Sanctuary was a Canadian-produced science fiction television series that aired in the US on Syfy (formerly known as the Sci-Fi Channel). The series premiered in 2007 and was originally a series of 8 webisodes which were sold directly to viewers through the official website. Thanks to its success on the internet, the Syfy channel commissioned a 13 episode series for 2008, with the first 4 webisodes being re-cut and re-shot into the two hour pilot. The show was groundbreaking in that the majority of the series' backgrounds and sets are virtual. The actors do all of their work on massive green screen sets and nearly nothing that is seen in the show (other than the actors) actually exist outside the parameters of CGI rendering software. The show is also notable as being the first television show in North America to use the RED camera exclusively, with all material being recorded digitally, eliminating tape from the process completely.
The following weapons were used in the television series Sanctuary:
A Colt Commander is the normal side arm of Dr. Helen Magnus (Amanda Tapping) for the majority of the series. It can be distinguished from a regular 1911 by its slightly shorter barrel, and rounded hammer with a hole through it. It has been used on occasion to fire special tranquilizer bullets.
A regular Colt M1911A1 is briefly used by Ashley Magnus (Emilie Ullerup) in "Fata Morgana" (S1E03). Dr. Magnus (Amanda Tapping) switches from her Colt Commander to the full size M1911A1 (along with a smaller back up gun) at the start of Season 4.
A variety of different generation Glock 17s are used extensively throughout the series by Sanctuary personnel, The Cabal, police officers and criminals. It is the standard side are used by Dr. Will Zimmerman (Robin Dunne) and Henry Foss (Ryan Robbins). In Sanctuary use they have been used to fire special tranquilizer bullets.
Beretta 92FSs are seen throughout the series, mainly in the hands of criminals or Cabal agents, but occasionally used by police or Sanctuary personnel.
A Taurus PT911SS is first seen being used by Henry Foss (Ryan Robbins) in "Eulogy" (S2E03), and is also the main weapon used by Jimmy (Michael Shanks) in the episode "Penance" (S2E09).
At several points throughout the series, Dr. Magnus' Colt Commander changes into an unknown 1911 type pistol, sometimes in the middle of a scene. It seems to have a double stack magazine, stainless steel hammer, front and rear slide serrations and enlarged sights.
Error creating thumbnail: File missingIn this image from "Haunted" (S2E11) the front and rear slide serrations, and the different sights are visible. Also, the bottom of the magazine is visible, which appears to be of the double stack variety.Error creating thumbnail: File missingIn this shot from "Bank Job" (S3E03) the profile of the pistol is visible, along with the fact that it has a stainless steel hammer.
Jericho 941 R
Kate Freelander (Agam Darshi) uses a standard Jericho 941 throughout the episode "Bank Job" (S3E03).
A Desert Eagle Mark VII is used in "For King and Country" (S3E08). The pistol has either a nickel or gold plated finish, but it is hard to tell which due to the lighting.
The current production model of the Walther P99, the Quick Action, can be seen in several episodes in Season 3, and appears to be the current preferred sidearm of Kate Freelander (Agam Darshi).
Error creating thumbnail: File missingWalther P99QA (Quick Action) - 9x19mm. Note the changes in trigger guard, slide and frame (2004+ models).Error creating thumbnail: File missingKate Freelander (Agam Darshi) aiming her P99QA in "Hangover" (S3E12). This front view shows the non-proprietary front rail of the QA.Error creating thumbnail: File missingOne of the criminals in "One Night" (S3E13) carries a P99QA. In this shot the rounded rather than horned bottom of the trigger guard, and the full height slide serrations of the post 2004 QA model are clearly visible.Error creating thumbnail: File missingKate, Will and the Big Guy prepare to enter a room in "Awakening" (S3E16). Kate is armed with a P99QA whilst Will uses his regular Glock 17.
Luger P08
The Luger P08 is used by both the French Resistance and German forces in "Normandy" (S3E17).
Dr. Magnus (Amanda Tapping) is carrying a Walther PPK as her back up gun (along with a full size M1911A1) when she is transported back in time in "Tempus" (S4E01).
A Walther P99 with a stainless steel slide is used by the leader of the criminals (John Novak) in "Monsoon" (S4E04). At one point is taken by Feodor 'Frank' Glazov (Carlo Rota) during an escape attempt.
Nicholls (Tora Hylands), one of the criminals in "Monsoon" (S4E04), uses a pair of TiSAS Zigana F pistols which are later taken and hidden by Dr. Magnus (Amanda Tapping). These pistols have the F length slide but do not appear to have the railed frame. They also have the earlier version grips with vertical ribbing suggesting that these pistols may be an early variant.
A Smith & Wesson Model 28 with a 4 inch barrel is Will's sidearm in the post-apocalyptic future portrayed in "Pavor Nocturnus" (S2E05).

Note the cylinder gap and (though barely visible) tapered barrel indicating this is a .357 N-frame S&W.
Colt Python
A .357 Colt Python with a 5 inch barrel is used by "The Duke" (Aleks Paunovic) in "Penance" (S2E09).
Error creating thumbnail: File missingColt Python, Stainless Steel variant with 4" Barrel - .357 MagnumError creating thumbnail: File missingA closeup of the muzzle of the Colt Python. Note the distance between the muzzle and the forward vent in the rib - the vent is behind the front sight, rather than directly below it - indicating this is a 5" barrel variant (compare to the 4" version in the image above).Error creating thumbnail: File missing"The Duke" threatens Jimmy (Michael Shanks) with his Colt Python. Note how the gun, though with a somewhat long barrel, features only two vents in the rib, not three as it would be on a 6" variant.
Ruger Speed Six
A blued Ruger Speed Six snub can be seen in "Trail of Blood" (S3E04).
Error creating thumbnail: File missingRuger Speed Six with blued finish and 2.75-inch barrel - .357 MagnumError creating thumbnail: File missingA close up shot of the muzzle end of the revolver in mid cock. Unfortunately, the manufacturers marks are just out of focus, however their pattern is the same as that of the Speed Six. Furthermore, the shape of the ejector shroud, as well as the hole in the side of it, matches the Speed Six, as does the relationship between the bolt notches and cylinder fluting.
Single Action Army
When transported back in time to 1898 in "Tempus" (S04E01) Dr. Magnus uses a time-period appropriate Single Action Army to replace her Colt M1911A1.
A Side by Side Shotgun appear in "Edward" (S1E08). It appears to be a short barrelled “coach gun”, which is a legal weapon as opposed to a sawed off shotgun.
Error creating thumbnail: File missingThe shotgun in question is seen here on the man's lap, upside down with the trigger facing upwards towards the camera. It can be seen in this photo that the shotgun has a full stock, and it is likely that the barrels are 18" (minimum legal length).Error creating thumbnail: File missingA close up of the action of the coach gun as it is being loaded, showing that it is of a type with internal hammers.
Unidentified Pump Action Shotgun
A pump action shotgun is carried by Ashley in "Fata Morgana" (S1E03)
A number of Heckler & Koch MP5A3s are seen throughout the series used by all sides. The current variant of the MP5 that seems to be favoured by the armourers on the show is fitted with a UMP-style folding stock, a RIS forend with vertical grip and ACOG sight.

In this shot is is apparent that there are under-barrel flashlights fitted, however they are not being used and instead a secondary flashlight is mounted to the front sight post.Error creating thumbnail: File missingA different configuration of MP5 can be seen being used by this female Cabal operative in "The Five" (S1E07), where the under barrel flashlight is used, and a green laser sight is mounted on the front sight.Error creating thumbnail: File missingIn this shot in "The Five" (S1E07), it can be seen that the MP5 on the left of frame is fitted with a Colt x4 scope, as used by the MP5s on Stargate SG-1.Error creating thumbnail: File missingAn MP5 can be seen at the top of this frame, where it is hung on the wall of the armoury in "Penance" (S2E09).Error creating thumbnail: File missingMembers of the Sanctuary tactical team in "Awakening" (S3E16) carry MP5s fitted with UMP style folding stocks, railed forends, ACOGs, flashlights and vertical grips.Error creating thumbnail: File missingMP5s are used by the Lotus Defence Corps soldiers guarding the camp in "Into the Black" (S3E20).Error creating thumbnail: File missingMP5s are used by both the Lotus Defence Corps soldiers and the interred abnormals who took weapons from the guards in "Uprising" (S4E02).
Heckler & Koch MP7
Heckler & Koch MP7s are one of the standard weapons used by the Sanctuary network and are seen on a number of occasions.
Error creating thumbnail: File missingHeckler & Koch MP7A1 with factory magazine and iron sights - 4.6x30mmError creating thumbnail: File missingSanctuary security personnel form up at the front door in "End of Nights: Part 2" (S2E02) with their MP7s fitted with C79 Elcan scopes and 40 round magazines.Error creating thumbnail: File missingA close up of an MP7 as it is being fired in "End of Nights: Part 2" (S2E02), with the empty cases being ejected from the right of the gun, and it can also be seen that a laser is mounted on the left rail.Error creating thumbnail: File missingGerald (Colin Cunningham) fires an MP7 in "Fragments" (S2E06), creating an impressive muzzle flash.Error creating thumbnail: File missingIn this side shot from "Fragments" (S2E06), it is possible to see that in this case the MP7 is fitted with folding iron sights, and a 40 round magazine.
MAC-11
A MAC-11 is used by one of "The Duke's" henchmen in "Penance" (S2E09).
M1928A1 Thompsons can be seen being used by both resistance fighters and US soldiers in "Normandy" (S3E17). It is likely that these were deactivated weapons or non-firing props, as for firing scenes these guns change to M1 Thompsons.
Error creating thumbnail: File missingM1928A1 Thompson with 30-round magazine - .45 ACP. This specimen has the sling swivel relocated to the top of the stock, a modification often made to Thompsons in British service.Error creating thumbnail: File missingJames Watson (Peter Wingfield) can be seen carrying a M1928A1 when they first contact the resistance, which later changes to an M1.Error creating thumbnail: File missingOne of the US Airborne soldiers can be seen with an M1928A1 (as noted by the top mounted bolt handle and old style rear sight) when they rescue Nigel Griffin (Vincent Gale).
M1 Thompson
M1 Thompsons are seen multiple times in "Normandy" (S3E17) being used by the main characters.
What appears to be Colt M4A1s can be seen in the hands of police officers in "Bank Job" (S3E03) fitted with 4-position stocks, slings, and the standard iron sights.
A variant of the Remington Model 700 is used by a police sniper in "Bank Job" (S3E03) fitted with a bi-pod and telescopic sight. From the shape and texturing of the furniture, it appears to be fitted with a Macmillan A4 Tactical Stock, as seen on the M40A3 Sniper Rifle.
Another Remington 700 rifle in a Choate Super Sniper Stock can be seen in Webisode 3, being examined by Ashley when she meets her gun dealer. This is not a Savage 10FP as previously identified - Note the location and distinctive shape of the bolt handle, and the presence of a bolt shroud behind the bolt handle, a feature the Savage action does not have.
A Machine gun of some description can briefly be seen mounted on the sidecar of a German motorbike as it passes through a checkpoint at the start of "Normandy" (S3E17). It is only visible from the front, but it doesn't appear to be a German machine gun, but could be a Browning M1919.
A number of shoulder launched Starstreak HVM launchers are used by the Private Military Contractors in "Carentan" (S3E18). Although the launch tube and attached aiming unit match those of the real world Starstreak, the missile has a conventional appearance more akin to an artillery shell, rather than the unusual and distinctive triple sub-munition warhead of the Starstreak. Furthermore, the missile is incorrectly depicted as a stand alone round that is loaded into the launch tube rather than the launch tube being a sealed round in and of itself.
What appears to be a Glock 17 Real Action Marker (paint ball gun) is used in "Sleepers" (S2E10). It is likely that the reason for this was that the gun was fired very close to an actors head, and the compressed air action of this type of weapon means that the action cycles, recoil is created, and a blast of air is created with minimal risk to the actor due to lack of pyrotechnics.
One of the hijackers uses an Advanced Taser M26 in the contact mode to stun Kate in "Hero: Part II" (S3E05). Note that this weapon does seem to use a slightly different colour scheme to the regular M26, so it is possible that this is a replica of some sort or has been modified.
Due to the premise of the show (capturing abnormal creatures alive) there are a great number of esoteric, fictional weapons used by the Sanctuary personnel. Normally these are stun weapons of some sort.
