(→Ardesa 1871: Having seen the movie, I'm no longer confident of the ID as an Ardesa repro. It could even be a set of antique Le Page style pistols. Will need to wait for DVD captures.) |

[[Daniel Craig]] returns for the third time as Agent 007, who upon his return from what appeared to be his demise on a previous mission, is given the assignment of tracking down a cyberterrorist who threatens to reveal the identities of deep cover agents. The 2012 film was directed by [[:Category:Sam Mendes|Sam Mendes]], who previously directed Craig in ''[[Road to Perdition]]''. The cast includes [[Javier Bardem]], [[Ralph Fiennes]], and [[Naomie Harris]] in addition to [[Judi Dench]], returning for her seventh outing in the role of M. |

| − | + | ==Walther PPK== | |
| − | ==Walther PPK | + | James Bond ([[Daniel Craig]]) carries the [[Walther PPK]] as his sidearm in the film. Field Agent Eve ([[Naomie Harris]]) also uses a PPK during the film's opening chase. When Q ([[Ben Whishaw]]) issues Bond his new pistol, he refers to it as a "Walther PPK/S, nine-millimeter short" and states that the gun is coded to Bond's palm print so that only he can fire it. This palm print-reading gun is lost in Macau, after which Bond replaces it with a standard PPK. This is later used by M ([[Judi Dench]]) in the finale when Silva's men attack Skyfall Lodge. As M fires the PPK at Silva's men, she remembers how bad of a shot she is. |

Gareth Mallory ([[Ralph Fiennes]]) and Eve ([[Naomie Harris]]) use them during the inquiry board attack, picked up from fallen police officers, as do several of Silva's henchmen on his island, one of which Bond commandeers. Patrice ([[Ola Rapace]]) uses a suppressed Glock 17 in Shanghai. | |

This handgun is loaded with "depleted uranium" rounds (rather strange, as DU is usually only used in aircraft and tank rounds. A 9mm DU round would offer little armor piercing capability on account of its low velocity and mass). He initially uses the pistol with a 100-round Beta-C drum magazine, but later switches to extended 33-round ones during the train chase. The Glock in question has a completely enclosed slide and not the cutout version of the 18C. |

Skyfall is the 23rd entry in the official James Bond film series and marked the 50th anniversary of the premiere of Dr. No, the first feature film in the EON-produced series. Daniel Craig returns for the third time as Agent 007, who upon his return from what appeared to be his demise on a previous mission, is given the assignment of tracking down a cyberterrorist who threatens to reveal the identities of deep cover agents. The 2012 film was directed by Sam Mendes, who previously directed Craig in Road to Perdition. The cast includes Javier Bardem, Ralph Fiennes, and Naomie Harris in addition to Judi Dench, returning for her seventh outing in the role of M.
The following weapons were used in the film Skyfall:
WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS!
Handguns
Walther PPK
James Bond (Daniel Craig) carries the Walther PPK as his sidearm in the film. Field Agent Eve (Naomie Harris) also uses a PPK during the film's opening chase. When Q (Ben Whishaw) issues Bond his new pistol, he refers to it as a "Walther PPK/S, nine-millimeter short" and states that the gun is coded to Bond's palm print so that only he can fire it. This palm print-reading gun is lost in Macau, after which Bond replaces it with a standard PPK. This is later used by M (Judi Dench) in the finale when Silva's men attack Skyfall Lodge. As M fires the PPK at Silva's men, she remembers how bad of a shot she is.

Bond fires the PPK during firearms qualification. Note that when Bond gets mad because he can no longer shoot and empties his PPK into the target, he fires the pistol 9 times, one more than the capacity of a PPK (although this would be possible with the .22 LR version). The target shows eleven bullet holes, two more than Bond fired and three more than the capacity of a PPK.
The special indicator on the pistol flashes green, allowing Bond to fire the gun. This kind of security measure was also seen in the film Licence to Kill.

Glock 17
Raoul Silva/Tiago Rodriguez (Javier Bardem) and several of his henchmen use Glock 17 pistols during the inquiry board shootout while disguised as police officers. The Glock 17 is also the standard sidearm of the SCO19 Firearms Officers and armed police officers at the public inquiry attack. Gareth Mallory (Ralph Fiennes) and Eve (Naomie Harris) use them during the inquiry board attack, picked up from fallen police officers, as do several of Silva's henchmen on his island, one of which Bond commandeers. Patrice (Ola Rapace) uses a suppressed Glock 17 in Shanghai.
Glock 18
Patrice (Ola Rapace) uses a Glock 18 when he engages in a shootout with Bond and Eve in Turkey. This handgun is loaded with "depleted uranium" rounds (rather strange, as DU is usually only used in aircraft and tank rounds. A 9mm DU round would offer little armor piercing capability on account of its low velocity and mass). He initially uses the pistol with a 100-round Beta-C drum magazine, but later switches to extended 33-round ones during the train chase. The Glock in question has a completely enclosed slide and not the cutout version of the 18C.

Percussion Cap Ardesa 1871 Dueling Pistols
During a confrontation with James Bond (Daniel Craig) on the island, Former Station H agent Raoul Silva (Javier Bardem) is seen taking out a one of his reproduction Percussion Cap Ardesa 1871 Dueling Pistols and challenges Bond to knock a shot glass off a person's head with it. Silva also is seen holding the pistol.
Steyr M9-A1
Former Station H Agent Raoul Silva (Javier Bardem) carries a Steyr M9-A1 during the climax of the film, given to him by one of his men. M (Judi Dench) is also seen handling Silva's M9-A1 during the climax. A Steyr M9-A1 is also briefly seen being used by Severine's Bodyguard (Roger Yuan) at the Macau casino.

Submachine Guns
Heckler and Koch MP7A1

Rifles
Heckler & Koch HK416 D10RS
Raoul Silva's (Javier Bardem) henchmen use Heckler & Koch HK416 assault rifles during the attack on Skyfall Lodge. Two are also used by James Bond (Daniel Craig) after disarming multiple henchmen in the same scene.

Olympic Arms K23B Tactical
Eve (Naomie Harris) uses an Olympic Arms K23B Tactical with a FAB defense "GL-Shock" stock, a smooth match-styled handguard, and a red dot sight during the train chase sequence in Turkey. If you look close enough, you can see the birdcage flash hider is up side down.

This image reveals that the M16A2-style birdcage flash hider is on upside down (also noteworthy is that the flash hider is an A2 muzzle device; most movie AR-15 variants feature the M16A1 style birdcage flash hider, since cinematographers want to see the "starburst" flash pattern on camera).
M4A1 Carbine
MI6 Security Officers stationed at the agency's underground backup headquarters carry M4A1 carbines.

AKMS
When M watches the BBC newscast, one of the terrorists at the execution of MI6 agent is seen Kalashnikov with folding stock, most likely an AKMS.

Custom Sniper Rifle
Patrice (Ola Rapace) uses a custom bolt action suppressed sniper rifle when assassinating a target in Shanghai. Patrice can be seen working the bolt, but during a fight, the rifle appears to be fired semi-automatically.

Anderson Wheeler 500 NE Double Rifle
During the assault on Skyfall Lodge, James Bond (Daniel Craig) uses his deceased father's Anderson Wheeler Double Rifle chambered in .500 Nitro Express. Anderson Wheeler is a London-based maker of luxury rifles and shotguns whose custom made double rifles are also available in calibers from .375 to .600. Bond's depiction of recoil is akin to that of a nail gun, despite the mammoth cartridge. Bond casually discards it when it runs out of ammunition.
Shotguns
12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun
Kincade (Albert Finney), gamekeeper of the Skyfall Estate, carries a 12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun. In preparation for impending the attack on Skyfall Lodge, he saws down the barrel to achieve better close-quarters usability.

Aston Martin Machine Guns
Bond utilizes machine guns mounted underneath the lights of his customized DB5 when Silva's men attempt to storm Skyfall Lodge. The machine guns are a homage to the earlier Bond film Goldfinger, where the Aston Martin driven by Bond had the same armaments.

While Bond was seen winning a DB5 in Casino Royale (2006), the vehicle seen here isn't the same one (The Casino Royale DB5 was left-hand drive, while this one is right-hand drive). This DB5's machine guns and other gadgets are more reminiscent of the car seen in Goldfinger, where the MI6-issued Aston Martin driven by Bond had the same armaments. The license plate as well reads BMT 216A, another reference to Goldfinger.
