Error creating thumbnail: File missing Sherlock Holmes: A Game Of Shadows (2011)Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows Sherlock Holmes directed by Guy Ritchie and starring Robert Downey Jr. , Jude Law , Noomi Rapace and Jared Harris.
The following weapons were used in the film Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows :
Handguns Webley Mk V An attacker (uncredited) pulls a Webley Mk V on Sherlock Holmes (Robert Downey Jr. ), but Holmes is able to take it away. Madam Simza Heron (Noomi Rapace ) hands Holmes another one before he and Watson (Jude Law ) infiltrate the Meinhard factory.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing .455 Webley Mk.V revolver. Error creating thumbnail: File missing The one-eyed attacker with his Webley. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Error creating thumbnail: File missing Sherlock Holmes holding the Webley revolver. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Holmes handing the now empty revolver back. Note the shape of the grips. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Error creating thumbnail: File missing Holmes with another Webley Mk V in the Meinhard factory. Webley Bulldog Mary Watson (Kelly Reilly ) pulls out Watson's Webley Bulldog . Dr. Watson later uses it to fend off the assassins.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Webley "British" Bulldog Revolver. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Mary finds her husband's revolver. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Error creating thumbnail: File missing Mary holds the Bulldog on one of the assassins before her husband tosses him off of the train. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Watson checks the hallway. Error creating thumbnail: File missing That's... unfortunate. Webley No. 5 Holmes fires upon the assassins with a what appears to be a Webley No.5 revolver before handing it off to Watson.
File:0bd1cce5c59b8d2ac79a613bc71209e2.jpg Nickle-plated Webley No.5 with Adams type ejector. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Holmes hands Watson his revolver. Sharps Pepperbox Sherlock Holmes (Robert Downey, Jr. ) carries a Sharps Pepperbox pistol while dressed in drag on the train to Brighton, and Watson (Jude Law ) uses it to disable one of Moriarty's henchmen manning the machine gun.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Sharps Model 1 - .22 Short Error creating thumbnail: File missing Holmes checks the hallway with his drawn pepperbox. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Watson with the pepperbox as he and Holmes take cover. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Watson fires on the assassins with the pepperbox. Mauser C96 Colonel Sebastian Moran (Paul Anderson ) confronts Holmes with a Mauser C96 in the Meinhard factory. The use of this gun in the movie is rather anachronistic as its set in 1891 and the C96 was first produced in 1896. It is implied that the C96 design is a prototype developed by Moriarty's weapons designers for the impending war he desires to start.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Mauser C96 "Broomhandle" - 7.63x25mm Mauser. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Moran boasts to Holmes about his brand new automatic pistol. Error creating thumbnail: File missing A box full of C96 pistols. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Holmes picks up a C96. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Holmes fires his C96 as he escapes the Meinhard factory. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Holmes loads a magazine into his C96. Most C96's load from the top. Mle 1892 Revolver Anarchist Claude Ravache (Thierry Neuvic ) shoots himself with a Mle 1892 Revolver . Watson later picks it up to confront the other anarchists. Watson still has this revolver, or another copy when he and Holmes infiltrate the Meinhard factory.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Modele d’Ordonnance Mle 1892 Revolver Error creating thumbnail: File missing Spoiler? Error creating thumbnail: File missing Watson opens fire on the anarchists. Error creating thumbnail: File missing A shot of the revolver tucked in Watson's pants. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Watson with his revolver out while pinned down by Moran. Chamelot-Delvigne Model 1873 Andrzej (Vladimir 'Furdo' Furdik ) is armed with a Chamelot-Delvigne Model 1873 during the factory escape.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Chamelot-Delvigne Mle. 1873 (blued) - 11mm. This example appears to have a broken trigger return spring and something wrong with the loading gate. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Andrzej with his revolver. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Andrzej with his revolver, Watson with the custom SMG, and Holmes with a C96. Shotguns Winchester Model 1887 One of Moriarty's train hitmen tries to fire Winchester Model 1887 shotgun on Holmes and Watson, but sets himself on fire due to Holmes' sabotage.
File:1887Shotgun PaulNewman.jpg Winchester Model 1887 Shotgun. Error creating thumbnail: File missing The assassins retreat when Holmes opens fire. Error creating thumbnail: File missing The assassins with the Winchester 1887. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Here the markings on the barrel can be read, "12 GA, 22" 2 3/4" Rifles Mauser Gewehr 1888 Mauser Gewehr 1888s are used by the Meinhard guards and several men. Madam Simza, Holmes, Watson, and Moran use them during the factory escape.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Mauser Gewehr 1888 - 7.92x57mm Mauser. This sample was an issued rifle in the Ottoman Empire based in its stampings. This is a movie armory weapon. The version in the movie appeared to have a thicker barrel, like the German copies. Error creating thumbnail: File missing One of the twins (either Alexandre or Victor Carril) aims his Mauser rifle. Error creating thumbnail: File missing A factory guard aims his Mauser at the escaping team. Notice that the bolt is not fully closed. Since the rifle fired immediately afterwards anyway, it's probable that the film used CGI muzzle flashes. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Holmes (or at least his stuntman) deflects a bayonet thrust. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Holmes ejects a spent round before disarming the user. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Holmes then chambers a new round. The receiver is marked "SPANDAU 1890". Error creating thumbnail: File missing Watson aiming a captured Mannlicher Gewehr 1888. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Moran aims his rifle at the escaping party. Customized Martini-Henry Sniper Rifle Col. Moran (Paul Anderson ) uses a Customized Martini-Henry sniper rifle , which is fitting since he is an veteran of the Anglo-Afghan war. He's also described as the best shot in the army before his dismissal (which Watson erroneously refers to as a dishonorable discharge, which is only reserved for enlisted men.)
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Martini-Henry "Sporter" .577-.450 caliber modified by the famous London gunsmith J. Rigby Error creating thumbnail: File missing The rifle in its case. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Moran begins to assemble the rifle. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Moran adds a suppressor to the rifle. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Moran takes aim. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Moran loads a round. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Moran fires the sniper rifle. Other Maxim 1895 Two of Moriarty's gunmen man a Maxim 1895 with brass water jacket, and spade grips in an attempt to kill Dr. and Mrs. Watson.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Maxim Model 1895 - 7.92x57mm Mauser Error creating thumbnail: File missing The assassins reveal the Maxim. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Moriarty's gunman opens up on Holmes and Watson. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Error creating thumbnail: File missing The Maxim's ammunition belt with Holmes' surprise. The use of spitzer rounds in 1891 is an anachronism. No. 2 Mk II Hale Grenade The assassins on the train are equipped with what appear to be modified No. 2 Mk II Hale Grenades. Holmes uses one to set a booby trap.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Holmes' booby trap in place. Error creating thumbnail: File missing A bag of grenades. Custom Submachine Gun The train assassins and later Watson use what appear to be steampunk inspired custom submachine guns. They load from the top, and appear to be only capable of being fired from the hip.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Watson fires the SMG during the factory escape. Error creating thumbnail: File missing There appears to be a handgrip on the left side of the gun. Gatling Gun Meinhard guards use Gatling Guns fed from Broadwell drums.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing An 1865 Gatling Gun. Error creating thumbnail: File missing The Meinhard guards unveil the Gatling gun. Error creating thumbnail: File missing One of the guards fits the Broadwell drum. Error creating thumbnail: File missing The Gatling Gun lays down fire on the escaping party. (Why the guards are using a Gatling gun when they have access to Maxim guns is unknown.) 7.58 cm Minenwerfer Meinhard guards attack the escaping party with 7.58 cm Minenwerfers. This is yet another anachronism, as this weapon wasn't introduced until 1909.
