Yakuza 3 (JP: 龍が如く3 Ryuu ga Gotoku 3 lit. "Like a Dragon 3"), is a 2009 videogame by SEGA. It was released in English-speaking regions in March 2010. A remaster for PS4 was released in August 2018 in Japan and a year later worldwide. This was the first main Yakuza game to be released on the PS3, and is the first game to feature many of the firearm models that feature in later games.


The following weapons appear in the video game Yakuza 3:
SPOILERS.jpg WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS!



Handguns

Makarov PM

A Makarov PM is used by antagonist Tetsuo Tamashiro. The barrel is extended compared to a regular Makarov (a feature of the Baikal-442, a Canadian-imported variant of the Makarov), and the hammer is shaped differently. It also appears as an in-game weapon with the name "Shoddy Pistol."

Kiryu with the "Shoddy Pistol." The red aura indicates that he is in climax heat mode, meaning he can probably do some really cool heat action with it.

Norinco Type 54

Tojo Clan Sixth Chairman Daigo Dojima is armed with a Norinco Type 54, a Tokarev TT-33 clone that is popular among the yakuza. He attempts to shoot CIA Agent Joji Kazama (known as Joji Fuma in the original western PS3 release), but Kazama outdraws him.

SIG Pro

A SIG Pro is seen being used by CIA Agent Andre Richardson, the series's first white character. This gun has a number of custom touches, including wooden grips and a ported barrel and slide.

SIG-Sauer P226/H&K USP

A hybrid of a SIG-Sauer P226 and Heckler & Koch USP is seen in the hands of Joji Kazama; it is referred to in-game as a "CZ-75", despite not really resembling it in any way.

Shotguns

Baikal MP-133

The Baikal MP-133 appears as a player-usable weapon under the name "Broken M1985." This moniker is probably a result of the less-than-top-notch quality of this particular model of shotgun. For the purposes of game balance, it only holds 3 rounds in the modelled 4-round magazine. A sawn-off version also appears as the "Shoddy Shotgun."

Rifles

Unknown Rifle

A rather strange looking set of rifles, with top sight and brown furniture similar to an Armalite AR-10, but clearly in a smaller calibre with an odd front grip, appear in the weapon dealer's Tardis-like van. They additionally have cosmetic similarities to a prototype of the Howa Type 64, but this is likely nothing more than coincidence.

Mounted Weapons

General Electric M134 Minigun

A General Electric M134 Minigun mounted on a CIA UH-60 "Black Hawk" helicopter is used to send Kazama Family patriarch Osamu Kashiwagi to the big man in the sky. Amazingly however, despite having been shot by a Minigun, Kashiwagi survives for long enough to tell Kiryu his last request. It goes without saying that a considerable amount of artistic licence was used in this scene. In actual fact, the likelihood of Kashiwagi, or Kiryu for that matter, not being blasted into human casserole meat by a 3000-round-per-minute 7.62-mm Minigun at a range of about 20 m is remote at best. The lack of a flash suppressor shows that this is an original GE model, rather than the Dillon Aero or General Dynamics variants one would expect to find mounted to a Black Hawk.
