Castle - Season 2: Difference between revisions
A [[Glock 26]] serves as Det. Beckett's backup gun, it's most notably seen when she hands it to Castle to defend himself in "Boom" (S2E18), when they enter the warehouse he's hiding in. He uses it to shoot Kate's Glock 19 out of the killer's hand. Afterwards, Castle reveals that "he was aiming for his head".

:''Noteworthy is that his ''"Aiming for the head"'' remark is the third [[Firefly]]/[[Serenity]] reference in the series. The first two took place during the episode "Vampire Weekend" when Castle wore his Mal costume, and the second was a catalyst sitting on his bookshelf. A catalyst is required for any Firefly class ship to run, and was a large part of'' Out of Gas' ''story arc.''

Several NYPD detectives including Kevin Ryan (Seamus Dever) use a Glock 17 as their sidearm in Season 2. Criminals also like them, one was used with a suppressor to murder Roger Farraday (Dean Cates) in A Deadly Game (S2E24).
Detective Kate Beckett (Stana Katic) carries the more compact Glock 19. Ryan and Esposito also appear to carry the pistol in some episodes. Det. Tom Demming (Michael Trucco) also carries one.

Afterwards, Castle reveals that "he was aiming for his head" (presumably another one of the many references to Nathan Fillion's previous series Firefly.)
In "The Third Man" (S2E14), Noel du Preez (Michael Enright) uses a compensated M1911-type to shoot at the team when he thinks they're robbers stealing from his store.
Former NYPD officer, and Esposito's former partner Ike Thornton (Aaron D. Spears) is seen with a Colt Government Model during in "Den of Thieves" (S2E21), off camera Esposito uses it to wound dirty Lt. Holliwell.
The killer uses a Ruger P90 during his activities in "Boom!" (S2E18). FBI Special Agent Jordan Shaw (Dana Delany) briefly uses it near the end of the same episode.
NYPD officers are occasionally carrying the SIG-Sauer P226. After disarming an officer, Rathborne holds Castle hostage with one in "Sucker Punch" (S2E13).
A Smith & Wesson 3913 is owned by Jeremy Preswick (Marc Blucas), and used by Darius Langley (John Paul Pitoc) to kill Victor Fink and shoot Preswick in "The Fifth Bullet" (S2E11).
Castle (Nathan Fillion) is briefly seen dressed in a "Space Cowboy" costume, a deliberate nod to that worn by Captain Malcolm "Mal" Reynolds in the series Firefly (Fillion's former television series). Castle is even seen wielding the modified Taurus 85 during the opening sequence of "Vampire Weekend" (S2E06). In Firefly, the revolver was known as a "Moses Brothers Self-Defense Engine Frontier Model B". Castle's daughter tells him that he wore that costume five years ago.
An Heckler & Koch MP5A4 with a weaponlight, and Navy trigger group was used by a drug dealer while stealing a victim's body in Season 2's premiere "Deep in Death" (S2E01).
During the events of "A Deadly Game" (S2E24), an MP5K is found in the car of Roger Farraday (Dean Cates). It was issued to him as part of a "spycation" where Farraday, under the guise of CIA hitman Sean Caldwell, was supposed to "assassinate" a foreign minister with it.
Esposito (Jon Huertas), as well as most NYPD ESU officers use M4A1's when needed. FBI HRT agents can be seen wielding both M4A1's and HK416's during "Tick, Tick, Tick..." (S2E17) and "Boom!" (S2E18).
In "Vampire Weekend" (S2E06), Esposito (Jon Huertas) is seen carrying an MGC M16 replica fitted with an M203 grenade launcher during Castle's Halloween party while dressed up as a US Marine (an in-joke as Huertas portrayed US Marine Sgt. Antonio Espera in the HBO miniseries Generation Kill).
