The Heavy Handgun is a Blue Class weapon that appears in both Manhunt games.

Its performance is similar to the Light Handgun, having less ammo capacity (only 9 rounds, where as the Light Handgun has 15), but being more powerful, as well as much more accurate and being the handgun with the most range. The model of the weapon is a carbon copy of the IMI Desert Eagle Mk XIX, chambered in .50AE. It takes 3 body shots to kill a hunter with it.

It is a weapon used by Cerberus, Project Militia, The Bloodhounds, The Legion, S.W.A.T. and the Carcer City Police Department.

Trivia

• While the Heavy Handgun is a replica of the .50AE model, noted by its caliber and non-fluted barrel, the ammo capacity is 9 rounds, which is only correct for the .357 model.
• In the PS2 beta in Safe House, the Heavy Handgun was originally used instead of the Revolver. The Revolver was used in Best Friends instead.
• A flashlight variant of the Heavy Handgun was originally in Manhunt 2 but it was cut for unknown reasons.
