>>23692389>Now can you explain why it's such an ugly-looking pistol?Product of the time, it was the world's first production polymer-framed handgun, it was made by Europeans, and it was the 70's (plenty of space age designs, think AUG)
>Also what the fuck is a cop doing with it?No fucking clue. The glock was out by this point (a lot of cops were still using revolvers and full-metal autoloaders during the 90's anyway), and the VP70 was out of production. The burst model that Leon uses would be even more rare, considering new-production machine guns were banned in the US in 86', which means he probably spent a lot of fucking money on it, or the RPD has some eccentric procurement guys.
