Resident Evil: Degeneration (2008)

Resident Evil: Degeneration is a computer-generated film that was released by Capcom in 2008 as an official canon film to the Resident Evil videogame series (Since the Paul W.S. Anderson versions have been, shall we say, less than satisfactory). The story takes place in the fictional city of Harvardville, U.S.A. in the year 2005 (One year after the events of Resident Evil 4), where it is revealed that in the seven years that have followed since the destruction of Raccoon City in 1998 (The year Resident Evil 2 took place) a pharmaceutical company called WilPharma has taken the reigns of continuing the study/research of the T-Virus (Since the Umbrella Corporation has since been dissolved) to prevent any future biohazardous outbreaks or future bio-terrorism attacks. However, when a T-Virus outbreak occurs without warning at the city's local airport, special agent Leon S. Kennedy is called in to deal with the outbreak, and to find out who or what is behind it. During which he is reunited with his old partner, Claire Redfield, and along with the help of several other allies, they both begin to discover that there is more behind the circumstances surrounding this T-Virus outbreak than there seems to be...

The following firearms were seen in Resident Evil: Degeneration:


Handguns

Silver Ghost

Leon's primary weapon throughout the movie, known as the Silver Ghost[1], is the same custom handgun he used in the game Resident Evil 4, with the laser sight being replaced with a flashlight. The Silver Ghost resembles a longer version of the HK USP and Smith & Wesson Sigma. The slide, magazine, and lower frame resemble the Sigma but the weapon has a hammer as opposed to a striker and a threaded barrel extension for suppressors similar to the USP. The grips are wood framed with polymer panels and a central medallion on each side, similar to the design used on the Samurai Edge grips.

Glock 30

Leon keeps a Glock 30 in an ankle holster as a backup, though the Glock 30 is chambered for .45ACP, whilst the Silver Ghost is chambered for 9mm. He gives it to Claire at the end of the movie. This is also seen in the promotional posters as Claire's gun.

H&K VP70M

Davis' bodyguard fires two rounds from his 3rd Generation Glock 17 into a zombie's chest, which ends up doing nothing since the zombies of Resident Evil are based on the Living Dead, and can only be killed by destroying the brain.

Angela's Glock 17 Custom

Angela's sidearm is a Glock 17 with target sights and a barrel weight/compensator. This seems to be product placement for Tokyo Marui, an airsoft company that provides reference material on firearms for Capcom. Marui produced a similar model called the "G26 AdVanced," with nearly identical modifications to Angela's Glock (the only difference being the Glock 17's full length grip).

Walther P5 Compact

At the end of the film, Frederic Downing uses a Walther P5 Compact near the end of the film. He racks the slide after drawing it, indicating he carries the pistol without a round chambered - not the best idea for self-defense.

Submachine Guns

Angela's Custom MP5K PDW

Angela's primary weapon is a custom Heckler & Koch MP5K-PDW. It features an interesting vertical foregrip attachment that is latched onto the weapon with a thumbhole and an integral flashlight. The front and rear sights have been replaced with a single piece that forms a rail across the top of the weapon similar to that of the H&K G36C's rail. The PDW's standard folding stock has been replaced with a retractable buttstock like those found on the full-sized MP5A3 and MP5A5.

Two of the Marines carry M4A1 Carbines with M203 under-barrel attachments when they engage with an infected Curtis Miller in WilPharma's underground facility. Leon later picks up one of these rifles.

Shotguns

Remington Model 1100

we see Claire with a Remington Model 1100 in the flashback of the Raccoon City Incident. While this weapon was available in Resident Evil 2, it was not available during Claire's campaign.
