Sherlock (2010 - ongoing)

Sherlock is a 2010 BBC television series based on the classic novel series by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The series updates the story to a modern day setting, and incorporates modern technology (such as video surveillance and smart phones) into the plot.

Season one aired from July to August 2010 and season two aired in January 2012. Each season consists of three 90 minute episodes.

Warning: Contains Spoilers

The following firearms are used in the television series Sherlock:


Handguns

Airsoft SIG-Sauer P226R Stainless (L106A1 stand-in)

In S1E1 ("A Study in Pink"), Dr. Watson (Martin Freeman) keeps a SIG P226R Stainless in a desk drawer in his apartment. The prop is actually a gas-powered airsoft replica manufactured by Tokyo Marui. Given Watson's military background, this is likely meant as a stand-in for the SIG-Sauer L106A1, which is the British Army's standard issue sidearm. Another P226R Stainless appears in S1E2 in the flat of murder victim Eddie Van Coon (Daniel Percival).

Watson's P226R resurfaces in episode 3 where it is seen in the hands of Sherlock Holmes (Benedict Cumberbatch) who, in a fit of boredom, uses it to shoot holes in a smiley face painted on the wall of his living room. Having learned their mistake of remaining unarmed while pursuing dangerous criminals in S1E2, both Watson and Sherlock begin carrying it while investigating cases. In his first appearance, Jim Moriarty (Andrew Scott) mistakenly refers to it as a "British Army L9A1", which was the Browning Hi-Power version used by the British army.

SIG-Sauer P226R 9x19mm, updated P226 with accessory rails, now the standard production version for the P226 (IMFDB still refers to this model as the "P226R" to distinguish between newer and older models).
