Russian [[Nagant M1895]] revolver is used by Sherlock Holmes ([[Vasily Livanov]]) in the first episode of the first movie ("Acquaintance") when he "draws" on the wall by shooting Queen Victoria's monogram ("VR" - "Victoria Regina"). In this episode the revolver is incorrectly called ".38". In the first movie Nagant 1895 is also used by Inspectors Lestrade ([[Boryslav Brondukov]]) and Gregson ([[Igor Dmitriev]]). British constables also carry Nagants in various scenes. | Russian [[Nagant M1895]] revolver is used by Sherlock Holmes ([[Vasily Livanov]]) in the first episode of the first movie ("Acquaintance") when he "draws" on the wall by shooting Queen Victoria's monogram ("VR" - "Victoria Regina").

- Ep. 2: "Bloody Inscription" (based on A Study in Scarlet)

- The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson: The Twentieth Century Approaches (1986; two episodes, based on The Adventure of the Engineer's Thumb, The Adventure of the Second Stain, The Adventure of the Bruce-Partington Plans and His Last Bow)
The following weapons were used in the film The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson:
Revolvers
Nagant M1895
Russian Nagant M1895 revolver is used by Sherlock Holmes (Vasily Livanov) in the first episode of the first movie ("Acquaintance") when he "draws" on the wall by shooting Queen Victoria's monogram ("VR" - "Victoria Regina"). In this episode the revolver is incorrectly called ".38". In the first movie Nagant 1895 is also used by Inspectors Lestrade (Boryslav Brondukov) and Gregson (Igor Dmitriev). British constables also carry Nagants in various scenes.
British Constabulary revolver
A Belgian copy of Webley RIC revolver known as "British Constabulary" is Sherlock Holmes' main weapon in Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson and The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson. The same revolver is Dr. Watson's (Vitaly Solomin) main weapon in The Hound of the Baskervilles, The Treasures of Agra and The Twentieth Century Approaches. British Constabulary is also briefly seen in hands of Inspector Lestrade in "Hunt for the Tiger" episode and in one scene in The Hound of the Baskervilles. In the last case Lestrade uses Constabulary revolver instead of Reichsrevolver M1879 (which is seen in his hands before and after this scene) most likely because he had to fire at the Hound of the Baskervilles, and Reichsrevolver couldn't shoot due to some reason.
Webley Mk VI
A Webley Mk VI revolver is Sherlock Holmes' main weapon in The Hound of the Baskervilles, The Treasures of Agra and The Twentieth Century Approaches. This revolver is anachronism for 1880s-90s when the story takes place.
Webley Bulldog
Webley Bulldog revolver (most likely a Belgian copy) is seen in Sherlock Holmes' handbag in "The Master-Blackmailer" episode.
Smith & Wesson New Model No.3
In Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson and The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson Dr. Watson is armed with a Spanish or Belgian copy of Smith & Wesson New Model No.3. In one scene of the first episode of the first movie ("Acquaintance") Sherlock Holmes incorrectly called Watson's revolver "Webley-Scott .38 army model". The same revolver is briefly seen on Holmes' table in "Acquaintance" and in hands of Sherlock Holmes in "Bloody Inscription" and "The Master-Blackmailer" episodes.
Reichsrevolver M1879
Reichsrevolver M1879 is seen among Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson handguns in one scene of the first movie. This revolver is also the main weapon of Inspector Lestrade. In "The Hound of the Baskervilles" Lestrade's revolver is seen in hands of Dr. Watson for a short time.
Lefaucheux revolver
Charles Augustus Milverton (Boris Ryzhukhin) is armed with a Lefaucheux revolver in "The Master-Blackmailer".
Galand revolver
In the final scene of "The Hound of the Baskervilles" Stapleton (Oleg Yankovsky) is armed with Galand revolver. This is most likely Russian contract Galand in 12x14mmR calibre which was put into service in Russian Navy in 1869 as "4 1/2-line Galyan revolver" and served until 1881.
Colt Police Positive
In The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson ("Hunt for the Tiger" episode) several constables are armed with revolvers that looks like Colt Police Positive.
Pocket revolver
In "Bloody Inscription" a pocket revolver (supposedly a Belgian copy of Smith & Wesson system in .32 caliber) is seen in hands of Joseph Stangerson (Viktor Aristov) when he is disarmed by Jefferson Hope (Nikolai Karachentsov). In "The Master-Blackmailer" the same or similar revolver is used by lady Huxley (Valentina Panina).
Rast-Gasser M1898
In "The Hound of the Baskervilles" sir Henry Baskerville (Nikita Mikhalkov) holds a revolver that appears to be a Rast-Gasser M1898 when he rides through the moors.
Unidentified revolver
Another revolver, carried by sir Henry Baskerville, isn't identified. It differs from the previously mentioned one.
Pistols
FN Model 1922
In "The Twentieth Century Approaches. Part 2" German spy Von Bork (Leonid Kuravlyov) is seen with the rather anachronistic weapon - FN Model 1922 pistol (the story takes place in 1914).
Rifles
Marlin 1889
Colonel Sebastian Moran (Nikolai Kryukov) is armed with Marlin 1889 in the scene at the Reichenbach Falls in The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson ("Deadly Fight" and "Hunt for the Tiger" episodes). According to fan site of the movie, this rifle is Winchester Model 1873 with a new-made stock and several other parts but receiver is clearly a Marlin.
Custom Vetterli-based Rifle
In The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson ("Hunt for the Tiger" episode) Colonel Sebastian Moran (Nikolai Kryukov) appears with the weapon that is described as "specially designed airgun". This weapon is "played" by custom rifle based on Vetterli system. It can be identified by the unique shape of its trigger guard. The barrel of the rifle is movie prop. It is hard to say which model of Vetterli was used to create this weapon: it can be original Swiss Vetterli or Italian Vetterli-Vitali model (the last were supplied to Russia during World War I).
Unknown rifle
In one scene in "The Hound of the Baskervilles" a police constable on the railway station holds a rifle. An appropriate rifle for this place and time would be a Martini-Henry but it hardly can be seen in a Russian-filmed movie. Maybe Mosin Nagant Rifle is a best guess as the screen rifle seems to have a straight bolt handle and a typical shape of the magazine.
Shotguns
Double Barreled Shotgun
In the opening scene in "The Twentieth Century Approaches. Part 2" Von Bork (Leonid Kuravlyov) and baron von Herling (Vladimir Tatosov) are seen with double barreled shotguns.
