The following firearms can be seen in the film Sherlock Holmes: A Game Of Shadows:
Webley Mk. V
Sherlock Holmes (Robert Downey Jr.) can be seen with a Webley Mk V in the trailer after disarming a man that previously wield it. He is also seen wielding it in a promotional poster.
Webley Bulldog
Dr. John Watson (Jude Law) draws his Webley Bulldog on Holmes (Robert Downey Jr.) aboard the train. He used the same gun in the last film.
Mauser C96/ M712 Schnellfeuer
Sherlock Holmes (Robert Downey Jr.) loads a Mauser C96 in the trailer. He can also be seen holding it in several promotion photos. The use of this gun in the movie is rather anachronistic as its set in 1892 and the C96 was first produced in 1896.
In a scene in an arms factory the pistol is introduced as being select fire and having a detachable box magazine making it the M712 Schnellfeuer. This furthers the anachronism as this variety was not introduced until 1927 for the Spanish made variety and 1923 for the Mauser produced design.
Mauser Gewehr 1888
Mauser Gewehr 1888s are used by Austrian soldiers and several men. Watson (Jude Law) later takes one from a man and uses it during the forest scenes.
Maxim 1895
An Austrian soldier is seen manning a Maxim 1895 with brass barrel, barrel sleeve, and spade grips when Holmes and Watson are aboard a train.
Custom Sniper Rifle
Professor Moriarty (Jared Harris) uses a custom sniper rifle in the trailer.
