The Sign of Four is a Canadian 2001 made for TV detective movie, based on the famous novel by Arthur Conan Doyle. It is directed by Rodney Gibbons and stars Matt Frewer as Sherlock Holmes and Kenneth Welsh as Dr. Watson. The movie is the second installment in series of four Sherlock Holmes fims starring Frewer and Welsh.
The following weapons were used in the film The Sign of Four:
Revolvers
Forehand & Wadsworth
Sherlock Holmes (Matt Frewer) carries a compact top-break revolver, as like as in other movies of the film series. It appears to be a Forehand & Wadsworth revolver, identified by its smooth front side of the frame, different from more common Smith & Wesson or Iver Johnson models.
Bodeo M1889
Dr. Watson (Kenneth Welsh) also surrenders his revolver to Inspector Jones. The revolver is seen unclear but it seems to be a Bodeo M1889, likely same gun that was used by Watson in the first film of the series.
Webley RIC
A Webley RIC New Model is used by Inspector Jones (Michel Perron).
Webley Bulldog
John Small (Edward Yankie) (same character as Jonathan Small of the original novel) uses a Webley Bulldog during the shootout on the river pier. Holmes correctly call Small's revolver "a 5-shot Bulldog".
Rifles
Martini-Henry Rifle
During the shootout on river pier, police constables are armed with full-lenght Martini-Henry Rifles.
Enfield Pattern 1853
The opening scene, that tells the story of the treasure of Agra, is set during the Indian Rebellion of 1857 and shows British soldiers armed with Enfield Pattern 1853 percussion cap rifled muskets.
