There is a way to determine if you will get the submachine gun or the magnum. Look at the two herbs in front of the stairs in front of you at the start of the mini-game. If the colors are blue and green, you will get the magnum. If the colors are green and green, you will get the submachine gun. The submachine gun can do what the magnum can and requires a lot less ammunition. Green and green is highly recommended. If you want the magnum on the Leech Hunter mini-game, load your game on Disc 1 (only if you have passed the game once and have unlocked the Leech Hunter mini-game), then play the mini-game. You will see a Green Herb and a Blue Herb, indicating that the Magnum is there. If you want the Submachine gun, load your saved file with mini-game on Disc 2 and play the mini-game. You will see two Green Herbs, indicating that the Submachine gun is in the game.
