The first season tells 9 stories (originally planned 10, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic one of them was postponed) from alternate universes that arose after the events of Loki. Episode 1 of the series finds Peggy Carter taking the super serum instead of Steve Rogers and Episode 2 poses the question of what if T'Challa (the final role for Chadwick Boseman) became Star-Lord, among other alternate scenarios. Despite the format of the anthologies, all the episodes of Season 1 are linked by a coherent plot. Season 1 of What If...? premiered on Disney+ on August 11, 2021.
The following weapons were used in Season 1 of the television series What If...?:
Handguns
Colt M1911A1
During the liberation of allied prisoners of war, Bucky Barnes and Captain Carter are armed with Colt M1911A1 pistols in "What If... Captain Carter Were The First Avenger?" (S1E01).
Colt M1917 Revolver
As in the original film, Dum Dum Dugan carries a holstered Colt M1917 revolver but does not use it in "What If... Captain Carter Were The First Avenger?" (S1E01).
