Revision as of 21:52, 31 December 2008
The weapons seen in this TV series are:
Inglis HiPower
Used by Lewis Collins and Martin Shaw as their standard weapon.This particular version of the Hi-Power was manufactured during WWII in Canada.
Walther P-38
Used by a German terrorist in "Close Quarters". Doyle(Martin Shaw) is frequently seen using this pistol in place of the Browning Hi-Power.
AR-10 as the "A180 assault rifle"
An AR-10 with a Thompson Gun drum magazine and primitive laser sight is seen in the episode Hunter Hunted as an "A180 .22 calibre assault rifle" also making this a famous episode. It is supposed to be a black project assault rifle that gets stolen and used on the previous user. This rifle caused some attention to fans of this show that a .22 round is innacurate for long ranges and the fact it is really a 7.62x51mm AR-10. Not to forget this is the worlds first tv show appearence to feature a laser-lock sight in the movie industry. Can be seen used here!

Colt Python
Used by the character of "Tinkerbell" in the episode "Blind Run". Can also be seen used by a "terrorist" in the hostage rescue training at the beginning of "Wild Justice".
Smith & Wesson Model 19
Smith & Wesson Model 29
The Model 29 .44 Magnum is featured in the episode "Mixed Doubles". Bodie & Doyle each carry a Model 29 while on a special bodyguard assigment. Ironically, the assassins opposing them are also armed with Model 29s.
Smith & Wesson Model 36
Cowley's(Gordon Jackson) standard weapon. Other CI5 agents and sometimes criminals are also seen using this revolver.
Smith & Wesson Model 40 Centennial
A female terrorist uses this revolver during the shoot-out at the end of the episode "Fugitive".

A Special Branch agent is seen using this revolver in the episode "Fall Girl".
M1911A1
The character of Turkel uses a Colt M1911A1 during the police station takeover in "Old Dogs With New Tricks".
Walther PPK
Considering the nature of the show it seemed appropriate to have images of the PPK with a supressor.
FN Model M1910
One of Turkel's men is seen brandishing an FN Model 1910 during the police station takeover in "Old Dogs With New Tricks".
SIG P210
The P210 appears in the show on a regular basis, usually in the hands of the bad guys. The mercenary leader Krivas uses this pistol briefly in "Where the Jungle Ends". The terrorist group in "Fugitive", and kidnappers in "Acorn Syndrome" use P210s. It also appears in the episode "Blind Run".
Smith & Wesson Model 39
Corrupt CI5 agent Barry Martin is seen using a suppressed S & W Model 39 at the very beginning of the episode "Rogue".
Heckler & Koch P9S
CI5 agent Stuart is seen using this pistol in the episode "Blackout".
Tokarev TT33
Used by the hitman O'Leary in "A Stirring of Dust". For some strange reason, Special Branch agents are armed with Tokarevs in the episode "Fall Girl."
Beretta Model 1934
Luger P08
Mauser C-96 Carbine
Used by a hitman in "Everest Was Also Conquered". This particular C-96 is equipped with a skeleton stock, telescopic sight, and has what appears to be a 15-inch barrel.
Double Barrel Shotgun
Ithaca 37 Shotgun
The character of Tommy uses a sawed-off Ithaca 37 with pistol grip in the episode "Heroes". It also features a custom wire stock, closely resembling the type used on the MP40 SMG, which folds onto the top of the gun.
Stevens 77 Shotgun?
A member of the hit team in "Blind Run" is seen using a pump-action shotgun. I haven't positively identified it yet, but it most closely resembles a Stevens Model 77.
Sterling L2A3
This smg appears in various episodes of the series. All the members of the mercenary group in "Where the Jungle Ends" use this weapon. A Greek terrorist uses a Sterling in "Killer with a Long Arm". Bodie uses a Sterling to take down a assassin on the golf course in "Blood Sports".
Uzi
The Uzi is the most common SMG used in the show. Bodie & Doyle can be seen with Uzi's during the hostage rescue sequence at the end of "First Night". CI5 agents are equipped with Uzi's at the beginning of "Dead Reckoning". Bodie & two other CI5 agents use Uzi's at the conclusion of "A Hiding To Nothing". Bodie again has an Uzi during the finale of "Takeaway". Criminals and terrorists in "The Professionals" are also seen with Uzis. At the end of the episode "Heroes", hitmen armed with Uzis attempt to kill a witness. Uzis are seen in the hands of terrorists in the episode "Blackout".
MAC-10
Kidnappers in the episode "First Night" use MAC-10 submachine guns. A MAC-10 with suppressor is used by a member of the hit squad in the episode "Blind Run."
MP40
Used by a German terrorist in "Close Quarters". Later it's acquired by Bodie after he kills the terrorist using it.
SA 25
This Czech SMG is used by the German female terrorist in "Close Quarters".
MAT 49 submachine gun
Kodai's men use MAT-49s when they attack the safehouse in the episode "Stopover". The terrorists in "Blackout" are also seen using them at the end of the episode.
M1 Carbine
A specially modified M-1 Carbine used as a sniper weapon is seen several times throughout the series. It can be broken down into 3 pieces--barrel, receiver/forestock, buttstock--is equipped with a scope, and sometimes a suppressor. The character of Nesbitt uses this special carbine in "Private Madness, Public Danger". It also appears in "Runner". The episodes "Blood Sports" & "Hijack" show the carbine with the suppressor attached, in both cases being used by hitmen in assassination attempts. These two episodes also show the carbine fully broken down into its separate parts and then being assembled.
M16A1
SAS soldiers are seen carrying M16A1s in the episode "Long Shot".
SIG 510
A hitman uses the SIG 510 battle rifle to kill witnesses in the episode "Heroes". The rifle is used again at the conclusion of the same episode, when the hitman uses it in an attempt to kill another witness.
AR-18S
Steyr AUG
VZ 58V
The folding stock variant of the VZ 58 is used by a terrorist during an assassination attempt at the end of the episode "A Hiding To Nothing".
STG44
During a prisoner exchange at the beginning of the episode "Dead Reckoning", Bulgarian agents are seen carrying German STG44 assault rifles. When this program aired in the late 1970's, probably none of the AK series of weapons were available in the West for use in TV shows, so most likely the STG44s was being used as a "stand-ins" because of their general resemblance to the AK(STG44's were used by the East German forces and Yugoslav Paratroops after WW2).
AR-10
A standard AR-10 appears in the episode "Kickback", in which Bodie uses it as a sniper rifle.
FN FAL
The FN FAL is used in two episodes of the series, and both times is shown firing on full automatic. The character of Tommy is armed with a FAL at the end of "Heroes", at one point using it to fire a rifle grenade. Bodie equips himself with the FAL in "Fall Girl".
L1A1 SLR
The British variant of the FN FAL is probably most common rifle used in the show. It can be seen in the hands of British soldiers in "Old Dogs With New Tricks", "Stakeout", & "First Night". Turkel's men use stolen L1A1s when they takeover the police station in "Old Dogs With New Tricks". CI5 agents are seen equipped with L1A1s in "Blackout". Many times the L1A1 is seen with a scope mounted. Cowley uses one in "Need to Know", CI5 snipers use them in "Fugitive", as well as the character of Mickey Hamilton in the "Madness of Mickey Hamilton".
Enfield XL64ES
These prototype rifles(the forerunners of the SA80) are used by Bodie and Doyle during the hostage rescue scene at the beginning of the episode "Wild Justice". According to "The Professionals" magazine, Vol. 2, No.2, these are actual experimental rifles, which at the time were undergoing testing by the military, and were loaned to the production for use in this episode.
Lee Enfield No.4
Kar 98K
A Kar 98K with scope appears briefly in "Fall Girl", planted in a hotel room in order to frame Bodie for an assassination.
Converted Kar 98K
Federal Riot Gun
No. 36 Hand Grenade
RPG-2
Used by a terrorist during the assassination attempt at the end of the episode "A Hiding To Nothing". Many promotional photos for "The Professionals" show Bodie(Lewis Collins) holding the RPG-2, however, he never actually uses the weapon during this episode.
