Girardi

The Girardi ES9 is Jason Duval's personal sidearm, and one of the few GTA 6 weapons Rockstar has named in print. It was announced with the Ultimate Edition, which ships a personalized, engraved version of the same pistol rather than a different weapon.

Where this entry comes from

Rockstar named this weapon itself, in the Ultimate Edition and pre-order announcement. That makes it one of the very few GTA 6 guns whose name comes from Rockstar rather than from the community. The real-world firearm behind it is identified by the firearms community as the Beretta 92FS. The Ultimate Edition ships an engraved variant. The engraving is reported to read "Sua Sponte", the motto of the US Army Ranger Regiment, which fits Jason Duval's ex-military background.
