Handguns
Smith & Wesson Model 10
Deputy U.S. Marshal Teddy Daniels (Leonardo DiCaprio) carries a Smith & Wesson Model 10 revolver with a 4-inch barrel as his sidearm. In the book and film it has a dent in the barrel where a suspect shot at him. In reality, Teddy's revolver is a toy gun given by the staff of the psychiatric hospital, and breaks easily during the climax of the film.
Colt Detective Special
Deputy U.S. Marshal Chuck Aule (Mark Ruffalo) carries a Colt Detective Special as his sidearm. It can be identified by the grips when he hands the gun to the guards.
Walther PP
The Nazi commandant uses a nickel-plated Walther PP to commit suicide in Dachau concentration camp flashback; Teddy Daniels (Leonardo DiCaprio) moves it away from the commandant to prolong his death. The filmmakers selected the nickel-plated model due to the way it contrasted with the wooden floor of the office despite being historically inaccurate that back during WWII nickel-plated Walthers did not exist yet.
Rifles
M1903 Springfield
Many of Shutter Island guards are armed with M1903 Springfield rifles. Teddy Daniels is also seen with one near the end of the film.
M1 Carbine
In the flashbacks, some of the U.S. Army troops entering the concentration camp are armed with M1 Carbines.
M1 Garand
In the flashbacks to Dachau concentration camp, Teddy Daniels (Leonardo DiCaprio) and some U.S. soldiers are armed with M1 Garand rifles.
Winchester Model 1894
The Shutter Island guard at the entrance to Ward C carries a Winchester Model 1894.
Shotguns
Winchester Model 1897
Several guards in Shutter Island are briefly seen with Winchester Model 1897 shotguns.
