The following weapons appear in the video game Hitman: Absolution:

Handguns

American Derringer DA 38

The American Derringer DA 38 appears in game as the "Swiss Derringer." It is the weapon of choice for antagonist Blake Dexter's crippled son, Lenny "The Limp." On the mission "End of the Road", if Lenny is allowed to wander off, he will hide behind cover and begin to attack 47 with this gun, but he is a poor marksman and the player will likely not sustain significant damage. It can be collected and used by Agent 47 in Contracts mode.

American Derringer DA 38 - 9x19mm.

Agent 47 poses with Lenny's derringer.

Aiming the derringer reveals a long spanning desert and the rather useless derringer sights.

AMP Auto Mag Model 180

The AMP Auto Mag Model 180 appears in game as the "SA .44 Auto," and is the preferred weapon of psychopathic henchman Wade. A spider engraving is found on its handle, indicating it is Wade's personal weapon. 47 uses it as his starting weapon in the level "Birdie's Gift". It is also available in Contracts mode, where it starts out with a suppressor. This coupled with its greater damage and range, make it a decent alternative to the Silverballers.

AMP Auto Mag Model 180 - .44 AMP

47 prepares for a raid, complete with Auto Mag.

Bedecked in riot-gear, 47 doesn't seem to realize he's brought the wrong disguise for this level.

More posing, revealing the rather nice detail put into the Auto Mag.

AMT Hardballer

Agent 47's custom AMT Hardballers (often referred to as the "Silverballers") makes a re-appearance in the game. In the storyline mode, the Silverballers are always suppressed and dual wield; with the player having the freedom to toggle between dual or single and suppressed or unsuppressed. The Silverballers can be customized in the Contracts mode with upto three modifications simultaneously.

AMT Hardballer - .45 ACP.

AMT Hardballer - Weapons Info.

47 scans through the greenhouse, a Hardballer in each hand.

He soon poses in the ever fashionable "gardener" disguise, complete with his signature Hardballers.

Colt King Cobra

A snub nose Colt King Cobra appears in the game as the "Mustang Snub" and is the starting weapon for the Terminus Hotel level. It also is the standard sidearm for The Patriot's bodyguards in "Fight Night" plus a number of truck drivers and bar bouncers in the "Welcome to Hope" level. A special nickel plated version belonging to the corrupt sheriff of Hope, Skurky, is also present in the game, complete with sheriff's star in its wooden grip. This version cannot be collected during normal gameplay and has to be purchased in game for use in Contracts mode.

Colt King Cobra - .357 Magnum

Colt KC - Weapons Info.

On the trail of a lost girl, 47 goes full private detective, complete with a Colt snubnosed.

Colt KC - Skurky - Weapons Info.

While attempting to complete a contract, 47 checks the sights of Skurky's Colt KC.

Knowing that he has something to do, 47 and his Colt prepare to finish his job.

EAA Witness Limited Gold Team

The EAA Witness Limited Gold Team appears as the pre-order bonus weapon, "Bartoli Custom". A flashy and already suppressed sidearm, it is only usable in "Contracts" mode.

EAA Witness Limited Gold Team - 9x19mm

EAA Witness Limited Gold Team - Weapons Info.

Given that he has a race gun, 47 puts it and his nerves to the test at the gun range.

A fancy tuxedo fits surprisingly well with the EAA Witness.

Following some shooting, 47 remembers he has some contracts to complete.

Ruger Mk II

The Ruger Mk II appears complete with a external suppressor as the "Krugermeier 2-2". What the gun lacks in power, it makes up for with a larger magazine size than the Silverballer and decent accuracy, though it can only be used in "Contracts" mode.

Ruger Mk II - .22 LR.

Ruger Mk II - Weapons Info.

After his job is done, 47 goes plinking with his Ruger.

The fading sun illuminates 47's suit and his Ruger's finish.

The same from the other side, revealing the Ruger's externally threaded suppressor.

Rather oddly, the "Krugermeier" has no real mesh for being dropped, so if dropped will just stand on its suppressor rather awkwardly.

SIG-Sauer P226R

The SIG-Sauer P226R appears, called the "Jagd P22G" ingame. The base variant is nickel plated with wooden grips and is a common sight in most levels used by guards. A suppressed unit can be found in the Vixen club. Blake Dexter's secretary, Layla, carries a custom version that has soft gold plating upon the base scheme. If collected and used in Contracts mode, it will be equipped with a soft gold toned suppressor as well. The third version, is a highly modular version issued by the Agency to its operatives. This version is dark gun metal gray with yellow accents. It can be acquired and modified for the Contracts mode as a DLC, collected in the storyline or purchased ingame.

SIG-Sauer P226R - 9x19mm.

SIG-Sauer P226R - Layla

SIG-Sauer P226R - Layla - Weapons Info.

Agent 47 aims Layla's 226R after "liberating" it from the owner.

SIG-Sauer P226R - Agency - Weapons Info.

After a rather hectic night, 47 takes aim at a vintage tractor with the Agency P226R.

Again, now showing more of the P226R and the night sky.

Smith & Wesson Model 64

The Smith & Wesson Model 64 appears in game as the "Z&M Model 60". It is one of the preferred weapons of the Chicago PD, along with the Taurus 24-7. Blake Dexter's henchmen at the Terminus Hotel are all armed with it as well, and it is also the standard sidearm of the Hope Police Department and the officers at the Hope County Court House.

"Forget it Agent, it's Chinatown".

Sphinx 3000

The Sphinx 3000 appears as the "Swiss 3000" and has an incorrect 10-round magazine. The Swiss 3000 is a relatively uncommon gun in the game, only appearing in "The King of Chinatown" level in the hands of the drug dealer Snowman, carried by the bikers in the "Welcome to Hope" level and finally appearing in the gun shop in "Birdie's Gift". The Agency also issues a custom version which is carried by a limited number of its operatives, including Benjamin Travis's secretary Jade. Travis himself carries an unique version that has yellow grips with a soft gold plating. Travis's personal sidearm cannot be acquired during the storyline and has to be purchased ingame for use in Contracts mode.

Sphinx 3000 - 9x19mm

Sphinx 3000 - Weapons Info.

After doing his job, 47 checks out Snowman's Sphinx 3000.

Sphinx 3000 - Agency

While tying up all of the loose ends, 47 checks a pair of the Agency's specific Sphinx 3000's.

Taurus PT 24/7

Taurus PT 24/7's with stainless steel slides can be seen used by Chicago Police Officers. However Chicago PD are only allowed to use models from Beretta, Glock, Ruger, Smith & Wesson, or Springfield Armory and those firearms must be chambered 9mm, .40 S&W, or .45 ACP. Besides the Chicago PD, the PT 24/7 is used by Wade's henchmen in "Rosewood", the Hope Cougars in "Shaving Lenny", some guards in "Dexter Industries" and very rarely in the hands of ICA agents in "Operation Sledgehammer".

The Taurus Raging Bull is called the "Aries Charging Ram" in-game. The normal Taurus is only in two missions, carried by a few enemies in "Rosewood" and is found in the trunk of Wade's 1950 Mercury Coupe that 47 takes and uses in "End of the Line" There are also two special variants, one with pink grips found in "Birdie's Gift" and one called "The Absolver", the sidearm of Lasandra Dixon, the field leader of the Saints, can be collected, but the damage of the three weapons is the same. "The Absolver" is available for use in Contracts mode and features the ICA's logo on its grip.

"Zenith" (Deus Ex Pistol)

The Steiner-Bisley Zenith, lifted straight from Deus Ex: Human Revolution, appears as the "Zenith" through a specific DLC. A very formidible sidearm, comparable to the Silverballers, it is only useable within the "Contracts" mode.

Taking some time on the range, 47 and his Zenith breach one of the key rules of gun safety.

We at IMFDB are happy that the bathrobe is long enough to cover any or all naughty bits.

Submachine Guns

Brügger & Thomet AG SPP

The Brügger & Thomet AG SPP appears in game as the "Zug TMP." Its low damage is balanced out by its high rate of fire and ability to be dual wielded. A rather uncommon SMG, it's only used by some of Wade's men in "Rosewood" as well as the locked weapons area of "Fight Night". It can be collected and used in Contracts mode, where it starts out with a suppressor.

Other

Factory

The majority of "Dexter Industries" and "Death Factory" feature a mixture of mines, real and fake, but all are unusable to the player.

While disguised as a guard, 47 browses the Dexter selection, including a M18 Claymore, the top section of a Valmera 69 and TM-46 and a TMRP-6 mine.

More of the same, the Valmera 69 model is re-used for other generic landmines throughout the game.

In the "Death Factory", there is a test wall filled with defective mines, including more of the same, plus an undersized M15 mine and a few mortar rounds.

Guns Shop

The gunshop featured in "Birdie's Gift" features a number of displays containing both real guns the player can use, similar models only used for decoration and more low poly models that are repeated throughout the game.

47 does some browsing, finding Colt revolvers that cheap is a rare sight indeed.

Many of the long gun cases include both double guns and in this case, the M590.

A plush case fit for a king, or in this case, a M590 and a Sako TRG-42.

A standard wall rack filled with various low poly models.
