Ok, so for my first project- im going to make he magnum form the pep site-

I realize i need to resize it, but Im curious,

1) what type of paper should I buy?
2)What kind of glue should I buy/use?
3) What kind of resin should I buy?

$) how much will all of it cost approx.?
 
110lb Cardstock.

There are many, but from experiece, Hot glue is the best, as you can melt it and reposition it if you make a mistake.
just go and get a glue gun for $15 from any hardware store chances are it will come with glue sticks.

Bondo have their own brand of resin, and people seem to be using it properly here, so over in US, i would say Bondo Brand.

as for prices?

A whole suit (with no recourses wasted) could cost approximately $500, maybe more maybe less.

For the handgun, $50 should be enough for 2 handguns

It would do you some good to read the stickies. Don't even think of starting a project without reading them first.
