Never forget the killing power of the rotten egg, the greatest weapon for killing majini.

In all seriousness I'd say the Hydra, also from RE5, or the Red9 from RE4.
 
I have a pretty heavy lean towards pistols in shooters, and for Resident Evil in particular I've always been partial to Resident Evil 4's Red 9.

An elegant weapon for the refined government agent. The weapons so good I almost have to stop myself from using it every playthrough.

I've actually had that issue a few times. ^^; I've replayed RE4 so many times it makes me feel the need to mix it up a lot, but... it's really hard not to just go with Red 9.

Everytime I'm like "okay, I'll use the Punisher this time, it's a great pistol" then I see the Red9 in the shop for the first time and buy it without even realising it. It's a vicious cycle.

But oh, such a rewarding one. I often fail to avoid the Red 9 on a playthrough, but I never regret it.

If only the Broken Butterfly had more than two bullets available... maybe I'd use that a bit.
 
The shotgun is the workhorse of the arsenal once you get it, no matter the RE, it doesn't let you down.

I prefer the one from the RE1 Remake, solely on aesthetics.
 
The Red 9 by far. The original, mildly overpowered one, not the balanced, inaccurate Remake version.

barrys colt 45 magnum, one shot blows the head clean off. the rocket launcher doesnt even do that.plus the rocket launcher is slow to pick up And fire.

This is a huge problem with me as well. It even extends to watching other people play the game. x) All I can think is "No, stop spending money on the (handgun)! You're gonna get the Red9 soon!"

As for myself, no I didn't just spend a lot of time looking at every single gun in the series, why would you say that? But after literally doing just that, I'll have to say the Rifle (Springfield M1903A4) from RE4. It's not the best sniper rifle in the series, but it's my favorite. I have a weakness for old bolt action rifles, having owned and shot quite a few of them. It's no slouch in RE4 either. When fully upgraded it does almost as much damage as a magnum and it's best feature is it's reload animation. Hnnnghhh stripper clip, bolt sliding forward. It gives me life.

...Yeeeeah, I'm a sucker for the rifle too. The moment you get your hands on that thing and are immediately presented with, effectively, a shooting gallery of enemies... how can you not? ::eggmanlaugh
