I was going to say, on a first runthrough of scenario B you may not even have the shotgun/grenade launcher by then (It's in the main lobby, which it's possible not to have visited by that point). If you do though, you can also pick up shotgun shells/acid rounds from the safe in the west office which make it easier. It's definitely doable.

I just question the wisdom in doing all that for a measly 30 rounds of pistol ammo. Later on when he drops better ammo it's definitely worth making the trade (for Leon at least, not convinced that Claire gets a good deal most of the time) but that early on those shotgun shells and acid rounds matter a lot.

Right, I asked earlier but got no answers.

Favourite weapon guys?

I'm overly fond of the custom shotgun and the Spark Shot in RE2. Having a shotgun makes you feel safer in any of the games, but the RE2 custom one is something special. Also, those holes in the camera if you aim at it. I also hadn't realised that the Spark Shot couldn't be aimed upwards. I brought both it and all of my grenade rounds with me to the last Birkin fight in the A scenario, and was kind of surprised that I couldn't aim it at him while he was on top of the tanks. I guess it would make the game far too easy (moreso than it is already) though, given that it's so good at killing Birkin in his other A scenario forms.

Revolver Magnums are also superior to semi-auto Magnums too. I also love it when the magnum has so little ammo available for it, because it's a really different kind of fear to have a really powerful item with you that's worthless since you have such limited ammo for it.

If your answer to this question is the RE2 Bowgun, seek help.
