The PP auctioned by Christies and attributed to this film is a .380, which the Metropolitan Police used beginning in,IIRC in 1961.In British spy films of the era, Walther PPs were common... I honestly can't ID a PPK anywhere in the film, and think the PP was used throughout.

The following weapons were used in the film Dr. No:

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Dr. No (1962)


M1911A1

Two of the "three blind mice" assassins use suppressed M1911A1s to murder Strangways at the beginning. Professor Dent also has a suppressed M1911A1 in the scene in which he attempts to kill Bond. Bond identifies Dent's 1911 as a Smith & Wesson, only holding six bullets ("That's a Smith and Wesson, and you've had your six"), however all 1911s would have at least a seven-round magazine capacity. This line was taken directly from the novel, where Dent used a Smith & Wesson revolver. Strangely, Bond's PPK appears to be substituted for a 1911 while shooting at the Dragon Tank on Crab Key. After taking a few shots, the gun is back to his usual PPK.

As many times as I've watched this movie (since 1962!) I've come to believe that this 1911 is the only blank-adapted pistol actually used in the film;witness it standing in for the Walther in the swamp gunfight.

Walther P38

One of the "three blind mice" assassins at the beginning has a Walther P38.

Beretta M1934

James Bond (Sean Connery) hands his Beretta M1934 over to M (Bernard Lee) and the armorer in the beginning of the film, receiving his PPK as a replacement.

Note: This scene was taken almost verbatim from the original novel by Ian Fleming, however, the Beretta in the novel was a 418 .25 ACP.

Walther PP

Although Bond (Sean Connery) is assigned a 7.65 mm "Walther PPK" by M, forcing him to hand over his Beretta (which M accuses of being underpowered, despite the 1934's .30 chambering being superior to the replacement PPK's 7.65 chambering). However in the film he actually longer-barreled Walther PP chambered in .380 ACP (same as carried by the Metropolitan Police in 1961). Felix Leiter (Jack Lord) also carries a Walther PP, even though he's a CIA agent and, according to M, would use the PPK. Bond's PP would later be auctioned by Christie's.

  • M: "Yes, I thought so. This damn Beretta again. I've told you about this before." (to the armorer) "You tell him, for the last time."
  • Maj. Boothroyd: "It's nice and light... in a lady's handbag. No stopping power."
  • M: "Any comments, 007?"
  • James Bond: "I disagree, sir. I've used the Beretta for ten years. And I've never missed with it yet."
  • M: "Maybe not, but it jammed on your last job and you spent six months in the hospital in consequence. If you carry a double-O number, it means you're licensed to kill, not get killed... From now on you'll carry a different gun. Show him, armorer."

FN Browning M1910

Bond (Sean Connery) uses a FN Model 1910 with a suppressor to assassinate Professor Dent (Anthony Dawson). It is assumed that this was supposed to be a PPK, but the props department was unable to find a suppressor fitting the prop PPK.

At the end of the scene, Bond merely twists and yanks the "silencer" from the barrel of the FN. As any armorer would know, the threads on a threaded barrel are far too fine for such a movement. The truth is, the silencer was fake and had a dowel that slid into the barrel for fitting. This was mentioned in the Dr. No Special Edition DVD.

Perhaps, the FN was used because,being striker-fired the viewer couldn't tell whether or not the slide cycled;note there's a cutaway between the two shots Bond fires.
