Browning Hi-Power

Used by the evil guy in Episode 8.17, "Empedocles."

SIG-Sauer P226

Starting with episode 2.01, "Little Green Men,", Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) used a SIG-Sauer P226. Following this episode, Mulder carried the P226 for the entirety of the show, with the exception of Season 3, when he and Scully both used Smith & Wesson 5906s.

Many of the other FBI Agents throughout the show, including Agent John Doggett (Robert Patrick) also use P226s.

SIG-Sauer P228

Beginning with Season 2, Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) started using a SIG-Sauer P228, which subsequently became her sidearm for the entire show (Season 3 notwithstanding, when she and Mulder both used Smith & Wesson 5906s). Alex Krycek (Nicholas Lea), Walter Skinner (Mitch Pileggi) and some of the other FBI Agents on the show also used the P228. Scully used a P228 from episode 2.05 "Duane Barry" until episode 3.01 "The Blessing Way", and then again from episode 6.01 "The Beginning".

Walther PPK

In episode 8.11 "The Gift", flashbacks are shown of Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) using his Walther PPK to shoot and attempt to kill a soul eater who cured him of a terminal disease, to relieve it of its suffering. In the same episode, Agent John Doggett (Robert Patrick) discovers a Walther taped under Mulder's bathroom sink in its holster, but this gun is an Interarms/Walther PPK/S, not the regular PPK model, Mulder used (the model PPK/S has a larger frame than the PPK).
