The most famous weapon to come out of the series, or possibly any series, is the "UNCLE Special" issued to agents Napoleon Solo (Robert Vaughn) and Illya Kuryakin (David McCallum). With an attachable stock, scope, and barrel extension, the pistol quickly turns into a carbine. The producers were looking for a versatile and distinctive weapon to have on their show, one that could be adapted as the plot required.
1934 Mauser Pocket Pistol
The first attempt at the UNCLE Special was based on a 1934 Mauser Pocket Pistol. It was introduced in the second episode, as the pilot had Solo carrying a Luger P08. The Mauser variant only lasted one episode however, as the pistol was too small for all of the attachments, it did not photograph well, and even worse, didn't handle blanks well. There were continuity errors throughout the second episode, as Solo switched to a Walther P38 whenever he had to fire his weapon.

Walther P38
As the Mauser had been unable to cycle blanks, the armorers had to borrow Walther P38s from the nearby Combat! set. A bigger pistol firing reliable 9mm blanks, the P38 was a logical replacement for the smaller, .32 caliber Mauser. Eventually, six UNCLE guns were produced at the cost of $1500 apiece, although only two of them were full upgraded, with should stock, scope, barrel extension, and even full auto. While the modifications rendered the guns incapable of firing real rounds, the full auto modification caught the attention of the Treasury department, which fined the studio $2000.
Like with the Mauser-based UNCLE carbine, Solo carries the attachments for his Walther-based carbine in a OWB pack.

Handguns
Luger P08
Napoleon Solo's handgun in the pilot, prior to the introduction of the UNCLE specials, was a Luger P08. It is seen in the hands of various characters throughout the season.
A snub-nosed, nickel-plated Iver Johnson Revolver is seen in Gracie Ladovan's (Victoria Shaw) handbag in "The Vulcan Affair" (S01E01). Angelique (Janine Gray) has a blued revolver in "The Deadly Games Affair" (S01E05).
Foreign guards are armed with G.98/40 rifles in "The Dove Affair" (S01E12). The name of the country is never mentioned, only that it is in the Balkans.
Fasik el Pasad (Paul Stevens) tosses Solo, posing as an arms dealer, a modified Mauser Gewehr 1888 to test his knowledge in "The King of Knaves Affair" (S01E13). Solo identifies it as a "Brussels Vengeance rifle, manufactured by the Belgians, under duress, for Hitler", which appears to be the correct answer.
A THRUSH assassin (uncredited) uses what appears to be a Mauser 98 Sporter in "The Yellow Scarf Affair" (S01E17). The mocked up infrared device under the barrel was a Wham-O Air Blaster, a children's toy that was on the market at the time.
Colonel Morgan's troops are armed with M1 Carbines in "The Secret Sceptre Affair" (S01E19). These are equipped with flash hiders, possibly from the M3 Carbine.
Harold Bufferton (John Van Dreelen) fires a Federal Gas Riot Gun mocked up as some sort of rocket launcher from a helicopter in "The Giuoco Piano Affair" (S01E07). UNCLE agents use unmodified gas guns for their intended purpose in "The King of Knaves Affair" (S01E13).
Illya is menaced by missile firing THRUSH Robot Commandos in "The Double Affair" (S01E08). The Robot Commando was a 1961 toy that fired plastic missiles from its head.
Stunt M1 Garand rifles are seen in the hands of guards in "The Dove Affair" (S01E12). Since they are being kicked off a train, rubber stunt rifles replaced the G.98/40s they had earlier in the episode.

Gas Grenade
Solo uses mocked up gas grenade in "The Fiddlesticks Affair" (S01E16). This appears to be built from the fake Mk 2s above.
When informed of an impending strike upon UNCLE headquarters in "The Mad, Mad Tea Party Affair" (S01E18), Solo brings the building's laser beam defenses online. These "lasers" are actually the prop blaster rifles from the 1956 sci-fi classic Forbidden Planet, mounted upside down on a stand.
Mr. Hemingway (Richard Haydn) pulls out what appears to be a Luger P08 to hold off Del Floria (Irving Steinberg) in "The Mad, Mad Tea Party Affair" (S01E18). This turns out to be a candy pistol after he bites off the barrel.
