Handguns
Airsoft SIG-Sauer P226R (L105A2 stand-in)
Dr. Watson (Martin Freeman) owns a SIG-Sauer P226R pistol, in which Sherlock Holmes (Benedict Cumberbatch) occasionally uses the weapon. This same prop also shows up on several occasions in the hands of minor characters.
Trivia: Given Watson's military background, this is likely meant as a stand-in for the SIG-Sauer L105A2, which was the British Army's standard issue pistol at the time the first two seasons were filmed, currently being phased out in favor of the Glock 17. Yet, owing to the strict firearms controls in the UK and the reduced insurance cost during filming, the Tokyo Marui P226R airsoft pistol was used as a stand-in, hence why the finish and markings are mismatched.
Sherlock casually fires Watson's weapon.
STI Edge (Cigarette Lighter)
The cabbie (Philip Davis) in S1E1 uses a novelty cigarette lighter disguised as an STI Edge.
Bruni/BBM "ME-8 Police" blank firing gun
At the end of S1E2, General Shan (Sarah Lam) uses a Bruni/BBM "ME-8 Police", an 8mm blank-firing gun modeled after the Walther PPK.
Glock 17
A number of Glock 17 pistols are prominently seen in the hands of CIA agents and armed police officers in Season 2.
Sherlock:"Yes." (Sherlock fires Agent Neilson's weapon into the air.) "On their way!"
Watson: "For God's sake..."
Sherlock: "Oh, shut up, it's quick." (S2E1)
Sherlock:"My hostage!"
Watson:"Hostage, yes. That works."
Sherlock (Benedict Cumberbatch) and Watson (Martin Freeman) make their escape from police custody after Sherlock disarms a CO19 Officer of his Glock. (S2E3)
Two-Tone Glock 17
Detective Inspector Lestrade (Rupert Graves) uses a 3rd Generation two-tone Glock 17 at the end of S2E2.
Beretta 92FS Inox
Henry Knight (Russell Tovey) uses a Beretta 92FS Inox in S2E2 when he thinks that the gigantic hound is outside his home. Judging from the color and reflectivity of the finish, this is likely the Tokyo Marui airsoft replica of the 92FS Inox. Moriarty also uses a 92FS Inox during the second season finale.
M1911A1 (Unidentified Variant)
A hitman disguised as a repair man in S2E3 has a suppressed M1911A1 pistol stored in his tool box. Judging from the markings and the screws in the slide, this is likely a blank-firing replica.
Submachine Guns
Heckler & Koch MP5A3
Multiple H&K MP5A3 submachine guns, outfitted with Surefire flashlight fore-ends and EoTech sights are seen being used by the CO19 Armed Response Unit throughout the second season finale.
Rifles
AK Variant
During Dr. Watson's flashback to his tour in Afghanistan, an ANA soldier is seen using a variant of the AK-47.
AK-47
One of the terrorist at the end of S2E1 is armed with an AK-47 rifle. As with the P226, this is likely an airsoft gun.
L85A2
A small number of L85A2 rifles are seen throughout the series.
Heckler & Koch G36C
Some of the soldiers at the Baskerville Research Facility are armed with Heckler & Koch G36C assault rifles.
Accuracy International Arctic Warfare Covert
An assassin under Moriarty's command is seen using an Accuracy International Arctic Warfare Covert sniper rifle.
Machine Guns
L7A2
Several British Army Soldiers in Afghanistan are seen with L7A2 machine guns.
L110A1
At least one soldier in Afghanistan is seen armed with an L110A1 (the U.K. designation for the FN Minimi Para).
