Season 9 of '''''The X-Files''''' premiered on November 11, 2001. Season 9 would be the last season of the original series and (to date) the last ''X-Files'' production to be filmed in Los Angeles, California. S9 was in many ways a departure from previous seasons of the show, due to its somewhat differing style and new main characters. After fulfilling his contract in [[The X-Files - Season 8|Season 8]], David Duchovny and his character Fox Mulder would, aside from the series finale, exit the show completely in Season 9, appearing otherwise only in archive footage (a very brief cameo of Mulder occurred in the episode "William", which Duchovny directed, his last directing credit in the show). Among Season 9's noted changes were the opening credits, which were markedly different from those of prior years; They contained slightly altered theme music, new graphics and images, and featured [[Annabeth Gish]] and, in selected episodes, [[Mitch Pileggi]], as main actors in addition to Gillian Anderson and Robert Patrick. Duchovny would also be featured in the main credits for the series finale, a marked difference from the usual norm of TV shows billing returning former main actors as 'Special Guest Stars'; As such, the main credits for the finale featured five characters, the most of any episode in the series.

Chris Carter felt the show could remain viable with new leads; It was believed both Duchovny and Anderson would leave the show after S8, and therefore, starting in S9, the series would focus around Patrick's John Doggett and Gish's Monica Reyes. Anderson would decide to stay on for the ninth season, however, as would Carter himself, despite stating desires for the show to proceed without him for the ninth year. The season's 'Monster of the Week' episodes would mostly exhibit Doggett and Reyes (with Scully in more of an advisory capacity), while the mythology would focus on Scully's son, William, and the emerging new conspiracy involving the alien 'Super Soldiers'. Monica Reyes, a New-Ager and open personality, would supplement Scully as a 'believer' in the show, playing against the newly established 'skeptic', Doggett.

+
Despite the optimism and some solid episodes, the season dropped in the ratings and received increased negative reviews from fans and critics, and FOX would ultimately decide to cancel the series after the ninth season. As such, several aspects of conclusion would take place as Season 9 progressed, including revelation of the truth behind the death of Doggett's son and the withdrawal of the subplot involving Scully's child. One element of closure would be the episode "Jump the Shark", which served as a semi-crossover and pseudo-finale to the spin-off series ''The Lone Gunmen'', which, like Carter's other series ''[[Millennium]]'', had been cancelled with no resolution to its' story threads.
  
 +
The ninth and final season of the original ''X-Files'' television series ran 20 episodes and concluded in a combined two-part finale that debuted on May 19, 2002. This would be the last piece of official ''X-Files'' filmed media until the production of the second feature film, ''[[The X-Files: I Want To Believe]]'', released in 2008.

FBI Special Agent John Doggett ([[Robert Patrick]]) carries a [[SIG-Sauer P226]] as his sidearm. FBI Special Agent Dana Scully ([[Gillian Anderson]]) is also occasionally seen in S9 with a P226 instead of her usual [[SIG-Sauer P228]], most notably in "Improbable" (S9E13). FBI Assistant Director Walter Skinner ([[Mitch Pileggi]]) is also seen with a SIG P226. Other FBI agents and government personnel are seen with P226s.

==SIG-Sauer P225==
 
During a single sequence in "Improbable" (S9E13), Dana Scully wields a [[SIG-Sauer P225]] rather than either the P228 (which she normally carries) or the P226 she is seen with throughout the episode. This might have occurred because the show's armorer was unable to bring either of the other guns on-set for this particular sequence.
 
 
 
This same substitution of SIG pistols (A P225 in place of the other aforementioned SIGs) also appears to have been done in other instances late in the series; once each in the [[The X-Files - Season 7#SIG-Sauer P225|seventh season]] and [[The X-Files - Season 8#SIG-Sauer P225|eighth season]] - This was, however, a more common occurrence during the [[The X-Files - Season 4#SIG-Sauer P225|fourth]] and [[The X-Files - Season 5#SIG-Sauer P225|fifth]] seasons. It is interesting that these same weapon substitutions have occurred throughout the show, despite production of the series moving to Los Angeles (since [[The X-Files - Season 6|season 6]]) from Vancouver (Seasons 1-5), the move including a change in armory. In this instance, the weapon is not fired, making the substitution even more intriguing.

John Doggett ([[Robert Patrick]]) is seen with a [[Glock 17]] in a flashback to his time as an NYPD officer in "Underneath" (S9E12). This is incorrect as the full-size Glock 17 is not one of the NYPD-approved sidearms (The [[Glock 19]], however, is) and at the time this flashback takes place (1989), most patrol officers were still issued revolvers - The issuance of semiautos in lieu of revolvers would not begin occurring in the NYPD until the early 1990s.

Dana Scully is seen using what appears to be a blued [[Colt Mustang]] after she is initially overpowered and disarmed of her SIG by the rogue FBI Agent Comer ([[Neal McDonough]]) in "Provenance" (S9E09). This appears to be a secondary/backup weapon for Scully, though this is the only time she is seen in the series with this gun. It is possible this was a stand-in for the [[Walther PPK|Manurhin PPK]] she previously carried in the [[The X-Files - Season 1#Manurhin PPK|first]] and [[The X-Files - Season 3#Manurhin PPK|third]] seasons of the show.

Many of the M16A2s in "Providence" are seen firing in fully-automatic (the actual M16A2 features a selective-fire with only semiautomatic and three-round burst options), and feature the 'star-pattern' or 'starburst' muzzle flash pattern of the [[M16A1]] - These are "Hollywood" M16A2s, built on automatic A1 lower receivers and fitted with A1 flash-hiders.

[[XM177|XM177-style carbines]] are seen used by military personnel and SWAT officers, notably by a squad of US troops (which are actually alien 'Super Soldier' human replacements) in a Gulf War battle flashback near the beginning of "Providence" (S9E10). These appear to be the same weapons from [[The X-Files - Season 6#XM177 / CAR-15 (Mock-ups)|Season 6]] and [[The X-Files - Season 8#XM177 / CAR-15 (Mock-ups)|Season 8]] - Mocked up from newer Colt Carbines with A2 receivers, such as the [[Colt Model 727|Model 727]] (distinguished by the brass deflector and A2 rear sights) with mock XM-type flash moderators, similar to those commonly seem on carbines in LA productions. Unlike those earlier carbines, the weapons shown in "Providence" do not have mounted weaponlights.

More likely, they started out as Colt AR-15A2 Sporter Carbines and have had slip-over mock XM177-style flash hiders added.

Season 9 of The X-Files premiered on November 11, 2001. Season 9 would be the last season of the original series and (to date) the last X-Files production to be filmed in Los Angeles, California. S9 was in many ways a departure from previous seasons of the show, due to its somewhat differing style and new main characters. After fulfilling his contract in Season 8, David Duchovny and his character Fox Mulder would, aside from the series finale, exit the show completely in Season 9, appearing otherwise only in archive footage (a very brief cameo of Mulder occurred in the episode "William", which Duchovny directed, his last directing credit in the show). Among Season 9's noted changes were the opening credits, which were markedly different from those of prior years; They contained slightly altered theme music, new graphics and images, and featured Annabeth Gish and, in selected episodes, Mitch Pileggi, as main actors in addition to Gillian Anderson and Robert Patrick. Duchovny would also be featured in the main credits for the series finale, a marked difference from the usual norm of TV shows billing returning former main actors as 'Special Guest Stars'; As such, the main credits for the finale featured five characters, the most of any episode in the series.

Chris Carter felt the show could remain viable with new leads; It was believed both Duchovny and Anderson would leave the show after S8, and therefore, starting in S9, the series would focus around Patrick's John Doggett and Gish's Monica Reyes. Anderson would decide to stay on for the ninth season, however, as would Carter himself, despite stating desires for the show to proceed without him for the ninth year. The season's 'Monster of the Week' episodes would mostly exhibit Doggett and Reyes (with Scully in more of an advisory capacity), while the mythology would focus on Scully's son, William, and the emerging new conspiracy involving the alien 'Super Soldiers'. Monica Reyes, a New-Ager and open personality, would supplement Scully as a 'believer' in the show, playing against the newly established 'skeptic', Doggett.

Despite the optimism and some solid episodes, the season dropped in the ratings and received increased negative reviews from fans and critics, and FOX would ultimately decide to cancel the series after the ninth season. As such, several aspects of conclusion would take place as Season 9 progressed, including revelation of the truth behind the death of Doggett's son and the withdrawal of the subplot involving Scully's child. One element of closure would be the episode "Jump the Shark", which served as a semi-crossover and pseudo-finale to the spin-off series The Lone Gunmen, which, like Carter's other series Millennium, had been cancelled with no resolution to its' story threads.

The ninth and final season of the original X-Files television series ran 20 episodes and concluded in a combined two-part finale that debuted on May 19, 2002. This would be the last piece of official X-Files filmed media until the production of the second feature film, The X-Files: I Want To Believe, released in 2008.


The following weapons were used in Season 9 of the television series The X-Files:

SIG-Sauer P226

FBI Special Agent John Doggett (Robert Patrick) carries a SIG-Sauer P226 as his sidearm. FBI Special Agent Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) is also occasionally seen with a P226 instead of her usual SIG-Sauer P228 in S9, most notably in "Improbable" (S9E13). FBI Assistant Director Walter Skinner (Mitch Pileggi) is also seen with a SIG P226. Other FBI agents and government personnel are seen with P226s.

In "Provenance" (S9E09), a continuity error is present as Scully is first seen wielding a SIG-Sauer P226, which then changes to her usual SIG-Sauer P228, and then back again to a P226 (see 'Special' section below).

Special

Scully is seen entering the room with a SIG P226 here in "Provenance" (S9E09). This is likely a rubber stunt version as it is knocked away in the next shot.
When the gun settles on the floor, it becomes a SIG-Sauer P228 (Note this is one of the best closeups of a P228 in the entire show).
..But then changes back to a P226 when the rogue FBI Agent Robert Comer (Neal McDonough) goes to pick it up.

SIG-Sauer P228

FBI Special Agent Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) carries a SIG-Sauer P228 as her sidearm. FBI Special Agent Monica Reyes (Annabeth Gish) also carries a SIG P228. Other FBI and government agents on the show are also seen using P228s.

Along with Bryan Cranston and Dean Norris, he is one of three Breaking Bad stars who first came to Gilligan's attention through their guest appearances on The X-Files.

M1911A1

Standard M1911A1 pistols are seen occasionally throughout the series. Several are notably wielded by corrupt Mexican policeman in "John Doe" (S9E07).

Colt M1911A1 Pistol - .45 ACP. This was an issued US Army pistol with parkerized finish, thus the official designation of M1911A1.

Glock 17

John Doggett (Robert Patrick) is seen with a Glock 17 in a flashback to his time as an NYPD officer in "Underneath" (S9E12). This is incorrect as the full-size Glock 17 is not one of the NYPD-approved semiautomatic sidearms (The Glock 19, however, is) and at the time this flashback takes place (1989), most patrol officers were still issued revolvers - The issuance of semiautos in lieu of revolvers would not begin occurring in the NYPD until the early 1990s.

Glock 17 2nd Generation - 9x19mm
Doggett, here in 1989 as an NYPD officer, has a Glock 17 drawn near the beginning of "Underneath" (S9E12).

Glock 17 Training Variant

On the left, the Glock 17 training pistol is seen in the trainee's holster in "Hellbound" (S9E08).

Colt Mustang

Dana Scully is seen using what appears to be a blued Colt Mustang after she is initially overpowered and disarmed of her SIG by the rogue FBI Agent Robert Comer (Neal McDonough) in "Provenance" (S9E09). This appears to be a secondary/backup weapon for Scully, though this is the only time she is seen in the series with this gun. It is possible this was a stand-in for the Manurhin PPK she previously carried in the first and third seasons of the show.

Heckler & Koch USP

The 'Overcoat Woman' (McNally Sagal), a member of the 'Lone Man' / Zeke Josepho's (Denis Forest) UFO cult, fires a Heckler & Koch USP at 'The Lone Gunmen', disabling their van and subsequently kidnapping Scully's son William (whom the Gunmen were protecting) at the conclusion of "Provenance" (S9E09). Another USP with suppressor mounted is used by a hired operative who confronts former 'Man in Black' Morris Fletcher (Michael McKean) in the X-Files / The Lone Gunmen semi-crossover/finale episode "Jump the Shark" (S9E15).

What appears to be an older Taurus Model 85 is briefly wielded by the Captain of an old US Navy ship (Ryan Cutrona), upon which secret experiments are being conducted, in the second part of the two-part season opener "Nothing Important Happened Today II" (S9E02). The revolver appears to be a 5-shot snub nose akin to a Smith & Wesson Model 36, however it appears to have a shrouded ejector-rod.

Submachine Guns

Heckler & Koch MP5A3

Numerous Heckler & Koch MP5A3s are seen throughout the series. These are wielded by police tactical officers and government agents, as well as military and black-ops personnel. Almost all of the MP5A3s seen in the later seasons (Seasons 6 - 9) are fitted with Surefire 628 weaponlight forearms and feature Navy lower receivers/trigger packs.

Rifles / Carbines

M16A2

Actual M16A2 rifles are seen in the later seasons produced in Los Angeles, California (Season 6 onward), rather than Olympic Arms variants as seen in the previous Vancouver-produced seasons of the show. These appear in the hands of police and law enforcement officers, as well as military personnel. Several are wielded by Mexican Federal Police near the conclusion of "John Doe" (S9E07), and notably by US soldiers during a battle scene set in the Persian Gulf War, shown in a flashback at the beginning of "Providence" (S9E10). Many of the M16A2s in "Providence" are seen firing in fully-automatic (the actual M16A2 features a selective-fire with only semiautomatic and three-round burst options), and feature the 'star-pattern' or 'starburst' muzzle flash pattern of the M16A1 - These are "Hollywood" M16A2s, built on automatic A1 lower receivers and fitted with A1 flash-hiders. M16A2s are also wielded by Marines guarding a military complex in which Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) infiltrates at the beginning of the two-part series finale "The Truth" (S9E19 / S9E20).

XM177 / CAR-15 (Mock-ups)

XM177-style carbines are seen used by military personnel and SWAT officers, notably by a squad of US troops (which are actually alien 'Super Soldier' human replacements) in a Gulf War battle flashback near the beginning of "Providence" (S9E10). The XM177s are actually mocked up from newer Colt Carbines with A2 receivers (distinguished by the brass deflector and A2 rear sights) with mock XM-type flash moderators, similar to those commonly seem on carbines in LA productions. Unlike the XM177-style carbines seen in Season 6 and Season 8, the weapons shown in "Providence" do not appear to be the Olympic Arms K3B CAR, as they have much thicker mock XM177 flash hiders without the double-notch rings. More likely, they started out as Colt AR-15A2 Sporter Carbines and have had slip-over mock XM177-style flash hiders added.

Shotguns

Remington 870

Remington 870s are wielded by police officers and and government agents throughout the series. Several are used by the corrupt Mexican police in "John Doe" (S9E07) - These appear to be fitted with synthetic furniture.

Other

Poison Pellet Gun

In the X-Files / The Lone Gunmen semi-crossover/finale episode "Jump the Shark" (S9E15), Lois Runce AKA Yves Adele Harlow (Zuleikha Robinson) uses a seemingly air-operated poison pellet gun. The weapon does not appear to be based on any particular actual dart or pellet gun (or any other gun or firearm), but is included due to it's prominence in the episode.
