=Pistols=
==Beretta 92FS==
Professor Abraham Setrakian ([[David Bradley]]) disarms a Hispanic gang member of a [[Beretta 92FS]] when two of them try to rob his pawnshop in "Night Zero" (S01E01). He then disassembles the pistol and tosses the parts into a cart of other assorted gun parts, indicating he has done so many times before.

==Glock 17==
Thomas Eichhorst ([[Richard Sammel]]) gives a [[Glock 17]] to the owner of an airline and forces him to commit suicide with it in "Gone Smooth" (S01E03). Several Glocks are also seen in Abraham Setrakian's ([[David Bradley]]) vampire-hunting armory.

== Nail Guns ==
One of Abraham Setrakian's ([[David Bradley]]) most favored weapons is a nail gun that fires silver nails. Though not technically a firearm, in the novels on which the series is based, it is explained that Setrakian has augmented the gun's firing mechanism with small charges of gunpowder, like a shotgun shell. This augmentation is necessary because neither of the original type of nail gun is suitable as a vampire-hunting weapon: pneumatic guns are not portable, since they need to be connected to supplies of water and air, while electric, battery-powered guns lack muzzle velocity and ranged trajectory. The nail gun also becomes favored by Eph Goodweather ([[Corey Stoll]]) and Vasily Fet ([[Kevin Durand]]).

('''N.B.''' Powder-actuated nail guns are commercially available, but are impractical as weapons since they require re-loading after each shot.)

== Silver Bullets ==
Abraham Setrakian ([[David Bradley]]) has a collection of silver bullets for loading into the various guns in his armory.

== Grenades ==
The weapons in Abraham Setrakian's ([[David Bradley]]) armory includes a series of hollowed-out grenade shells, with which he is attempting to make an ultraviolet light flash-bang (similar to one used in [[Guillermo del Toro]]'s earlier film ''[[Blade 2]]'').
