Al Capone (Stephen Graham) arms himself with a Model 10, carried in the front of his waistband, for most of the first season before switching to a M1911 in the finale. Bootlegger Mickey Doyle (Paul Sparks) carries one in the pilot episode, which Nucky (Steve Buscemi) takes from him. Frankie Yale (Joseph Riccobene) also uses a Model 10 at the climax of the pilot episode to shoot "Big Jim" Colosimo.

Davey Murdoch (Billy Smith) is told to drop his Smith & Wesson .44 Double Action by Jimmy and Capone in the pilot episode.
Smith & Wesson Model 10 HB
Agent Nelson Van Alden (Michael Shannon) fires a Smith & Wesson Model 10 HB (anachronistic for the 1920s era) at the firing range with the other Prohibition agents in training during the pilot episode.
Colt Model 1903 Pocket Hammerless
Jimmy Darmody (Michael Pitt) carries a Colt Model 1903 Pocket Hammerless in a shoulder holster. It is differentiated from the .380 ACP Model 1908 in "Home" (1.07), when Richard Harrow (Jack Huston) asks Jimmy what type of pistol he is carrying and Jimmy responds: "A Colt 1903". In the fourth season, "Nucky" Thompson (Steve Buscemi) begins carrying a nickel-plated Model 1903 with pearl grips.
M1911
M1911 pistols are used throughout the series by many characters. Nelson Van Alden (Michael Shannon) carries one in a shoulder holster, both during and after his career as a Prohibition Bureau agent. "Chalky" White (Michael K. Williams) carries a matched set of nickel 1911s, notably using them to capture Meyer Lansky in "The Emerald City" (1.10). Capone (Stephen Graham) uses one for an assassination in "A Return to Normalcy" (1.12), and the M1911 becomes his standard sidearm through most of the show's run. Some of Sheridan's men in "Family Limitation" (1.06) carry M1911s. Lansky (Anatol Yusef) himself uses a chrome M1911 during the standoff in "The Age of Reason" (2.06). Clifford Lathrop (Curt Bouril), the Department of Justice agent assisting Esther Randolph, carries a M1911 in a shoulder holster.
After taking control of Atlantic City during the second season, Jimmy Darmody (Michael Pitt) upgrades from a Colt 1903 to a 1911, carried in condition one in a large brown leather shoulder holster.
Smith & Wesson .32 Hand Ejector
"Lucky" Luciano (Vincent Piazza) carries a Smith & Wesson .32 Hand Ejector, notably seen in "Belle Femme" (1.09) when Gillian Darmody (Gretchen Mol) takes it away from him.
Remington 1866 Derringer
Eddie Kessler (Anthony Laciura), Nucky's faithful German valet/bodyguard, fires a Remington 1866 Derringer at the D'Alessio brothers when they attempt to kill Nucky in "Belle Femme" (1.09).

The youngest D'Alessio brother, Pius D'Alessio (Nicholas Martino), desperately attempts to load his Colt New Service in "A Return to Normalcy" (1.12).
Savage 1907
One of Masseria's nephews, Incrocci (Mario Macaluso), threatens Jimmy with a Savage 1907 in New York in "Ourselves Alone" (2.02).
Webley Mk VI
Richard Harrow (Jack Huston) mentions a "Webley .455" as one of his handguns, finally drawing a Webley Mk VI during a showdown with Sleater in "A Dangerous Maid" (2.03).
Smith & Wesson Model 2 Double Action
Owen Sleater (Charlie Cox), the ex-IRA soldier working for Nucky, carries a Smith & Wesson Model 2 Double Action as his primary weapon.
Colt Police Positive

Smith & Wesson M1917
Lucky Luciano (Vincent Piazza) has upgraded his .32 S&W Hand Ejector to a .45-caliber Smith & Wesson M1917 by 1921 as seen in "The Age of Reason" (2.06). Vito Scalersio, the assassin sent by Capone to Atlantic City, uses an M1917 in "Peg of Old" (2.07).
Smith & Wesson Victory Model
Richard Harrow (Jack Huston) uses a Smith & Wesson Victory Model throughout "To the Lost" (2.12), carried in his waistband. It is differentiated from a standard Model 10 by the grips, finish, and lanyard ring. As the Victory Model was developed for World War II, its appearance in an episode set in the summer of 1921 is an anachronism.
Colt Pocket Positive
Nucky Thompson (Steve Buscemi) uses a nickel Colt Pocket Positive in "To the Lost" (2.12), carried in a shoulder holster.
Shotguns
Double Barreled Shotgun
Many characters use full length side-by-side Double Barreled Shotguns throughout the series. Jimmy Darmody (Michael Pitt) uses one when ambushing Rothstein's truck drivers in the pilot episode. Margaret Schroeder (Kelly Macdonald) uses a double-barreled shotgun that she hands off to Nucky (Steve Buscemi) in "Gimcrack and Bunkum" (2.05). In the same episode, a hunter named Glenmore (Bill Camp) also carries one. Prohibition agents carry them during the first season, including Agent Sebso (Erik Weiner) during the raid in "Nights in Ballygran" (1.05). Deputy Halloran (Adam Mucci) carries one in "Anastasia" (1.04). Ignacious D'Alessio (Edoardo Ballerini) uses one to rob the casino in "Hold Me In Paradise" (1.08)
Browning Auto-5
Browning Auto-5 shotguns are used by several characters throughout the series. In the pilot episode, Al Capone (Stephen Graham) carries a Browning Auto-5, as do several of Rothstein's drivers - including Davey Murdoch (Billy Smith) - and several Prohibition agents. Richard Harrow (Jack Huston) carries a cut-down Auto-5 in "21" (2.01) and "What Does the Bee Do?" (2.04).
Winchester Model 1912 Riot

Richard Harrow also uses one against the D'Alessio brothers in the episode "Return to Normalcy" (1.12). In "Battle of the Century" (2.09), Waxey Gordon's assassin Alfred Gordetsky (Scott Burik) uses one against Manny Horovitz.
Winchester Model 1912 Full Length
Richard Harrow (Jack Huston) takes a full size Winchester Model 1912 when he goes "hunting" in "Gimcrack and Bunkum" (2.05). A full size Model '12 is also used by a Klansman in "21" (2.01).
Winchester Model 1897 Riot
A woman who works in Chalky's warehouse uses a riot Winchester Model 1897 in "21" (2.01).

Submachine Guns
M1921AC Thompson

As Nucky himself comments, "No relation."
Rifles
M1917 Enfield
Richard Harrow uses a scoped M1917 Enfield to kill a man in a restaurant, having previously named it in a list of firearms he owns along with a Colt 1903, Roth-Steyr, Smith & Wesson "Triple Lock", and a Mauser 1914.
In "21" (2.01), "Chalky" White (Michael K. Williams) picks one up from a fallen warehouse guard to shoot a KKK member.

Other
Mark I Trench Knife
