Capcom announced its collaboration with airsoft gun manufacturer Tokyo Marui to release a replica of the Silver Ghost, Leon’s weapon in Resident Evil 4. This airsoft gun, the SG-09 R, features the main characteristics of Leon’s gun so that Resident Evil fans can purchase their own model of this iconic weapon. The SG-09 R airsoft gun will release in late March 2023 in Japan and cost 32,800 JPY, which amounts to around $243 USD.

The airsoft replica of Leon’s gun in Resident Evil 4 comes with a special magazine called Survive Magazine #18 and two extra magazines. The SG-09 R features the Kendo logo engraved on the right side of the gun just like in Resident Evil 4 and the same color scheme as Leon’s Silver Ghost. The left side of the pistol slide shows the serial number of the weapon to complete the look of this popular fictional weapon inspired by the H&K USP, S&W Sigma, and Ruger P85.

This is the first time I realize it looks pretty much like the pistol from HL2, which basically is a Heckler & Koch USP Match

Edit:
My bad, didn't read properly, it even has the H&K USP branding

Edit #2:
Seems like this gun was pretty popular in the early to mid 2000's. Lara Croft used them as well in Angel of Darkness & Legend.

It's also the gun Solid Snake gets in the Tanker chapter of MGS2, it has the flashlight attachment there.

Don't think you can have replica looking guns in UK :(

Just asked ChatGPT. This reads to me like it is at least doable if you really want to own a firearm.
In the United Kingdom, there are very strict laws regarding the possession of firearms. For most citizens in the UK, the possession of a semi-automatic handgun is prohibited unless they meet certain requirements and have a valid license.
To obtain such a license, a person typically must be at least 21 years old, apply for a Firearms Certificate with the local police force and demonstrate a good reason for possessing a firearm, such as hunting, sport shooting or professional use.
The applicant must also undergo a background check, which includes a criminal record check, medical examinations, and an assessment of family circumstances. In addition, firearm owners in the UK are required to ensure that their firearms are stored securely, such as in a specially designed gun cabinet that meets safety requirements.
It is important to note that firearm possession in the UK is highly regulated and is only permitted in limited circumstances. The laws can vary from region to region, so individuals interested in purchasing and possessing firearms should always check with their local authorities to learn about the applicable regulations and requirements.

You are right.
Such a beautiful and slick (without attachments) gun.
