Do you like the playground of guns and weapons in Resident Evil 3 ?
Inside this guide you will find instructions on how to get every weapon and every possible upgrade in the game.
By following this step-by-step guide you will also get three trophies.
A trophy is linked to finding all the weapons in the game, a trophy is linked to finding a single weapon and a trophy is linked to finding all the weapons and all the upgrades.
Let's see together what these weapons are and how you can then find the upgrades on a case-by-case basis.
Gun C-19
Where to find it: This gun is obtainable by playing with Jill. To find this gun you will need to analyze the body outside the Bar Jack, just after seeing our comrade Brad get bitten by a zombie.
C-19 Pistol Upgrades
Optical Viewfinder (Pistol): This enhancement is located at Downtown Upper Walkway Safe Room (2F), which is a room with a safe. To open the safe you will need to know the combination, i.e. 9-1-8. To open the safe, you will need to slide the knob in one direction nine times, in the opposite direction one time and then in the opposite direction eight times more. This will open the safe and give the player the chance to upgrade the case.
Extended Loader (Gun): The external magazine will be obtained by opening a supply case after shooting down the nemesis for the first time. The crate will be left by the monster once and it will kneel down as a sign of surrender. The best way to get the upgrade and shoot down the nemesis for the first time is to do it in Downtown Subway Power Substain (1F), after reactivating the power. When you see the nemesis knocking down the wall prepare yourself with a single fragmentation grenade to throw at it, such a blow will hurt it so much that it will drop the case and leave you alone.
Thin Barrel (Gun: This power-up is achieved by obtaining the econda supply box tied to the second time you take down the Nemesis. The best way to do it is at the Downtown Donut Shop (1F), just after the dedicated cutscene. Also in this case our advice is to throw a grenade quickly, so as to inflict massive damage and succeed in the feat; if you don't have grenades try to use, to your advantage, an explosive barrel.
M3 rifle
Where to find it: this beautiful combat rifle is located inside Downtonn Subway Office (1F), inside a crate that will need pincers to be opened.
M3 rifle upgrades
Tactical Stock: This upgrade is achieved by solving the kite puzzle inside the safe room at Downtown Subway Station. To solve the puzzle you will need to use the pick to get the green jewel from the pretty box inside the Downtown Toy Uncle Store.
Modification for semi-automatic fire: This upgrade is located within a location that players in the Resident Evil 2 remake are familiar with, the Downtown Gun Shop Kendo (1F).
Cartridge: This upgrade is obtained inside the Underground Storage (1F), in the area with the maze to solve one fuse at a time. Behind one of the hydraulic lifts you will find the cartridge.

Hot Dogger
The hot dogger is a knife that costs 7200 P and is a weapon developed by the umbrella to deal with zombies. Apparently it is a simple knife that has the ability to hold heat for a long time; when the blade is hot it can set fire to the enemies it touches inflicting extra damage.

By targeting the head/weaknesses this curious weapon reveals its full potential.
