Metal Gear Solid Delta Snake Eater remains entirely faithful to the original Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, including the immense details and alternate cutscenes available. After an epic duel with a living legend, Snake and EVA have one last threat to worry about: Ocelot. Ocelot will force Snake into a duel, where he must decide on which revolver to pick up. The player's choice between the left and right revolver in MGS Delta Snake Eater determines the reward they get, and the mini-cutscene that plays. Below, players can view all four of them to see what they missed out on, along with what ending they should choose.

Should You Pick the Left or Right Revolver in MGS Delta Snake Eater?
Players should pick up the SAA on the Right if they want to permanently unlock the SAA revolver as a weapon to use on future playthroughs. Any other choice will unlock a cutscene, but nothing else. The SAA Revolver does make future playthroughs fun, as Snake can spin the weapon with tricks and even impress Ocelot during a boss fight with the weapon. While each cutscene plays out a tad differently, players won't be missing out on anything substantial.
The decision players make in this mini-scene will not impact the ending in any possible way.
