Silent Hill 3 Hints
Handgun
1 of 2: The handgun is the first ranged weapon you'll find in Silent Hill 3. It's reasonably strong and easy to use, but it doesn't have much stopping power. There's relatively abundant ammo for it, though, so you'll probably end up using it for many enemies. The handgun uses Handgun Ammo, which comes in small, orange boxes scattered throughout the game.
2 of 2: The handgun can be found in the clothes store in the mall. Heather will pick it up during a cut-scene, so there's no need to search for it.
