Revision as of 21:57, 12 October 2008
The following guns were used in the television series The X-Files:
Taurus PT92
For the first half of the first season, FBI Special Agent Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) uses an older model Taurus PT92 9mm.
Glock 19
Midway through the first season, Mulder switches to a Glock 19, which he uses for the remaining episodes of the season.
This gun is also carried by some of the elite soldiers in Episode 9 of Season 1, "Fallen Angel".
Walther PPK
For the entire first season, FBI Special Agent Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) carries a compact pistol that appears to be either a Walther PPK, or otherwise some type of PPK clone.
Also Fox Mulder can be seen carrying a Walther PPK as a back up pistol to his main sidearm, kept in an ankle holster.
It is also worth noting in Season 8 episode 11 titled "The Gift" flashbacks are shown of Fox Mulder using his PPK to shoot and attempt to kill a soul eater who cured him of a terminal disease, to relieve it of it's suffering. After which Agent Dogget discovers the Walther taped under Mulder's bathroom sink in it's holster.
SIG-Sauer P226
Beginning with the first episode of Season 2, Mulder starts using a SIG-Sauer P226, which becomes his sidearm for almost the entire show afterwards (with the exception of Season 3). Many of the other FBI Agents throughout the show, including Agent John Doggett (Robert Patrick) also use P226s.
SIG-Sauer P228
Beginning with Season 2, Scully starts using a SIG-Sauer P228, which subsequently becomes her sidearm for the entire show (Season 3 notwithstanding). Some of the other FBI Agents on the show are also seen using them.
Smith & Wesson 5906
Although they use SIG-Sauer pistols in Season 2, both Mulder and Scully switch to using Smith & Wesson 5906s as their sidearms for all of Season 3. After this season, they resume using their respective SIG pistols (P226 for Mulder, P228 for Scully).
Colt Model 733 Commando
Several episodes in Season 1 feature appearances of Colt Model 733 "Commandos", usually in the hands of military personnel and SWAT officers. There's a great close-up of this gun in the second episode, "Deep Throat".
Colt AR-15 Sporter
There are many episodes, especially in the early seasons, where U.S. military personnel are armed with Colt AR-15 Sporter rifles with M16A2-style hand guards, standing in for the real M16A2 service rifles that the soldiers should be using. You can tell because the receivers of the guns don't have the "fencing" around the magazine release", plus they lack the A2-style rear sights and shell deflectors.
Norinco Type 84S
The Norinco Type 84S can be seen in limited numbers in the hands of the Russian guards at the Tunguska gulag in the episode "Terma".
There is also a recurring appearance of a folding-stock Type 84 that has a long RPK-style barrel. It appears several times in the 4th and 5th seasons, most prominently in the episode "Folie A Deux" where it is used by a hostage-taker.
M16A1 rifle
M16A2 rifle
Beretta 92FS pistol
Colt M1911A1 pistol
Heckler & Koch MP5 submachine gun
There are lots of Heckler & Koch MP5A3 submachine guns in many episodes. Some of the non-firing MP5s appear to be Tokyo Marui spring-powered airsoft guns, though of course real MP5s are used in firing scenes. In one episode, Scully wields an MP5A3 with a Surefire forearm during a scene where she and Mulder participate in an FBI takedown of a militia group.
Blue Beret team's weapons
In the first episode of Season 2, "Little Green Men", Mulder and Scully are chased away from a UFO landing site by a Blue Beret Crash Retrieval Unit. The Blue Berets are armed with a number of weapons that were considered "futuristic" back in the early-90s when the episode was made, including a Steyr AUG, a Calico M960A with a laser sight, and at least two Mossberg 500 Bullpup shotguns. The leader of the team is seen using another airsoft MP5 (see above).
