The following firearms were used in Season Two of the television series "The X-Files."
Pistols
Colt M1911A1 pistol
Seen in the episode "Sleepless" (Episode 2.04).
SIG-Sauer P226
In Season 2, Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) started using a SIG-Sauer P226. This weapon first appeared in the Season 2 premier "Little Green Men", when Mulder tried in vain to shoot an alien with his newly-issued P226 (despite SIGs' "Hell and Back" reliability, firearms do not function when UFOs are around in The X-Files). Following this episode, Mulder carried the P226 for the entirety of the show, with the exception of Season 3, when he and Scully both used Smith & Wesson 5906s.
SIG-Sauer P228
Beginning with Season 2, Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) started using a SIG-Sauer P228, which subsequently became her sidearm for the entire show (Season 3 notwithstanding, when she and Mulder both used Smith & Wesson 5906s). Alex Krycek (Nicholas Lea), Walter Skinner (Mitch Pileggi) and some of the other FBI Agents on the show also used the P228. Scully used a P228 from episode 2.03 "Blood" until episode 3.01 "The Blessing Way", and then again from episode 6.01 "The Beginning".
SIG-Sauer P229
Mr. X (Steven Williams) carries a SIG-Sauer P229, identifying it explicitly in episode 2.08 "One Breath" as a "high-capacity compact SIG-Sauer .40-caliber weapon." Although the P229 strongly resembles the SIG-Sauer P228 carried by Scully and several other characters, the P228 is only available in 9.19mm, not .40-caliber.
Smith & Wesson 5904
In the Season 2 episode "Duane Barry", Duane Barry (Steve Railsback) carries a Smith & Wesson 5904 that he took from a guard at the mental institute.
Submachine Guns
Calico M955A
In the first episode of Season 2, "Little Green Men", Mulder and Scully were chased away from the Arecibo radio telescope site in Puerto Rico by a Blue Beret Crash Retrieval Unit. The Blue Berets were armed with a number of weapons that were considered "futuristic" back in the mid-1990s when the episode was made, including a Steyr AUG, a Calico M955A with a laser sight, and at least two Mossberg 500 Bullpup shotguns. The leader of the team used another airsoft MP5 (see above).
Rifles
M16A1 rifle
The M16A1 rifle was used on a regular basis throughout The X-Files as either a military and/or SWAT weapon. For example, M16A1 rifles can be seen in the Season 2 episode "Sleepless" (Episode 2.04).
Steyr AUG
In the first episode of Season 2, "Little Green Men", Mulder and Scully were chased away from the Arecibo radio telescope site in Puerto Rico by a Blue Beret Crash Retrieval Unit. The Blue Berets were armed with a number of weapons that were considered "futuristic" back in the mid-1990s when the episode was made, including a Steyr AUG, a Calico M955A with a laser sight, and at least two Mossberg 500 Bullpup shotguns. The leader of the team used another airsoft MP5 (see above).
Shotguns
Mossberg 500 Bullpup
In the first episode of Season 2, "Little Green Men", Mulder and Scully were chased away from the Arecibo radio telescope site in Puerto Rico by a Blue Beret Crash Retrieval Unit. The Blue Berets were armed with a number of weapons that were considered "futuristic" back in the mid-1990s when the episode was made, including a Steyr AUG, a Calico M955A with a laser sight, and at least two Mossberg 500 Bullpup shotguns. The leader of the team used another airsoft MP5 (see above). In addition to this, government agents use the Mosberg 500 Bullpup in many other episodes.
