@@melissazadrozny5167 From my experience, not really. At max level, it has higher ammo and better rate of fire, but slower reload and slightly less damage compared to the SG-09R. Mind you that the slightly less damage seems to make it be less reliable in popping off heads compared to the SG-09R. At least from what I've noticed when using both guns. You're likely better off using the SG-09R over the Sentinel Nine if you're going for headshots.
Red9 is kinda nerfed compared to the Blacktail. There is no reason not to use the Blacktail over the Red9. And I love the Red9, especially in the original.
@@Khtras I also found the Red9 has more stun power. The first time I used it in hardcore, I was able to stagger enemies easier. That alone makes me like it more.
Yea they really made the game more balanced. In the original the default handgun and the red9 were the best pistols in the game without a doubt when maxed out due to their damage alone (ignoring the Matilda because that can’t be obtained in a new game playthrough), the default pistol’s crit rate and the red9’s insane damage per hit. Now the red9 is less accurate and the default crit rate has been reduced making the other handguns more viable, and not to forget the Matilda is now available in a new game playthrough
Punisher with laser sight for penetration, goes through armor and is great for saving ammo playing bottlenecks. Also is the most satisfying to shoot for me.
@@Hushooit definitely hurts more on regenerator’s parasites but the parasites don’t just die in one shot so LE5 and sniper rifles still work way better in terms of killing them.
I love the new rendition of the Leon's pistol Silver kendo custom USP with a short compensator so it won't interfere with drawing Front sight mounted forward to give a better sight radius
Silver Ghost crit chance is 30-50% and multiplies damage by 10. It turns the base handgun into a monster. The reason it took so many shots in the video is because he wasn’t using the laser. The laser raises your crit chance because it considers you “fully aimed” as if your crosshairs were fully constricted, which inherently boosts crit rate.
@@farzwolf2 Yeah, the only handgun i used in the OG game was the Red9. This time around the SG-09 is ruthless. Every other shot is like a maxed out shotgun blast to the dome.
@@cl86241 Me too. In OG Red9 for HG, Striker for SG and Butterfly for Magmum. Kinda feels sad because other weapon it's just being there but Remake make a fresh air in weapon balance.
25% without focus aim. 35% with focus aim (which you will always have if the laser sight is equipped). With the exclusive upgrade, of course. Critical hit damage multiplier for handguns is x3. Headshots adds an extra 50% damage.
「For me, BlackTail has been the best since og. It was literally a Jack-of-all-trades (second highest damage, doesn't take too much space, don't shake too much, and it was fast to shoot and reload)」
@@NoOneatallworthy and being the worst value per shot handgun in origin, even Punisher can outdamage this gun if used correctly. Never make me proud in professional mode even once where bullets are scarce and enemies are tough as a nail. But shine so bright in standard which is like you are swimming in a bullet pond. Disclaimer: I'm talking about re4(2005) not the remake tho.
I started with the Red9 as soon as it became available because it was so OP in the original, but switched to Blacktail during the 2nd half of the game. It's the best allrounder imho and totally worth the benefits vs just a bit less damage over the Red9. On my 2nd playthrough I played around with a fully upgraded SG-09 during the village section and was a bit underwhelmed. Relying on crits seemed too inconsistent to me, and most of the time I'd take down Ganados with fewer shots using the Blacktail. I'll try playing around with the Punisher to see if the extra utility that comes with piercing is worth it for me.
Blacktail is such a solid little thing with such good CONSISTENT dps. I always see ppl talking about the Red9 when this thing takes up half the space for only slightly less dmg, but with much higher fire rate and reload speed and is also very accurate. Definitely my go-to. I wish I could enjoy the Silver Ghost or S9 with laser sight as much but having to rely on crits feels like too much of an unreliable gimmick. You're forced to hit headshots and weakspots just for the bonus to be _possible_ to activate and even then you're only getting it a quarter of the time, when the blacktails high damage will always be there for you no matter where you're hitting them
Crit chance is 30-50% and multiplies damage by 10. Not really a gimmick. It turns the base handgun NASTY. The reason it took so many shots in the video is because he wasn’t using the laser. The laser raises your crit chance because it considers you “fully aimed” as if your crosshairs were fully constricted.
@I will argue with anyone about anything I wouldn't consider 20 damage that "nasty", that barely passes for unupgraded magnum damage. Idk if it's bugged for me but that 30-50% doesn't seem about right when ive only gotten 2 head explosions between the span of 3 whole chapters, and yes I always use the laser sight and hit heads. It's just not working. I have a much better time knowing it only takes me 2 to 3 shots per ganado than *hoping* my excess time wasted trying to hit weakspots actually does something for me. Honestly the REAL use for it is getting critical melee's, (and yes, the exclusive upgrade DOES apply to melee so long as you simply have it equipped when you do it). The best combination for it is the illuminados emblem and striker charm + wolf tail accessory, and you can just kick everything to death for the memes
@@windbeneathmywings4884 The strongest shotgun damage in the game is 20.2. How is a handgun that pops 20s every other couple shots NOT nasty? That makes no sense. And critical chance is also affected by adaptive difficulty, meaning if you are doing very well, it lowers your crit. If you're playing on the Weenie Hut Junior difficulties (standard or assisted), your crit rate is also lower. And I know you're full of doo doo about only getting two headshots in 3 chapters. At worst, you'll explode every 3rd or 4th enemy's head. It's not a gamble-- it's super reliable. I have like 160 hours in the game and it's genuinely the best handgun I've used (same with sentinel9). And I'm saying this as a Red9 user in the original game. Based on what you said about having to "waste time" aiming for weakpoints, you probably play on console so aiming is significantly harder. On PC, aiming for headshots is easy asf, so you average way higher damage than the Red9.
Red9 talk is probably people still loving it from the original. That things damage per shot was leagues above the rest in original. I can't tell if they nerfed it, or buffed the other guns in this one.
Punisher is the best pistol in my opinion. Its so easy to get accurate shots on target and the fact that it can shoot through shields makes it easier to use nothing but your pistol for big mobs.
It's clear people prefer the Red9 overall. The Punisher is pretty good but only has penetration that makes it so. The Blacktail when it comes to numbers, is the overall best balanced platform for pistols. Only 1 shot more than the Red9 for maxed out damage, but has a much higher fire rate than all other pistols. The ammo capacity is healthy but isn't as stout as the Sentinel 9. Plus, what is not mentioned, the Blacktail is the most accurate pistol in the game, the cross hair is the smallest and takes the shortest time to close. The Punisher is probably the least accurate but it makes up for it with the penetration.
This is just like I'm waiting forever, thanks AshesWolf for hear my request for this video! Now we need comparison for SMG or maybe Knife too? Great video btw, I'll waiting for something like this video from ur channel again!
@@luckytimothy1330 Any weapon can critical hit on a weakpoint. The laser sight gives you the same critical rate (and stagger) boost as waiting a moment for your crosshairs to focus. It just lets you get that boost instantly while giving you more pinpoint precision. Critical Hits seem to deal x10 damage, regardless of the weapon. So it's kind of easy to figure that point out. On an extra note, you'll find that many speedrunners at least, dislike the x5 Critical Perk of the SG, Sent9 and Blacktail, as instead of stunning an enemy so you can quickly run past, you just triggered a Plaga transformation. Leading to a more dangerous situation that often costs more bullets/herbs/mats/etc.... If you want to get into using critical hits, then you might want to get into stagger as well. Stagger increases based on damage dealt per single shot, thus the Red9, out of all the handguns, has the highest stagger ability out of any handgun. Further, other than penetration from the Punisher (weakest of all the HGs... so much more ammo needed to kill things normally.... unless you line up shots), the higher the damage per shot breaks shields faster than faster, but smaller hits. Again, the laser sight does nothing but make your focus time instant. All HG's however can get the same boost by waiting for their crosshairs to focus.
When your movin the cross hairs don’t focus though and obviously waiten a second for them sometimes when getting crowds aint ideal wanna be able to get that right off the rip no time waiten. It’s my first play through since the OG and I got red9 almost maxed and don’t know if want to spend 95k for exclusive upgrade or max out and do the sentinal 9 and buy scope. Legit been sitten here cpl hours trying to find which is better.
I love the Punisher. First playthrough and it's my go to gun for most situations. The penetration factor is amazing in a bottleneck for enemies and the castle ganados with the wooden shields drop so easily because it just passes right through the shields with ease.
Nice vid! Def pros and cons to each gun. Red9 is still an absolute beast of a damage output, Blacktail is by far the best pound for pound handgun and matilda is just dirty when maxed out with the stock. I have a special love for the SG-09 and the Sentinel though for that exclusive upgrade and the laser sight though.
You should see how effective the sg09r is with amd without a laser to finally see whether the laser sight adds more than just aesthetic easier to aim cause they say critical shots happen more when the reticle stop moving so the laser sight makes it so that you don't have to wait
Without focus aim, the SG-09R has a 5% critical hit chance. With focus aim, it's 7%. The exclusive upgrade brings it up to 25% and 35% respectively. The laser sight makes the gun always in focused aim so with it and the exclusive upgrade, you'll always have a 35% chance to land a x3 damage critical hit on an enemy. That's 6.0 damage, 9.0 if it's a headshot.
@@tacticalochoa1310 For a recent video I shot a ganado 150 times to the head to see how many times it crits (the head pops) with the laser SG with the exclusive upgrade and it was around 5% chance (laser forces focused aim afaik). How did you get your numbers? Is it through testing or is there a method to check the stats ingame?
Yeah, I'd say it's the best handgun in the game if it weren't for the SG-09 and Sentinel 9's Crit odds and the laser sight bypassing the refocus mechanic. The Matilda is basically a submachine gun, it eats a ton of ammo but it shouldn't be an issue with the handgum ammo charms and starter case. Did my first playthrough on hard-core with just the Matilda and the AR. SG-09 and Stingray before I was able to get my mains.
I remember this same debate on internet a decade ago. We all have our own preferences maybe depends on how we play the game. I completed the OG RE4 on Professional mode countless times and my best handgun is the Red9 without stock and i also played the game without mouse support (OG PC version) so far for the remake i only completed once and i used the same handgun to complete it, but i also want to try using other handguns and see if they suits to my game style in this remake specially now that aiming is more easier compare to OG.
MOST OF THE RE4 OG WOULD DEF PICK RED 9, OF COURSE RED 9 IS NUMBER 1 FOR ME I DONT CARE ABOUT FIRE RATE AND STUFF WHERE I CAN 2 TAPS MOBS WITH THIS BABY.
I always used the Red9 in the original, even had a complete run on Professional using only a Red9 and the HC (without any upgrade on the reload speed because it looks delicious). On the remake however my go to is the starter with the laser. Red9 is criminally inaccurate and even with all it's damage it still felt too clunky to use and not that worthy to keep.
red-9 has been solid. it 1-3 shots the ganados, dogs, and smaller foes. its a reat weapon. but seeing other suggestions I really want to get the punisher next!
@@syzygy1776 Honestly the way the remake balanced the weapons was great (except the magnums imo). Every gun is great in a way, the first shotgun has the most damage per shot even if it's dps is lower because of the rate of fire. The Springfield is slow but packs better damage than the Stingray. The developers really did an amazing job giving so much diversity to the guns, given that RE4 has a lot of replayability.
Sentinel 9 is basically SG09-R DLC with high ammo capacity and faster fire rate but slight less damage on Max Power. Red9 ia best on Original but way worse in Remake because they nefred damage and accuracy massively to prevent people cheesing with this gun. Blacktail become even more favorable because of high damage, less space used and high accuracy but lack of ammo capacity. Matilda is good only when you have Stock and Exclusive upgrade since it replace SMG with extremely high rate of fire. As for Punisher, this will easily pierce enemies and any kind of Shields and Armors especially on late games where enemies become tougher and using armors to deflect non-piercing armors. My personal handgun always Sentinel 9 because it is easy to use with high capacity ammo and Exclusive 5× Critical Hit Rate making them easier to beat Mini-bosses (Brute, Salvador and Bella Sisters)
Thank you for doing this because I’m at a crucial point in the game. I just sold the skull, Shaker. ( maxed out ) and got the riot gun (2-maxed out ) and I wanted to do the same thing with the sentinel nine, which I maxed out but I didn’t wanna do it until I fully upgraded the red nine ( attachment etc Heard you could turn it into like a sub machine gun )- but if I can use the laser sight piece on the red nine going to sell that to the merchant ASAP so I can start upgrading the Red 9 plus I get a bunch of handgun bullets. I need to make sure I got the Best bang for the buck lol thanks again !
COMPARISON :- RED 9 VS BLACKTAIL ANSWER:- * LESS RECOIL WITH BEST AIM THEN GO FOR BLACKTAIL AND WHICH HAS GREAT SHOT SOUND * HIGH DAMAGE AND MADE FOR PROFESSIONALS WHO CAN HANDLE RECOIL
In displaying your examination windows of all weapons, I see you've maxed out AND upgraded the Exclusives for your Red9 and Blacktail! The last four pistols, though maxed out, don't have the upgraded Exclusives on them. Thank you for sharing your insight on all pistols' damage. However, based on your intention for this video and to have a clear, direct, and fair comparison, the last four pistols must also have upgraded Exclusives.
In the game says that if you wait while you are aiming, the crosshair get smaller and in that point you have more critical chance and power. Idk if that's true...
I used Red9 cause i really liked the damaged it had back in 2004 but actually here the blacktail is better,Faster reaload faster rate but for the run of only knives and guns i suggest to use matilda with cat ears
Im wondering what gun to use for Seperate ways professional, they only have Red 9, Punisher, and Blacktail I was gonna go with blacktail but i feel like the laser sight on punisher will help me with getting acurate shots, theres also a charm that lets ada use her hookshot to remove enemy shields so i wouldn't need the punisher for that
Pistol only run maybe (I would still choose sentinel for the crit bonus)..... Everything else it takes up too much inventory space especially with the stock. Blacktail FTW. It barely out damages it and it takes up a third of room.
warning this is very long read at your own risk and don't jike about becuase i warned youPunisher underated not saying it's the best pistol but it's he best values pistol you can save loads of ammo I highly suggest useing body shots for crowds because heads are pretty hard to line up not only that in the castle it'll be no work and the laser sight is super good low recoil high accuracy ammo persevering that's a true monster there sure the damage may be low trust me though that penetration will act as if the punisher had no bad damage although maybe if they added a attachment that increase the punisher dmg slightly that's be cool but brokenly overpowered overall it's a fairly balanced pistol Andi t help you alot in castle section highly recommend if your struggle in the castle due to those shield guys it's not that great it late game due its low dmg but it'll save up until mid game
SG09 w/ LASER >>>>>>>>>> * 5x more chance for critical shots (not removing heads, multiplying the damage). ** 5x more chance for critical works to kicks Aim “closed” have more chance to stop, stag and critical than aim “opened”. With laser, can consider always closed.
Red9: A Powerful of handgun and have a stock to reduce recoil. It's a nice gun, stranger. Blacktail: A Powerful but superior handing and fast firing. Original: 3x2 Remake: 2x2 SG-09: Increasing 50% Critical hit rate for headshot and one headshot to made easy to kill all ganados. One shot kill! Ganados: ☠️*DEAD*☠️ Matilda: Like a Resident evil 2 and ammo capacity x2 but just like the Original game in Matilda with 3-burst shot. Original game: beat the Normal difficulty or above. Sentinel Nine: Laser sight is activated and got Critical hit rate. Punisher: Piercing ability can x5 penetration power on enemies. Wise choice, mate.
Blacktail all day. Damage is only slightly lower than the Red 9, but it has higher rate of fire, faster reload, and less recoil. Because of all that, it has the highest possible DPS of any semi-auto pistol. The Matilda could technically do more under burst fire, but that's extremely impractical.
I love that the blacktail is exactly what it's sold as. A compact high performance gun with good all around stats.
No bs, if you use the blacktail you're using the most reliable handgun in the game.

Without focus aim, the SG-09R has a 5% critical hit chance. With focus aim, it's 7%. The exclusive upgrade brings it up to 25% and 35% respectively. The laser sight makes the gun always in focused aim so with it and the exclusive upgrade, you'll always have a 35% chance to land a x3 damage critical hit on an enemy. That's 6.0 damage, 9.0 if it's a headshot.
@@tacticalochoa1310 For a recent video I shot a ganado 150 times to the head to see how many times it crits (the head pops) with the laser SG with the exclusive upgrade and it was around 5% chance (laser forces focused aim afaik). How did you get your numbers? Is it through testing or is there a method to check the stats ingame?
honestly the matilda is really strong
Yeah, I'd say it's the best handgun in the game if it weren't for the SG-09 and Sentinel 9's Crit odds and the laser sight bypassing the refocus mechanic.
The Matilda is basically a submachine gun, it eats a ton of ammo but it shouldn't be an issue with the handgum ammo charms and starter case. Did my first playthrough on hard-core with just the Matilda and the AR. SG-09 and Stingray before I was able to get my mains.
Great Comparison Bro ❤❤❤
Thanks ✌
I remember this same debate on internet a decade ago. We all have our own preferences maybe depends on how we play the game. I completed the OG RE4 on Professional mode countless times and my best handgun is the Red9 without stock and i also played the game without mouse support (OG PC version) so far for the remake i only completed once and i used the same handgun to complete it, but i also want to try using other handguns and see if they suits to my game style in this remake specially now that aiming is more easier compare to OG.
The first pistol with the laser sight is the best for me. But I also wanted to play with Sentinel Nine, because Leon has it in the "Vendetta" movie.
The sentinel is better than the original
MOST OF THE RE4 OG WOULD DEF PICK RED 9, OF COURSE RED 9 IS NUMBER 1 FOR ME I DONT CARE ABOUT FIRE RATE AND STUFF WHERE I CAN 2 TAPS MOBS WITH THIS BABY.
Sg 09 with laser sight is my favorite then with the red 9 coming close but the firing rate is just too slow
I always used the Red9 in the original, even had a complete run on Professional using only a Red9 and the HC (without any upgrade on the reload speed because it looks delicious).
On the remake however my go to is the starter with the laser. Red9 is criminally inaccurate and even with all it's damage it still felt too clunky to use and not that worthy to keep.
red-9 has been solid. it 1-3 shots the ganados, dogs, and smaller foes. its a reat weapon. but seeing other suggestions I really want to get the punisher next!
@@syzygy1776
Honestly the way the remake balanced the weapons was great (except the magnums imo).
Every gun is great in a way, the first shotgun has the most damage per shot even if it's dps is lower because of the rate of fire. The Springfield is slow but packs better damage than the Stingray.
The developers really did an amazing job giving so much diversity to the guns, given that RE4 has a lot of replayability.
Sentinel 9 is basically SG09-R DLC with high ammo capacity and faster fire rate but slight less damage on Max Power.
Red9 ia best on Original but way worse in Remake because they nefred damage and accuracy massively to prevent people cheesing with this gun. Blacktail become even more favorable because of high damage, less space used and high accuracy but lack of ammo capacity.
Matilda is good only when you have Stock and Exclusive upgrade since it replace SMG with extremely high rate of fire. As for Punisher, this will easily pierce enemies and any kind of Shields and Armors especially on late games where enemies become tougher and using armors to deflect non-piercing armors.
My personal handgun always Sentinel 9 because it is easy to use with high capacity ammo and Exclusive 5× Critical Hit Rate making them easier to beat Mini-bosses (Brute, Salvador and Bella Sisters)
this, a good choice, the critical also carries over to the melee, SG or S9 are best handguns in the remake
If you are personally unlucky don't bother with the Sentimental 9, it won't critical hit on headshots even with the 5X bonus.
Thank you for doing this because I’m at a crucial point in the game. I just sold the skull, Shaker. ( maxed out ) and got the riot gun (2-maxed out ) and I wanted to do the same thing with the sentinel nine, which I maxed out but I didn’t wanna do it until I fully upgraded the red nine ( attachment etc Heard you could turn it into like a sub machine gun )- but if I can use the laser sight piece on the red nine going to sell that to the merchant ASAP so I can start upgrading the Red 9 plus I get a bunch of handgun bullets. I need to make sure I got the Best bang for the buck lol thanks again !
the punisher its my favorite with laser
Great Vid. Love every pistol but Still never use anything other than SG-09 R for that Critical Hit Rate.
Great video !
The music note stucked in my mind
Are you considering the SG with the 5x critical rate?
Bases on the bullets it takes and the damage per shot, this enemy has 720-750 hp
It's probably just me, but I hate the way Leon's hand glitches through the back of the SG 09R handgun. I'm surprised that no one at Capcom noticed
Dude all pistols sound the same even tuned up, that's a fail, the Red9 sounded soo badass in the og game...
LEEE HE CONTRATOO… AIIIIEESSSTAAAAA
COMPARISON :- RED 9 VS BLACKTAIL
ANSWER:- * LESS RECOIL WITH BEST AIM THEN GO FOR BLACKTAIL AND WHICH HAS GREAT SHOT SOUND
* HIGH DAMAGE AND MADE FOR PROFESSIONALS WHO CAN HANDLE RECOIL
The baby Bloom weapons VS the GIGAchad LAZER WEAPONS!
Poor zombie. Being a test subject by getting shot for all types of basic and max handguns.
Ganado*
Blacktail kind suitable for Hunk...
Red 9 always ✌️🔥❤️
In displaying your examination windows of all weapons, I see you've maxed out AND upgraded the Exclusives for your Red9 and Blacktail!
The last four pistols, though maxed out, don't have the upgraded Exclusives on them.
Thank you for sharing your insight on all pistols' damage. However, based on your intention for this video and to have a clear, direct, and fair comparison, the last four pistols must also have upgraded Exclusives.
i tried all the handguns and leon's is the best for me especially on controller, easy recoil and a laser sight + 5x critical hit rate
How does the critical affect?, I did not understand it
@@MLL65 when you score a hit shot there is a shot that it does 5x the damages. With the 5x rate it get proceed more frequently.
In the game says that if you wait while you are aiming, the crosshair get smaller and in that point you have more critical chance and power. Idk if that's true...
Yes it is, but it gets tiring to waiting to close everytime, it always opens again if you move Leon or your aim.
@@joaolima7131 yeah it's annoying, a little move and you have to wait again.
Laser completely remove this and just straight up permanent crit chance increase, that's why base hg and sentinel 9 olis so strong
The burst fire Matilda is fun asf to use
I used Red9 cause i really liked the damaged it had back in 2004 but actually here the blacktail is better,Faster reaload faster rate but for the run of only knives and guns i suggest to use matilda with cat ears
my favorite is sentinel nine max, the critical hit is insane, 1 hit pistol can equal to 1 hit sniper
For bosses or great enemies = Red 9
For Comum Ganados = 1⁰ pistol with Especial + Laser = 35% Crit Hate = Inumerous Head Exploding
Blacktail is a ladys gun
Blacktail is the weapon of choice for all low testosteron having soyboys.
Matilda w/ Stock all fucking day.
Fr and with cat ears to 🥶🥶🥶 definitely one of my top 3 weapons lol😂😂
I use Silver Ghost just to synchronized it with cutscene and canon story lol
Im wondering what gun to use for Seperate ways professional, they only have Red 9, Punisher, and Blacktail
I was gonna go with blacktail but i feel like the laser sight on punisher will help me with getting acurate shots, theres also a charm that lets ada use her hookshot to remove enemy shields so i wouldn't need the punisher for that
Ganado : Why always me 😂
I'll always stick with the Red9 as it's quite obvious that this handgun's a literal hand cannon compared to the others.
Well if you are only comparing damage yes, but blacktail beats the red9 in every other aspect. Inventory space, reload, fire rate for one bullet
@@brunoturossi Most people would want more damage as all those you mentioned don't count for shit.
@@NakedSnake1836 You are wrong! Fire rate means more damage per second friend, this is why in the OG the TMP was godly against bosses
Pistol only run maybe (I would still choose sentinel for the crit bonus)..... Everything else it takes up too much inventory space especially with the stock. Blacktail FTW. It barely out damages it and it takes up a third of room.
@@brunoturossi Then explain why most playthroughs have people prefer using the Red9 as their main handgun compared to the Blacktail.
The sentinel nine is the best one in my opinion
i just do it arnie style: killer 7, unload clip.
Sentinel Nine is such a beauty
Ну, первый пистолет из-за х5 крита может шотнуть даже, так что указывать строго определённое количество выстрелов некорректно
Just ganna leave a comment you also gatta see that if you let the retical close all the way it does more damage
No it won't. In RE4R, focusing your reticle will only give you slightly higher crit chance and stagger.
wait does the max level include the upgrade ticket?
Blacktail user here
Red 9 supremacy
It Seems more easy to Hit the targets with the Punisher. At least for me.
Love red9 even in the remake.
Sentinel 9 maxed out with laser sight for the win can’t tell you how many one shot headshots I get very frequently
Red9 + stock >>>>>>>>>>>>>
warning this is very long read at your own risk and don't jike about becuase i warned youPunisher underated not saying it's the best pistol but it's he best values pistol you can save loads of ammo I highly suggest useing body shots for crowds because heads are pretty hard to line up not only that in the castle it'll be no work and the laser sight is super good low recoil high accuracy ammo persevering that's a true monster there sure the damage may be low trust me though that penetration will act as if the punisher had no bad damage although maybe if they added a attachment that increase the punisher dmg slightly that's be cool but brokenly overpowered overall it's a fairly balanced pistol Andi t help you alot in castle section highly recommend if your struggle in the castle due to those shield guys it's not that great it late game due its low dmg but it'll save up until mid game
I'm annoyed that all the pistols actually sound the same or very similiar.
I hate the black tail cause of that damn shooting range
What is the sentinel 9? Where do you get that
A paid DLC handgun.
@@heavymetalmixer91 lame
What mode is this in?
I still counted the shots even tho they displayed lmao 😂😂
I hate how every gun sounds the same, shotguns, rifles too
is tested on professional diff?
Your content ›››››❤
Please review tmp and etc 🙏
missed perfect opportunity to show reload speed.
i use blacktail its my favourite
Capcom remove red dot shigt from red 9 to make player love another handgun
SG09 w/ LASER >>>>>>>>>>
* 5x more chance for critical shots (not removing heads, multiplying the damage).
** 5x more chance for critical works to kicks
Aim “closed” have more chance to stop, stag and critical than aim “opened”. With laser, can consider always closed.
Sentinel Nine is the GOAT
Red9: A Powerful of handgun and have a stock to reduce recoil.
It's a nice gun, stranger.
Blacktail: A Powerful but superior handing and fast firing.
Original: 3x2
Remake: 2x2
SG-09: Increasing 50% Critical hit rate for headshot and one headshot to made easy to kill all ganados.
One shot kill!
Ganados: ☠️*DEAD*☠️
Matilda: Like a Resident evil 2 and ammo capacity x2 but just like the Original game in Matilda with 3-burst shot.
Original game: beat the Normal difficulty or above.
Sentinel Nine: Laser sight is activated and got Critical hit rate.
Punisher: Piercing ability can x5 penetration power on enemies.
Wise choice, mate.
Red9 in the OG... lol cause enemies are easier to kill. LMAO.
And once again the red9 reigns supreme. The highest value per shot is crucial in high difficulties with tanky enemies and flimsy knives.
But it is too slow and not good against bosses. [They will kill you before you kill them]
Blacktail all day. Damage is only slightly lower than the Red 9, but it has higher rate of fire, faster reload, and less recoil. Because of all that, it has the highest possible DPS of any semi-auto pistol. The Matilda could technically do more under burst fire, but that's extremely impractical.
@@imcnblu Might wanna avoid Red9 in the remake.
@@MLL65 Most don't use pistols for bosses
The blacktails DPS beats the red 9 any day. The red9 is to slow are DPS and fire rate to slow make it worth using.
SG or S9 all the way
I finish professional with punisher
Sentinel nine is the best hand gun the accuracy and handling and power is why it's my favorite the other ones are okay
Why Enemies not attack ?
Blacktail !!!
Ran the whole game, with the Matilda and my cat ears, best combo in the game!!! "Handgun and Knife" run was a breeze!
Minha preferida nesse remake, Blacktail
Capcom needs to buff the punisher. Right now the punisher handgun is a complete dog crap.
Shield enemies will never be a problem again. It has its uses
Compare all weapon smg please🙏
