Tomb Raider is the 1996 British videogame developed by now-defunct CORE Design and published by EIDOS (Now part of Square Enix), released on PC and PlayStation and was the one that launched the Tomb Raider franchise. The game follows British archaeologist and explorer Lara Croft as she travels the world to find a mysterious artifact called the Scion.


Handguns

Browning Hi-Power

A pair of nickel plated Browning Hi-Power pistols serve as Lara's main weapons, with unlimited ammo and, like most of the weapons she uses on the game, an infinite magazine size. Not particularly powerful, they are undoubtedly chambered in the standard 9x19mm rounds, since official advertisements for the game describe a "pair of 9mms as [Lara's] passport". At the time, the Browning Hi-Power was the standard-issue pistol of the British Army, which suggests Lara may have used this pistol for the patriotic touch. Higher detailed models that show the Hi-Power's unique slide design and slide release are seen in art work for the game.

IMI Desert Eagle Mark I

A pair of Desert Eagles called "Magnums" in-game are more powerful than the Browning Hi-Powers but have limited ammo.

Submachine Guns

Ingram MAC-10

A pair of MAC-10s, incorrectly called "Uzis" in-game, are more powerful and faster firing than the Browning Hi-Powers but like the Desert Eagles, have limited ammo.

Shotguns

Shotgun

A pistol gripped pump-action shotgun that can't be dual wielded and must be fired while standing still. It seems to not be based on any particular pump-action shotgun.
