There is a good stats guide on gamefaqs forum, Google it, I dont have the link now.

JMB is the best one, always focused and upgradeable. You have to craft ammo though.

The Revolver is later useful when you upgrade it to an Magnum, so i would also say the JMB. The Colt is useful against ingle Zombies or for Headshots, higher possibility for it at least.

okay, yea i had to craft ammo for Matilda on leons 2nd, kinda sucked

The .45 is the best gun in my opinion
The starting pistol becomes very usefull when upgraded. The Colt is really good for headshots but don t forget the long reload time ! :re2zombie: :re2stars:

The best gun is Claire's original with the high power shots. But it's more of a magnum type gun with limited ammo.

For general gun, it's up to the player. I feel that if you are very accurate, the quickdraw Army is the best gun. However if you are not a good player, then its the worst gun, as its unforgiving as hell and in this case the JMB Hp3 is superior (and Samurai edge before you get it).

But I feel the best expert way to play scenario B is using the Quickdraw, not making handgun ammo at all. I think thats how they really intended people to play.

after countless HC S+ runs, blue samurai edge(chris) is overall the best pistol.
Anyone else here misses Claire s Crossbow ?

Stick to the Quickdraw Army because its the only one that gets ammo and it can unload on a boss pretty quick if you're in trouble or need to stagger something.

You can make tons of 9 mm bullets with powder. After all, White Powder should go only for SMG ammo.

The starting gun is a piece of crap, until you fully upgrade it.
The thing is that you only get a handful of upgraded ammo, i use them on the G's until i got the spark shot. Then i finish them on Birkin'ass and throw the gun away.

JMB Hp3 is the best gun. That's it.

Samurai Edge, they are good, but they are not really interesting. Chris faster aim is useless with the JMB, Jill's faster reload is just not useful and Wesker's extra damage are non-relevant.

Quick Draw Army shoot very fast and took ages to reload.
It's actually the most powerful because it shoot a more powerful caliber. It's still not that good.

Since it's the second run that mean you can only rely on the Quick Draw. Don't do 9mm bullets with the powders, make grenade. Well you can make 9mm bullets if you really want but it's not that useful.

The thing with Claire is that all your weapon are very good for deprieving zombies of their members. But actual killing? Good luck with that.

Acid round can make both arm or legs melt away.
The Quickdraw can easily pop a leg out.
The machine-gun is a leg buster. And if you get the silencer you can use it next to a Licker without them losing their ♥♥♥♥.

The way to go is to take the zombies legs out and knife them or run.

I finished Claire 2nd run 3 day ago, the amount of ammunition i had for the 3 last bosses was ridiculous.
Even worse than the ammount i had with Claire 1st... (something around 500 machine gun bullet, 200 9mm and around 20 grenades round)

I guess you didnt kill everything if you had so many bullets left?

since in the 2nd run the .45 pistols should do more dmg and the normal ammo gets replaced with them, use the quick draw army.

use the starting pistol with the upgrade and magnum rounds.
