Suda in his first video game released outside of Japan. The game, set in an alternate future, follows a group of assassins known as the killer7. Led by the enigmatic Harman Smith and hired by the United States government, the killer7 perform hits on targets as they uncover a political conspiracy within the Japanese and American governments. Killer7 initially received mixed reception when it was first released for its unconventional controls and plot, however, the game's other aspects were praised and led to the game gaining a cult following.
The following weapons appear in the video game Killer7:

Pistols
Walther PPK
A Walther PPK called ELECTROLITE (named after the song of the same name by R.E.M.) is Garcian Smith's weapon of choice. He uses it in conjunction with a suppressor that cannot be removed. The Walther PPK in this game has a magazine capacity of 5 rounds, which is two less than its real-life counterpart. Unlike the weapons of the other personas, the PPK (along with Garcian himself) cannot be upgraded in any way, cementing its role as a last resort weapon intended solely for Garcian's self-defense when he is out retrieving a fallen persona's paper-bagged head to revive them.
AMT Hardballer Longslide
KAEDE Smith's weapon of choice is a AMT Hardballer Longslide known as CONNECTION (named after the song by British rock band Elastica). She has mounted a scope on it, making it similar in appearance to the Terminator's pistol in The Terminator. Of note is that the pistol also appears in fellow Capcom game Resident Evil 4 (2005), where it is called the Killer7; the game's logo is also stamped on the pistol's slide. The weapon's inclusion in the game is likely as a promotional crossover, as both games were released as part of the "Capcom Five".
Glock 23
Con Smith carries two customized Glock 23s known as "DISARM" (a reference to the song of the same name by The Smashing Pumpkins). The game suggests that the pistols are fully automatic, but the ROF in-game suggests Con is simply pulling the triggers quickly. They are not Glock 19's as originally stated. Note the 10 round capacity in-game.
Browning Hi-Power
A Browning Hi-Power is used by the female assassin in the level "Sunset pt. 1", and by Curtis Blackburn in "Encounter". The assassin's Hi-Power is two-tone, but Curtis' is fully chrome with gold engravings.
Beretta Cougar
A Beretta Cougar is used by assassin Jean DePaul in both "Sunset" levels.
Revolvers
Taurus Model 44
Dan Smith's weapon of choice is a customized Taurus Model 44 known as HANDSOME DEVIL (named after the song of the same name by British rock band The Smiths).
Enfield No. 2
A customized Enfield No. 2 called "FREAK SCENE" (a reference to the song of the same name by American rock band Dinosaur Jr.) is Coyote Smith's weapon of choice.
"Demon Gun"
Smith & Wesson Model 29
A customized, gold-plated Smith & Wesson Model 29 known as the Golden Gun is used by Greg Nightmare in "Smile". The revolver is later taken by Garcian Smith.
Submachine Guns
M1928 Thompson
A customized M1928 Thompson is the weapon of choice of a young Harman Smith in the unlockable Killer8 mode, unlocked after beating the regular game.
Heckler & Koch MP5A5
A customized Heckler & Koch MP5A5 is used by AYAME Blackburn at the end of "Encounter Pt. 1". The gun is equipped with a sight, a vertical foregrip, and a laser sight.
Sniper Rifles
Barrett M82A1
Harman Smith's weapon of choice is a Barrett M82A1 known as "GLIDER" (a reference to the song of the same name by Irish-English rock band My Bloody Valentine). The rifle is equipped with an Aimpoint sight.
Grenade Launchers
M79 Grenade Launcher
MASK de Smith's weapons of choice are a pair of cut-down, heavily customized M79 grenade launchers known as "DREAM ALL DAY" (a reference to the song of the same name by American rock band The Posies).
