I think the picture you're showing is of the DAO model, since it has no safety, while the picture in the first image has a bobbed hammer and a decocking safety.

The markings on the slide are in slightly different places, but it might just be because of their trigger designs.

The decocking model is seen in The One as a mockeup up pistol and in Strange Days.

Wasn't a version of the Sphinx used as the leading actor's pistol in "The Puppet Masters"? I remember thinking at the time that, that was a curious choice for the lead's weapon.

Looks like an attempt at a USP. What game is this from?

Dark Sector. It's an oddity in that about half the weapons are based on one weapon but named after a completely different weapon [G36K called "Korbov TK6" after the Korobov series, both shotguns named after Armsel Striker variants even though neither is one, M14 called "VX Carbine" after the AS Val or VSS, etc]. I was thinking it was a USP, but I had an odd feeling it might actually be based on Leon's not-a-USP from Resident Evil 4.

The pistol's called the "Tekna 9mm" in game, incidentally.

Well Leon's not-a-USP is in fact based on the USP, and is labeled as such on the site, so I'd say it's safe to call it a USP, despite it's cruel bastardization.

I think it looks far more like a H&K Mark 23 Mod 0 pistol. Just look at the size and shape.
