The following weapons are seen in 'Midsomer Murders:
Revolvers
Webley .38 Mk IV
Webley .38 Mk IV is a weapon of several murders in Ring Out Your Dead. The bullet from this revolver was identified as "Enfield .38", but the shape of the front sight allows to identify the gun as Webley. The story tells that there were two such revolvers but supposedly only one prop is used in the movie.
In Four Funerals and a Wedding Tom Barnaby (John Nettles), who is a guest of honor on the fair in Broughton, fires a blank-firing revolver to start the race. This revolver looks like a converted Webley .38 Mk IV with 4" barrel though it differs in several details including the shape of trigger guard.
Webley .455 Mk VI
Webley .455 Mk VI is seen in Shot at Dawn both in the flashback scene that takes place during the WW1 and in modern time. The revolver was carried by Lt. Duggie Hammond (Josh Stanley) in 1916, then it was preserved in Hammond's family museum and used as the weapon of murder in modern day. The police expert correctly identyfied it as "a .455 service revolver produced about 1916".

Beretta 92SB is used by Tony Carter (Matthew Marsh) during the bank robbery in Painted in Blood. Its round trigger guard and the shape of the front sight match 92SB model but due to strict UK firearms law this pistol is supposed to be a blank firing version.
