All three of the main H&K USP variants carry more than 10 rounds per magazine, so its difficult to tell which kind she uses. | |||

The list of Personnel Weapons, weapons used by the JSSDF or Nerv, was compiled by The Internet Movie Firearms Database[1]. The firearms listed are from the End of Evangelion movie and the TV Series.
Handguns
Browning Hi-Power Mark III
The Browning Hi-Power[2] is the standard-issue sidearm used by JSSDF commandos during their invasion of Nerv during Episode 25'.
CZ-75
The CZ-75B[3] is used by Gendo at the end of Episode 25' when he shoots Ritsuko.
Glock 17
The Glock 17[4] is used by Nerv personnel. Hyuga retrieves a Glock 17 from his desk when the JSSDF starts to invade Nerv HQ, but like most Nerv personnel, he has no weapons experience beyond basic training, so he nervously checks it by saying "safety off" aloud to himself. Since the Glock 17 has no external safety, it's curious as to how he accomplished this. The answer may be that it is one of the End of Evangelion English dub translation's notorious script problems: The original Japanese version apparently doesn't have Hyuga say an equivalent line to this (unless there's an outside chance he mutters it under his breath) and it appears that the English dub just added in "safety off" to match his lip-flaps when he was talking.[5]
Heckler & Koch USP
Major Misato Katsuragi's gun is the HK USP[6]. She brandishes it several times during the series. Note that Misato's USP has a rubber grip on the handle. Misato fires 10 rounds in succession when fighting the JSSDF soldiers. All three of the main H&K USP variants carry more than 10 rounds per magazine, so its difficult to tell which kind she uses.
R-92 Revolver
Ritsuko uses a Russian R-92 Revolver as seen during Episode 25' when she points it at Gendo (and Rei Ayanami standing behind him) as she is about to cause the Magi to self destruct.
