Lock, Load, and Listen Up: Your Guide to Gaming’s Greatest Guns (and Infinite Ammo Hacks)
Gamers, gather ’round. We dive into video game weaponry. Today, we focus on sidearms – handguns. Sometimes you need a reliable pistol to escape trouble or feel like an action hero.
The Mythical Infinite MUP Handgun: A Resident Evil Legend
First, the **Infinite MUP Handgun**. Fans of Resident Evil know this one. It’s the weapon that says, “Don’t worry about ammo.” This gun mirrors its Resident Evil 2 version, but it offers unlimited bullets. Pew pew all you want without reloading. Where can you find this beauty? Look for the MUP in Resident Evil 2 Remake with HUNK in “The 4th Survivor” mode and in Ghost’s scenario from “The Ghost Survivors” DLC. Expect no drum mag. You start with a realistic 16-round magazine. Realism with infinite bullets. The MUP is a digital version of the real-world USP9 handgun. When someone questions video game realism, you can boast, “My infinite ammo pistol is based on a real gun.”
Infinite Ammo: Because Reloading is for Chumps (Sometimes)
Let’s explore infinite ammo. Become a walking armory in Resident Evil. Why scavenge for bullets with zombies around?
Resident Evil 7: Madhouse Mayhem and Endless Magazines
In Resident Evil 7, unlocking infinite ammo is an honor. It shows your survival skills. How do you get it? Beat the Madhouse difficulty. Face the Baker family at their worst. Surviving that ordeal grants you a glorious item in your storage box. Equip it, and BAM! You have infinite ammo for every weapon. Suddenly, those mold monsters seem less frightening.
Resident Evil Village (RE8): CP Grind for Unlimited Pew Pew
Resident Evil Village takes another approach to infinite ammo. Beat the game first. This unlocks the “Extra Content Shop.” Here you use Challenge Points (CP). Earn CP from completing challenges. Buy infinite ammo with these points. The catch? It’s not a blanket unlock. Each weapon requires its own ammo budget. You must max out your weapon first. Buy all modifications from the Duke’s Emporium. Then upgrade all parts to the max level. It’s a commitment, yes, but think of blam-blamming a Lycan’s face without worries. Some weapons like the Grenade Launcher allow instant purchase of infinite ammo since they lack upgrades. Explosions can embody infinity too.
Handgun Showdown: RE Edition – Pistol Rankings and Rivalries
Now, let’s rank some handguns in the Resident Evil universe. Not all pistols are equal against hordes.
RE8: LEMI vs. M1911 – The American Classic Wins
In Resident Evil Village, the LEMI is simply a starter handgun. Meet the M1911, your upgrade. The M1911 beats the LEMI in almost every category except ammo size. Better damage, better handling. This pistol feels substantial. It becomes Ethan’s sidearm for part of the game thanks to the Duke’s upgrades for Rate of Fire and Power.
RE8: LEMI vs. Samurai Edge – Power vs. Prestige
Another competitor is the Samurai Edge. The LEMI is for beginners, while the M1911 is reliable. The Samurai Edge packs more punch than the LEMI, making it a better overall weapon. It’s stylish and strong, conveying mastery – even when you run around screaming.
RE7: M19 vs. G17 – Damage vs. Magazine Size
In the dark corners of Resident Evil 7, meet the M19 and G17 handguns. The M19 generally outperforms the G17 with higher damage per shot and better critical headshot chances. But the G17 holds more ammo. It’s a trade-off: hit hard or shoot more often? Against the Bakers, every bullet counts. Lean towards damage first.
RE5: M93R – The Pricey Powerhouse
Resident Evil 5 introduces the M93R, a handgun that commands respect and costs 30,000 (in some currency). It’s considered the best pistol in the game. If you have the resources, this mini-machine pistol is yours for the taking.
RE3 Remake: Magnum – Because Sometimes You Need a Hand Cannon
Don’t overlook the Magnum in Resident Evil 3 Remake. Finding it feels like pure joy. When a regular pistol fails, you want a weapon that blasts through walls or zombies with ease.

Resident Evil Codes and Conundrums: Cracking the Puzzles
Codes always exist in Resident Evil games! Practical digits to empty your memory! * **Lucas’ Door Code (RE7):** Want access to secret areas? Lucas Baker’s personal space has a code. It is **1408**.
