The HD remaster will be a better candidate for the textures of the M1897's engravings; they're much clearer, with deer and birds easily made out. It's a beautiful rendition of the ol' trenchgun that I'd love to own in reality myself.They vary in price. Standard models are the cheapest, Jill models are the next easiest to find followed by either of the Barry models and the Chris model. The Wesker model is ridiculously expensive now, well over $1000 at least. RE4R Leon Silver Ghost is still easily attainable since it's fairly recent.
As for the other iconic guns, like RE2 Leon's VP-70, Claire's Browning HP, the M870 Shotgun as seen in both RE2R and RE4R are pretty rare, for example. I am custom building my own RE3 STI Eagle 6.0 and RE1make Richard Aiken Assault Shotgun (Customized Benelli M3). I should post a picture of the ones I have so far some time soon.
The rarest one I'm trying to get is the Winchester M1897 Riot Gun 20 Inch Ver. 2 as it's the exact gun seen in RE1make. I even plan to commission a custom metal engraving for the receiver after I find an artist to interpret the low-res design on the damn thing lol

Tokyo Marui make the Samurai Edge in various forms; fully licensed, very lovely quality despite being of plastic construction. The best gas blowbacks on the market. They're becoming uncommon in my experience though plentiful on the preowned market. TM have also made Leon's Desert Eagle in RE2, RE2 novel AND RE2 remake forms, as well as his recent USP and Sentinel 9. To top it all off, they made spring powered sets of the Ashford gold lugers back when Code Veronica X was released.How much are the airsoft replicas? It would probably be easier to buy those? And probably cheaper?
I converted an actual M9 Beretta to Jill’s Stars handgun and even without the custom Kendo engravings, it’s still the single most expensive firearm I’ve ever owned.
Tanaka offered Umbrella branded .44 magnums to coincide with the release of RE0.
Alternatively, WE Tech make full metal copies of the Marui Samurai Edge which are cheaper, but haven't got the quality. I own two and both have common problems. Very ideal if you don't plan on using them much.
VP-70s were only made by Tanio Koba and are the airsoft holy grail. Just wait for someone else to make one.
