The Hound of the Baskervilles is a British 1959 screen adaptation of the famous detective novel by Arthur Conan Doyle. It is directed by Terence Fisher and stars Peter Cushing as Sherlock Holmes, André Morell as Doctor Watson, and Christopher Lee as Sir Henry Baskerville. Unlike most screen versions of the novel, this one is more a horror movie than a detective one.
The following weapons were used in the film The Hound of the Baskervilles:
Revolvers
Webley No.5 Express
Dr. Watson (André Morell) carries a Webley No.5 Express revolver. Due to a continuty error, this gun is also seen in hands of Sherlock Holmes (Peter Cushing) instead of previously seen revolver.
Unidentified revolver
Sherlock Holmes (Peter Cushing) holds an unidentified revolver. It appears to be some version of solid-frame Webley but has a slender frame and thin barrel in comparison with such revolvers as No.5, R.I.C. or Bulldog.
Pistols
Percussion Cap Pistol
Four Percussion Cap Pistols are seen on the wall in Baskerville Hall. Two are large, and two of smaller size.
Muskets
Several muskets are seen on the wall in Baskerville Hall.
