Pistols
SIG P210
Jack Carter (Michael Caine) carries a SIG P210 as his sidearm, using it mostly during the gunfight on the ferry.
Walther PP
Con McCarty (George Sewell) appears to pull a Walther PP. Jack Carter (Michael Caine) takes the pistol from him.
Shotguns
12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun
Jack Carter (Michael Caine) finds a 12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun in his dead brother's house, and decides to take it. What's interesting is that, despite the fact he's extensively seen with the shotgun, he does not fire it in the film. In the book that inspired the film, Jack Returns Home, the shotgun is meant to symbolise Jack's memories of going hunting with his brother, but in the film this meaning is lost.
Ithaca 37
Peter (Tony Beckley) uses what appears to be a Ithaca 37 shotgun with a shortened barrel and custom buttstock in the gunfight with Carter on the ferry. Numerous posters for the film feature Carter with the same shotgun, but these images were taken from publicity photos as Carter doesn't use the shotgun in the film.
Rifles
Remington Model 700
The assassin 'J' uses a Remington Model 700 sniper rifle at the end of the film.
