Handguns

Airsoft SIG-Sauer P226R (L105A2 stand-in)

Dr. Watson (Martin Freeman) owns a SIG-Sauer P226R pistol. The prop is actually a gas-powered airsoft replica manufactured by Tokyo Marui (hence why the finish and markings are mismatched). Given Watson's military background, this is likely meant as a stand-in for the SIG-Sauer L105A2, which was the British Army's standard issue sidearm at the time the first two seasons were filmed (it is currently being phased out in favor of the Glock 17). This same prop also shows up on several occasions in the hands of minor characters.

SIG-Sauer P226R 9x19mm, updated P226 with accessory rails, now the standard production version for the P226 (IMFDB still refers to this model as the "P226R" to distinguish between newer and older models).

File:Sherlock 103-01.jpg

Sherlock Holmes (Benedict Cumberbatch) nonchalantly fires at his living room wall out of boredom, breaking countless British and London gun laws and nearly every rule of gun safety in the process. This is a reference to the original Holmes's habit of using the wall of his apartment for target practice, except that, instead of sketching the letters "VR" (Victoria Regina) the modern Sherlock draws a smiley face.

Beretta 92FS Inox

Henry Knight (Russell Tovey) uses a Beretta 92FS Inox in S2E2 when he thinks that the gigantic hound is outside his home. Judging from the color and reflectivity of the finish, this is likely the Tokyo Marui airsoft replica of the 92FS Inox. Moriarty also uses a 92FS Inox during the second season finale.

M1911A1 (Unidentified Variant)

A hitman disguised as a repair man in S2E3 has a suppressed M1911A1 pistol stored in his tool box. Judging from the markings and the screws in the slide, this is likely a blank-firing replica.
