The Magnum (マグナム magunamu?) is a weapon available in Resident Evil CODE:Veronica. It is identified as Colt Python.

Location[]

Firstly, the Empty Extinguisher must be placed in the Item Box as Claire, then, when the player reaches the experiment underwater storage room as Chris, they can refill it to become the Extinguisher. Afterwards, it can be used at the chemical weapons storage to obtain the weapon.

Claire can also use the weapon if Chris places it in the Item Box before the character switch.

In the Very Easy difficulty available in Japanese versions of the game, it can be found in the Item Box at the start of the game by default.

Gameplay[]

As usual for the Resident Evil series, the Magnum is very powerful, usually killing and decapitating a zombie with a single shot. Unfortunately, its ammo is very scarce (there are only two ammo pickups throughout the entire game on Normal); thus, most players will want to save the Magnum for late-game boss battles, such as Alexia.

The Magnum also appears in the Battle Game as well, Chris Redfield has one with infinite ammunition in his inventory and Albert Wesker has a chance to find one with 6 rounds in the casino bar.
