Castle - Season 4
 Work In Progress This article is still under construction. It may contain factual errors. See Talk:Castle - Season 4 for current discussions. Content is subject to change. |
The following weapons were used in Season 4 of the television series Castle:
Pistols
Glock 17
NYPD Detective's Javier Esposito (Jon Huertas) and Kevin Ryan (Seamus Dever) use a Glock 17 as their primary sidearms throughout the series. Detective Kate Beckett (Stana Katic) uses one until "Home is Where the Heart Stops". Criminals also like them, one was used with a suppressor to murder Roger Farraday (Dean Cates) in A Deadly Game.
Glock 19
Detective Kate Beckett (Stana Katic) starts carrying the more compact Glock 19 during the events of "Home is Where the Heart Stops". Castle (Nathan Fillion) also uses Kate's while at the range, pretending to be completely inexperienced, then showing extreme proficiency after he's offered crime scene photos. Det. Tom Demming (Michael Trucco) also carries one.
Glock 26
A Glock 26 serves as Det. Beckett's backup gun, it's most notably seen when she hands it to Castle to defend himself from the "Tick, Tick, Tick..." & "Boom!" killer when they enter the warehouse he's hiding in. He uses it to shoot Kate's Glock 19 out of the killers hand. After wards Castle reveals that "he was aiming for his head". Castle again uses Kate's Glock 26 in order to defend himself in the season 3 premiere A Deadly Affair, he uses it to wound a gunman who came up behind Beckett.
- Noteworthy is that his "Aiming for the head" remark is the third Firefly/Serenity reference in the series. The first two took place during the episode "Vampire Weekend" when Castle wore his Mal costume, and the second was a catalyst sitting on his bookshelf. A catalyst is required for any Firefly class ship to run, and was a large part of Out of Gas' story arc.
M1911
In "The Third Man" (S2E14), Noel du Preez (Michael Enright) uses a compensated M1911-type to shoot at the team when he thinks they're robbers stealing from his store. Former NYPD officer, and Esposito's former partner Ike Thornton (Aaron D. Spears) is seen with a 1911 during in "Den of Thieves" (S2E21), off camera Esposito uses it to wound dirty Lt. Holliwell. A 1911 is found to be the murder weapon in Season 3's premiere "A Deadly Affair" (S3E01).
Safari Arms Matchmaster 5
A murder suspect named Roland D'Andre (Randal Reeder) is found to have a [Safari Arms Matchmaster]] 5 on him in "Punked" (S3E04).

Ruger P90
The killer uses a Ruger P90 during his activities in "Boom!" (S2E18). FBI Special Agent Jordan Shaw (Dana Delany) briefly uses it near the end of the same episode.
SIG-Sauer P226
NYPD officers are occasionally carrying the SIG-Sauer P226 (in reality, this weapon is not authorized by the NYPD to carry onduty). After disarming an officer, Rathborne holds Castle hostage with one in "Sucker Punch" (S2E13).

Smith & Wesson 3913

Bond Arms Snake Slayer IV
Montgomery uses a Bond Arms Snake Slayer IV Derringer as his holdout weapon during his confrontation with Lockwood in Season 3's finale "Knockout" (S3E24). It is the IV version of the Snake Slayer as noted by its longer barrel, and although normally chambered in .45 this pistol appears to use the .38/.357 barrel, as Montgomery loads it with the same rimmed rounds he uses in his revolver.
Smith & Wesson SW1911

Flintlock Pistols

M4A1
Esposito (Jon Huertas), as well as most NYPD ESU officers use M4A1's when needed. FBI HRT agents can be seen wielding both M4A1's and HK416's during "Tick, Tick, Tick..." (S2E17) and "Boom!" (S2E18).
MGC M16A1 Replica
In "Vampire Weekend" (S2E06), Esposito (Jon Huertas) is seen carrying an MGC M16 replica fitted with an M203 grenade launcher during Castle's Halloween party while dressed up as a US Marine (an in-joke as Huertas portrayed US Marine Sgt. Antonio Espera in the HBO miniseries Generation Kill).
Shotguns

Sniper Rifles
ROCK SOPMOD M14
In "Knockdown" (S3E13), Hal Lockwood (Max Martini) uses a suppressed ROCK SOPMOD M14 to shoot at John Raglan, and later during a shootout with Beckett. It appears to have a Harris bipod and AN/PEQ-2/5. It is supposedly chambered in .338, despite the round being much too large for fit the 7.62x51mm chamber.
Knight's Armament SR-25
A Knight's Armament SR-25 can be seen in Season 4's premiere "Rise" (S4E01). It is recovered after the attempted assassination attempt on Beckett, as seen in Season 3's finale "Knockout" (S3E24). Esposito refers to it as a Mk 11, which is correct as this particular rifle was a Navy SEAL issue weapon.
Remington 700 AICS
A Remington Model 700 AICS fitted with a suppressor and a Harris bipod is seen in "Kill Shot" (S4E09). The rifle is loaded with 165 grain .308 Winchester ammo.
Other
Nail Gun
In "The Final Nail" (S3E15), detectives arrive at the crime scene to find a female victim with multiple flat-head nails protruding from her skull. Behind a nearby chair they find a nail gun. It appears to be a cosmetically altered KitPro series judging by the shape of the butt, housing assembly (screws pointing aft), housing vents on the side and top, and the 'over/under' 'muzzle'. I think the 'over' is a nail depth gauge.
