The following firearms were used in the first season of the NBC television series Hunter:
During the first season, LAPD Det. Sgt. Rick Hunter (Fred Dryer) carries a Heckler & Koch P9S with muzzle compensator, also seen during the opening credits. He sometimes refers to it as "Simon". In "The Garbage Man" (1.11), both James "Sonny" Dupree (Christopher McDonald) and his friend Ramos (Nicholas Worth) handle Hunter's H&K P9S before Dupree takes out the magazine and ejects the chambered round to hand it back to Hunter.
After the pilot episode, Det. Sgt. Dee Dee McCall (Stepfanie Kramer) carries a Walther PPK/S with white grips during the first four seasons. Hunter describes it as a "police issue .38", possibly suggesting that McCall's PPK/S is chambered in .380 ACP.
LAPD Det. Bernie Terwilliger (James Whitmore Jr.) keeps a first generation Colt Detective Special holstered on his belt. In "Hard Contract" (1.02), a thief (Ezekiel Moss) flashes a Detective Special (an S&W Model 10 Snub in the next shot) to a hot dog vendor. In "Legacy" (1.05), mobster Billy Vincent (Kip Gilman) accosts McCall and kidnaps Sandy Newton with a suppressed Detective Special. In "Flight on a Dead Pigeon" (1.06), Benny (Robert Costanzo) holds his Detective Special (an S&W Model 10 Snub in the previous shot) on Hunter and McCall but McCall (Stepfanie Kramer) takes it away from him and carries it during the scene. In "High Bleacher Man" (1.09), ex-con Elton Gavin (Michael Baseleon) uses a Detective Special during a store holdup but is stopped by Hunter. McCall later finds a Detective Special inside the gym bag of mob hood Whitey McFee (Alan Autry), saying the three spent bullets inside were used to shoot at Hunter (even though the gun used in that scene was a S&W Model 19).
Several characters throughout the course of the show use third generation Colt Detective Specials. In the pilot episode, a bank robber (John Diehl), the pimp Whispering Willie (David Labiosa), and Justin Taylor are seen with Detective Specials.
The bank guard in the pilot episode has a Smith & Wesson Model 19 holstered, taking it out after he goes with Hunter to chase down the suspects. A mobster uses one when breaking into Hunter's apartment in "Hard Contract" (1.02). Whitey McFee (Alan Autry) uses a Model 19 to shoot at Hunter from his car in "High Bleacher Man" (1.09) but, in a case of gun continuity, the gun found on him later by McCall is a Colt Detective Special. In "The Snow Queen, Pt. 2" (1.14), both the drug dealer Louie and Vic Terranova's right hand man Tony Boy (Joseph Cali) have Model 19s. Several mobsters in "The Last Kill" (1.17) have Model 19s.
A thug dressed as a doctor attacks McCall with a Star Model B in the pilot episode, but she knocks it from his hand by knocking him over in her wheelchair.
Benny (Robert Costanzo) reaches for a Smith & Wesson Model 10 Snubnose when Hunter and McCall enter his shop in "Flight on a Dead Pigeon" (1.06), but it turns into a Colt Detective Special in the next shot. In the same episode, the Mexican drug smuggler (Gary Cervantes) who meets with Deakin has a Model 10 holstered, as does one of his thugs.
Policeman-turned-hitman Gus Trancus (David Ackroyd) carries a 6"-barreled Colt Python as his sidearm, using it to wound McCall in "Hard Contract" (1.02).
Private investigator Manny Roth (Ray Girardin) has a Smith & Wesson Model 10 in "The Hot Grounder" (1.03), using it during the shootout with Crenshaw, Hunter, and McCall in the warehouse. Capt. Danziger (Daniel Chodos) in "Sniper" (1.19) has a Model 10 holstered.
Sgt. Hunter (Fred Dryer) keeps a Detonics Pocket 9 as his backup pistol, handing it to a policeman when he is arrested in "The Hot Grounder" (1.03). In "Pen Pals" (1.07), a hitman named Carbone takes the Detonics from Hunter's apartment, murders a drug pusher named Rosco, and frames Hunter for the murder.
Los Angeles Police Commissioner Larry Crenshaw (William Windom) carries a Smith & Wesson Model 66 in "The Hot Grounder" (1.03). A Coronado Springs, Texas sheriff named Jake Cutter (Bo Svenson) carries a Smith & Wesson Model 66 in "A Long Way From L.A." (1.04). In this episode, it often alternates between a Model 66 and Model 67.
Coronado Springs, Texas Sheriff Jake Cutter (Bo Svenson) carries a Smith & Wesson Model 67 in "A Long Way From L.A." (1.04). In a continuity error, this often switches between a Model 67 and a Model 66.
After the killing of mobster John Vincent in "Legacy" (1.05), Det. Terwilliger (James Whitmore Jr.) shows Hunter and McCall the evidence bag with the murder weapon, a M1911A1 in it, prompting Hunter to tell him to "never pointed a loaded bag" at someone. Hunter then asks how many bullets are remaining in the "clip" (meaning magazine), and Terwilliger tells him four. McCall then interjects that the "clip" (again, meaning magazine) holds eight, meaning 4 rounds had been fired. One of Deakin's henchmen in "Flight on a Dead Pigeon" (1.06) also has a 1911. Motorcycle policeman Doug Kirkwood (Marc Alaimo) keeps a 1911 in his holster, seen in "The Shooter" (1.10). Drug dealer Snazzy Louis Green (Jason Ronard) has a 1911-carrying bodyguard in "The Beach Boy" (1.15). In "Rape and Revenge, Pt. 2", McCall (Stepfanie Kramer) takes a 1911A1 from a Curaguay soldier. A hand is seen loading an M1911A1 during the fifth season opening credits.
Deakin (Anthony Charnota), the drug smuggler, carries a blued Ruger Security Six during "Flight on a Dead Pigeon" (1.06). The "cowboy" bounty hunter Jimmy Joe Walker (Wings Hauser) carries a stainless Security Six in "Dead or Alive" (1.08). One of Demarest's mobsters uses a Security Six in "High Bleacher Man" (1.09). Dan Colson (Ed O'Neill), the crooked parole officer in "The Garbage Man" (1.11) also has a Security Six. Tommy Largo (Madison Mason) threatens Hunter and McCall with a suppressed Security Six snubnose in "The Last Kill" (1.17).
(Note: The gun in the last 3 images used by Wings Hauser is actually a stainless Ruger Redhawk .44 Magnum with a 5 1/2 inch barrel, not a Security Six.)
Although he never uses it, "cowboy" bounty hunter Jimmy Joe Walker (Wings Hauser) keeps a Single Action Army in his trunk in "Dead or Alive" (1.08). A Single Action Army using .45 Colt silicone bullets, described as "cop killers" by Hunter and McCall, is the sidearm of serial killer Deke Broder (Robert Dryer, no relation to series star Fred Dryer) in "The Shooter" (1.10).
LAPD Sgt. Rick Hunter (Fred Dryer) uses a .357 Magnum Desert Eagle during some episodes of the first season, beginning with "Dead or Alive" (1.08). The Desert Eagle is explained to be a gift from his Mafia father at his graduation, causing McCall to lament that all she received was a set of encyclopedias. However, Hunter had been on the police force since at least the 1970s (and it is stated in the second season that his father was killed in 1971), making it very unlikely that he could have received a Desert Eagle, which weren't produced until 1982, at his police graduation.
In "High Bleacher Man" (1.09), Det. Terwilliger (James Whitmore Jr.) arms himself with a stainless Ruger Redhawk to guard Elton Gavin (Michael Baseleon), who grabs the Redhawk from Terwilliger's holster once he is no longer a witness.
When Hunter (Fred Dryer) disguises himself as a motorcycle cop to lure out the serial killer in "The Shooter" (1.10), he wears a Smith & Wesson Model 586 in his holster that becomes a Colt Python for close shots of it firing.
NYPD Sgt. Jackie Molinas (Dennis Franz) uses a Smith & Wesson Model 13 when he questions Scully (J.D. Hall) the taxi driver in "The Snow Queen, Pt.1" (1.13). It is presumably a backup or throwaway weapon he obtained so that it wouldn't be traced back to him after killing Scully. One of the drug dealing Chinese thugs killed in the restaurant in "The Beach Boy" (1.15) has a Model 13.
Tommy Largo (Madison Mason) uses a (unplausible) suppressed .22 RG-24 (described by McCall as a ".22 throwaway") for his first hit committed in "The Last Kill" (1.16).
One of Demarest's thugs in "High Bleacher Man" (1.09) fires at Hunter and Gavin with a Heckler & Koch HK94A3 carbine chopped and converted to resemble a Heckler & Koch MP5A3.
The main weapon used by Hawaiian hitman Wes Kapano (Brett Baxter Clark) in "The Beach Boy" (1.15) is a MAC-11. In one scene, he has two magazines jungle-taped together.
Policeman-turned-hitman Gus Trancus (David Ackroyd) has a dismantled Remington Model 30 on his rented office desk when Hunter and McCall pay him an unexpected visit in "Hard Contract" (1.02).
After Hunter and McCall pick up Wally in "A Long Way From L.A." (1.04), Sheriff Cutter (Bo Svenson) shoots at them with his Winchester Model 70, which he had previously stated was the .30-06 rifle stolen by Wally for his escape. Hunter (Fred Dryer) fires a shot from it into a barrel, extracting the bullet to prove that Cutter's rifle had killed Wally.
A customized Winchester 1866 "Yellow Boy" with a large lever loop is used by the bounty hunter Jimmy Joe Walker (Wings Hauser) in the opening scenes of "Dead or Alive" (1.08).
A hitman hired by Nate Demarest (Richard Romanus) to kill Elton Gavin fires a sniper rifle at his hotel window in "High Bleacher Man" (1.09). (Just a plain hunting rifle with a telescopic sight.)
Demarest's lead thug in "High Bleacher Man" (1.09) fires an Ruger AC-556K at Hunter and Gavin before running out of ammunition. One of Louie the drug dealer's henchmen fires a Ruger AC-556 at Hunter and Molinas in "The Snow Queen, Pt. 2" (1.14).
In "Sniper" (1.19), Sgt. Dennis Balzer (Jack Starrett) uses an M16 (recognizable by the slab-side lower receiver and absence of a forward assist button) with Lone Star Ordnance A2 type handguards. At the end of the episode, Hunter (Fred Dryer) also handles this weapon. It is described in dialogue as firing a .223 NATO round and is always seen fired with a twenty round magazine and a scope.
One of the bank robbers keeps a lupara up his sleeve in the pilot episode. One of the weapons used by "cowboy" bounty hunter Jimmy Joe Walker (Wings Hauser) in "Dead or Alive" (1.08) is a lupara.
One of Demarest's mobsters who shoots at Hunter and Gavin in "High Bleacher Man" (1.09) uses a Remington 870 Folding Stock with an extended magazine tube.
Brian Carmichael (Ron Karabatsos), keeps a Double Barreled Shotgun behind his bar, the Irish Rose, in "Hard Contract" (1.02). Several posse members carry Double Barreled Shotguns while searching for Wally in "A Long Way From L.A." (1.04). In the same episode, Sheriff Cutter has one on his gun rack. A bank robber named David Blackfoot, or "The Chief", uses one to defend himself while hiding out in "Dead or Alive" (1.08).
One of Deakin's thugs in "Flight on a Dead Pigeon" (1.06) carries a pistol-gripped Mossberg 500 Cruiser. One of the thugs attempting to rob the grocery store in "The Snow Queen, Pt. 1" (1.13) also has a pistol-gripped Mossberg shotgun, which Hunter (Fred Dryer) takes and fires.
