Captain Homer Jackson ([[Adam Rothenberg]]) uses a [[Smith & Wesson Mk II Hand Ejector]]. This revolver is anachronistic as the series is set in 1889, and the Mk II Hand Ejector was not developed until 1915. The only available swing-out cylinder revolvers in 1889 was be only a brand new [[Smith & Wesson Military & Police]] and [[Colt New Army & Navy]].

In "The Peace of Edmund Reid" (S3E08), Jackson shows Reid schematics of the new [[Maxim]] machine gun that Theodore Swift ([[Michael McElhatton]]) is trafficking.
In "The Peace of Edmund Reid" (S3E08), Jackson shows Reid schematics of the new [[Maxim]] machine gun that Theodore Swift ([[Ian McElhinney]]) is trafficking. Swfit himself fires one of these guns to execute an informant. This is roughly accurate, where the second half of Season 3 takes place in 1895, when the Maxim was first developed.

Webley .455 Mk IV
A Webley .455 Mk IV is found on the body of a murderer in "The Good of This City" (S01E04). A Webley is also carried by George Doggett (Sam Hazeldine) in "The Weight of One Man's Heart" (S01E05).
One of the Pinkerton agents in "A Man of My Company" (S01E07) carries a Single Action Army "Quickdraw" fitted with "Bird's Head" grips in a cross draw holster. In "Your Father. My Friend" (S03E05) Long Susan (MyAnna Buring) fires the same revolver, then plants it in a dead man's hand.
A Side by Side Sawed Off Shotgun can be seen in the opening credits. Later, a thug in a brothel fires one at Reid and Drake in "Your Father. My Friend" (S03E04).
A box of what appear to be Winchester Model 1866 "Yellow Boy" rifles is seen being unloaded by the Pinkerton agents in "A Man of My Company" (S01E07). The design of the rear sight and the placement of the barrel band, coupled with the fact that they are never used, suggests that they may actually be non-firing replicas manufactured by Denix.
Winchester Model 1894
Frank Goodnight (Edoardo Ballerini) has a Winchester Model 1894 in "A Man of My Company" (S01E07). This rifle is anachronistic with the series taking place in 1889, five years before the rifle was introduced.
Machine Guns
Maxim 1895
In "The Peace of Edmund Reid" (S3E08), Jackson shows Reid schematics of the new Maxim machine gun that Theodore Swift (Ian McElhinney) is trafficking. Swfit himself fires one of these guns to execute an informant. This is roughly accurate, where the second half of Season 3 takes place in 1895, when the Maxim was first developed.
