Beretta 92FS
Christopher Moltisanti (Michael Imperioli) carries a suppressed Beretta 92FS during the opening robbery in A Hit is a Hit (1.10). Paulie (Tony Sirico) uses a Beretta when he is pulled over by a policeman he is friendly with in The Happy Wanderer (2.06) and when he, Tony, and Silvio execute Pussy in Funhouse (2.13). Furio Giunta (Federico Castelluccio) carries one when escorting a drug dealer from the Crazy Horse nightclub in "The Telltale Moozadell" (3.09). Benny Fazio and Petey LaRosa use Berettas to shoot Credenzo Curtis and Stanley Johnson in the Meadowlands in Whitecaps (4.13). Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini) uses a suppressed Beretta during "the thing" he is told to do during his dream in The Test Dream (5.11). Vito Spatafore (Joseph R. Gannascoli) packs a Beretta 92FS when he goes on the lam in Mr. and Mrs. John Sacrimoni Request... (6.05). (IMFDB thanks The Golden Closet for providing the documentation on this gun, as well as the image seen below.)
Phil Leotardo (Frank Vincent) uses a suppressed Beretta Inox to murder Angelo Garepe (Joe Santos) in The Test Dream (5.11). This scene is similar to how Frank Vincent's character was killed in Goodfellas. Silvio Dante (Steven Van Zandt) uses a Beretta 92FS Inox to kill Adriana La Cerva (Drea de Matteo) for going to the FBI in Long Term Parking (5.12). Phil Leotardo (Frank Vincent) draws one when he pays a visit to Tony Blundetto's hideout in All Due Respect (5.13)
When going to visit his Uncle Junior in Meadowlands (1.04), Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini) checks his FEG R9, a Hungarian copy of the Browning Hi-Power, before entering, heeding Junior's previous advice to "come heavy or not come at all". Paulie (Tony Sirico) also uses one when he and Christopher kill Mikey Palmice in I Dream of Jeannie Cusamano (1.13). (IMFDB thanks The Golden Closet for providing the documentation on this gun).
In Sentimental Education (5.06), Carmela (Edie Falco) takes a Colt MK IV Series 80 Tony keeps hidden in the house and sticks it underneath a pillow before going to sleep.
One of the Russian gangsters (Sasha Nesterov) who intimidates Christopher in Denial, Anger, Acceptance (1.03) carries a CZ 83, which he reveals to be unloaded.
Christopher Moltisanti (Michael Imperioli) uses a Desert Eagle during a truck hi-jacking in 46 Long (1.02) to hold up the driver (Charles Santy). His rapper friend Massive Genius (Bokeem Woodbine) also has a customized Desert Eagle with a scope attachment. The Russian mobster Valery (Vitali Baganov) has an ornate Desert Eagle with gold-plated features (similar to the gangsters' Desert Eagles in The Boondock Saints) in Pine Barrens (3.11).
Paulie (Tony Sirico) uses a suppressed Glock 17 during 46 Long (1.02). Homicide detective Vin Makazian (John Heard) has a Glock 17 in his holster, seen only when he dumps the bag containing his badge, handcuffs, and gun after his arrest in Nobody Knows Anything (1.11). FBI agent Mike Waldrup (Will Arnett) has a Glock 17 in his shoulder holster, seen in For All Debts Public and Private (4.01).
Glock pistols are the most used guns on the show, with the 9x19mm Glock 19 being most common variant.
Season 1: Christopher Moltisanti (Michael Imperioli) uses a Glock 19 to kill Emil Kolar in the pilot episode. Brendan Filone (Anthony DeSando) uses two different Glock 19s during the truck hijackings in 46 Long (1.02). One of his other hijackers, Special K (J.D. Williams), during the second job drops his Glock, killing the driver Hector Anthony (Manny Silverio). Mikey Palmice (Al Sapienza) uses a Glock to shoot Brendan Filone in episode 3. One of the hitmen that attacks Tony, William "Petite" Clayborn (John Eddins), has a two-tone 9 mm Glock in Isabella (1.12). Silvio Dante (Steven Van Zandt) uses a suppressed two-tone Glock during the Jimmy Altieri hit in I Dream of Jeannie Cusamano (1.13).
Season 2: Gigi Cestone (John Fiore) shoots Philly Parisi (Dan Grimaldi) in the car in Guy Walks Into A Psychiatrist's Office... (2.01) with a Glock. Matt Bevilaqua (Lillo Brancato) and Sean Gismonte (Chris Tardio) use 9 mm Glocks in their assassination attempt on Christopher in Full Leather Jacket (2.08). Subsequently, Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini) and Big Pussy (Vincent Pastore) each use a Glock when pumping bullets into Matt in the next episode From Where to Eternity.
Season 3: Jackie Aprile, Jr. (Jason Cerbone) carries a Glock in Season 3, most notably using it when robbing Christopher's card game, and Paulie carries one in "Pine Barrens" (3.11).
Season 4: Christopher Moltisanti (Michael Imperioli) shoots Det. Lt. Barry Haydu (Tom Mason) with Haydu's own police-issue Glock 19, then plants the Glock in Haydu's hand to make it look like suicide in For All Debts Public and Private (4.01).
Season 6: Eugene Pontecorvo (Robert Funaro) uses a Glock when Christopher assigns him to the assassination in Members Only (6.01). Cary de Bartolo (James Vincent Romano), one of Paulie's guys, uses a Glock during the raid on the Colombian drug-laundering scheme in Mayham (6.03). Bobby (Steven R. Schirripa) uses a Glock to shoot an aspiring rapper to help his career in The Fleshy Part of the Thigh (6.04). Christopher fires a Glock 19 (which he had in an ankle holster) during his impromptu wine hiajcking with Tony Soprano in The Ride (6.09). Gerry Torciano (John Bianco) is killed by a Glock-using hitman in Stage 5 (6.14). Hoodlums with Glocks are used to kill Doc Santoro (Daniel P. Conte) and his bodyguard in Remember When (6.15). Christopher shoots J.T. Dolan (Tim Daly) with a Glock in Walk Like a Man (6.17). The hitmen that clipped Bobby in the toy store in The Blue Comet (6.20) use Glocks. In the same episode, Glocks are used by Italo to kill Phil's comare and her father, and one of the hitmen that shoots Silvio Dante.
Walden Belfiore (Frank John Hughes) uses a Kahr K9 to kill Phil Leotardo (Frank Vincent) at a gas station in Made in America (6.21). This was the 92nd, and final, murder of the series.
One of the carjackers in Commendatori (2.04) uses a M1911A1 which, for some reason, has its slide locked back. Christopher (Michael Imperioli) carries a 1911 when he and Paulie are lost in the woods in Pine Barrens (3.11). One of the FBI agents arresting Johnny Sack in All Due Respect (5.13) also carries a 1911. Paulie (Tony Sirico) carries a nickel-plated 1911, using it to shoot a waiter in Two Tonys (5.01), a Colombian drug dealer in Mayham (6.03), and to intimidate Jason Barone (Chris Diamantopoulos) in The Fleshy Part of the Thigh (6.04). During the editing process of Christopher's film Cleaver in Stage 5 (6.14), Daniel Baldwin can be seen brandishing a 1911.
Fabian Petruilio, a.k.a. "Fred Peters" (Tony Ray Rossi), the ex-mobster in the Witness Protection Program, carries a Ruger Mk II Pistol fitted with Pachmayr grips, which he contemplates killing Tony with in College (1.05).
Furio Giunta (Federico Castelluccio) uses a SIG-Sauer P225 to shoot out the kneecap of a pimp who owes Tony money in Big Girls Don't Cry (2.05). Bobby Bacala Sr. (Burt Young) uses a P225 when he is sent to kill Mustang Sally (and his friend Carlos) in Another Toothpick (3.05). Carlo Renzi (Louis Crugnali) uses a P225 when he, Jackie, and Dino rob Christopher's card game in Amour Fou (3.12).
An FBI agent busting into Pussy and Jimmy's bar in Nobody Knows Anything carries a SIG-Sauer P226. Janice Soprano (Aida Turturro) kills Richie Aprile (David Proval) with a SIG-Sauer in The Knight in White Satin Armor (2.12). Tony (James Gandolfini) uses a P226 to kill Pussy in Funhouse (2.13). One of the Colombian drug dealers in Mayham (6.03) uses a SIG, which is then picked up and used by Cary de Bartolo (James Vincent Romano). (IMFDB thanks The Golden Closet for providing the documentation on this gun, as well as the image seen below.)
Paulie (Tony Sirico) uses a SIG-Sauer P228 with a suppressor in A Hit is a Hit. Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini) takes another P228 out of his ceiling during the indictments in The Legend of Tennessee Moltisanti (1.08), hiding it in a hat box at his mother's nursing home apartment. Mikey Palmice (Al Sapienza) uses a P228 to kill Donnie Paduana inside his car in Isabella (1.12). In that same episode, Rasheen Ray (Touche) uses a P228 to try and kill Tony, later causing him to lament about the incident: "Two pricks with nine millimeters... my self-esteem is non-existant right now", referring to Ray's P228 and his partner's Glock 19. One of Phil's soldiers, Raymond "Ray-Ray" D'Abaldo (Rick Aiello), uses a P228 to shoot at Silvio Dante in The Blue Comet (6.20).
Big Pussy (Vincent Pastore) uses a suppressed Smith & Wesson 4043 (Stainless slide with alloy frame) when he and Paulie go to see Jerome and Arnaz in 46 Long (1.02). Antjuan (Sharif Rashed), a truck hijacker with Brendan Filone, uses one later in the same episode, holding it "gangster-style" until Brendan angrily corrects him.
A blued Smith & Wesson 5904 with a rounded trigger guard is visible at the top of Pussy's hidden armory in his garage, seen in From Where to Eternity (2.09).
Christopher Moltisanti (Michael Imperioli) carries a Smith & Wesson 5946 throughout the show. It is the one he uses when killing Mikey Palmice in I Dream of Jeannie Cusamano (1.13) and when he attacks Det. Lt. Barry Haydu in For All Debts Public and Private (4.01). Silvio (Steven Van Zandt) uses a 5943 when he, Paulie, and Tony kill Pussy in Funhouse (2.13). (IMFDB thanks The Golden Closet for providing the documentation on this gun).
Christopher Moltisanti (Michael Imperioli) shoots the bakery clerk in the foot with a Star Firestar M-43 in The Legend of Tennessee Moltisanti (1.08). (IMFDB thanks The Golden Closet for providing the documentation on this gun).
TRIVIA: The scene in the bakery also featured the first Sopranos screen appearance of actor Joseph R. Gannascoli, who played a bakery customer named "Gino". Mr. Gannascoli later returned to the series as one of the principle Sopranos characters Vito Spatafore.

This gun was fired onscreen in the episode The Legend of Tennesee Moltisanti (1.08) during the scene where Christopher loses his temper at a bakery employee and shoots him in the foot. (IMFDB thanks The Golden Closet for providing the documentation on this gun; contact them via their website for more detailed images and purchasing information on this item.)Error creating thumbnail: File missingChristopher points his Star Firestar at the bakery clerk.
Walther PPK
Christopher Moltisanti (Michael Imperioli) carries a stainless .380 Walther PPK in an ankle holster in the second season episode Full Leather Jacket (2.08) when he is shot at by Matt Bevilaqua and Sean Gismonte. (IMFDB thanks The Golden Closet for providing the documentation on this gun).
Silvio Dante (Steven Van Zandt) uses a stainless Walther PPK/S in The Blue Comet (6.20) while trying to defend himself from Phil's killers. (IMFDB thanks The Golden Closet for providing the documentation on this gun).
Jimmy Altieri (Joe Badalucco, Jr.) reaches for a Ruger SP101 snub from an ankle holster when he is set up to be murdered in I Dream of Jeannie Cusamano (1.13), but Christopher (Michael Imperioli) takes it away leaving Jimmy to be shot by Silvio's suppressed Glock. Jimmy seems to have a knack for keeping .357 revolvers in his ankle holster, as an FBI agent removed a Smith & Wesson Model 13 from an ankle holster two episodes previously. It is only seen briefly but the grips and the cylinder give it away as an SP101.
Christopher (Michael Imperioli) uses a snubnose Ruger Speed Six when robbing a college benefit concert with Jackie Aprile Jr. in Fortunate Son (3.03). In a 1982 flashback, a young Tony Soprano uses a snubnose Ruger Speed Six to commit his first murder, a bookie named Willie Overall (Herbert Rogers) in Remember When (6.15).
Salvatore "Mustang Sally" Intile (Brian Tarantina) keeps a Smith & Wesson Model 10 with a 3" barrel in his waistband, attempting to draw it as Bobby Sr. attacks him.
Richie Aprile (David Proval) carries a Smith & Wesson Model 36, seen most notably in Bust Out (2.10). Jackie Aprile, Jr. (Jason Carbone) is given a Model 36 by his uncle Ralph (Joe Pantoliano), who tells him the .38 isn't very intimidating but is very reliable and will "always get the job done". A Model 36 is also visible in Pussy's hidden armory. Corrado "Uncle Junior" Soprano (Dominic Chianese) shoots Tony Soprano in the stomach with a Model 36 during a case of mistaken identity in Members Only (6.01). (IMFDB thanks The Golden Closet for providing the documentation on this gun, as well as the image seen below.) In "The Second Coming" (6.19), Tony (James Gandolfini) uses one to pistol-whip and beat up Coco, one of Phil's guys, for intimidating his daughter.
While beating up the husband-wife brothel owners in Big Girls Don't Cry (2.05), Furio Giunta (Federico Castelluccio) takes a Smith & Wesson Model 586 from behind the brothel's counter and fires several shots into the air to scare off patrons before ditching it.
Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini) keeps a classic Smith & Wesson Model 60 with a bobbed hammer and black rubber grips in an ankle holster, which his mistress Gloria Trillo (Annabella Sciorra) finds on his left ankle in "The Telltale Moozadell" (3.09).
Phil Leotardo (Frank Vincent) holds a snubnose Smith & Wesson Model 686 on Lorraine Calluzzo (Patti D'Arbanville) in Where's Johnny (5.03), firing it at her chest through a phone book (but only getting to the 'R' section). Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini) holds one on Christopher in Irregular Around the Margins (5.05) when Christopher holds his own gun on him and accuses him of sleeping with his girlfriend.
Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini) gives his wife Carmela (Edie Falco) a Micro Uzi to hide when he hears about the indictments in The Legend of Tennessee Moltisanti (1.08). He later stashes it under some clothes in a box in the closet of his mother's retirement home apartment. A Micro Uzi is also seen in Pussy's hidden gun cabinet.
In Pilot (1.01), Carmela (Edie Falco) confronts a presumed burglar outside her house at night with an AK-47. Several AKs and variants are discovered by FBI agents under Pussy's pool table during the bar raid in Nobody Knows Anything (1.11).
Bobby Bacala (Steven R. Schirripa) gives Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini) an Armalite AR-10 for his 47th birthday in Soprano Home Movies (6.13). Bobby describes the weapon as "800 rounds per... Panther-fluted barrel." It appears to be a DPMS rifle not an Armalite which might give some meaning to the panther line. Tony keeps this weapon when he goes into hiding in The Blue Comet (6.20) and Made in America (6.21). Although Bobby specifically refers to the weapon as an AR-10, he is certainly not a qualified weapons expert.
Closeups of the gun in episode "Soprano Home Movies(6.13)" show that the gun used in show was actually an AR15 with a magazine modified to look like the AR10.
Oddly, in both episodes "The Blue Comet (6.20)" and "Made in America (6.21)", it's very clear that it is indeed an AR-10. A sure sign of this is the magwell is enlarged and widened. Also, Tony has removed the Aimpoint Optic and Crimson Trace vertical grip.
In A Hit is a Hit (1.10), Christopher's rapper friend Massive Genius (Bokeem Woodbine) has a nickel-plated Norinco Type 56-1 with ivory furniture (including a Romanian AIM-style vertical grip). This weapon was originally made for the movie Belly, and it was also seen in Lord of War.
A Springfield Model 1842 musket hangs from the bar where Meadow Soprano (Jamie-Lynn Sigler) gets drunk with the girls she meets at Colby College in Maine in "College" (1.05).
In "House Arrest" (2.11), Paulie (Tony Sirico) finds an M1903 Springfield among a collection of World War II swag and plays around, racking the bolt on it.
Artie Bucco (John Ventimiglia) holds a sporterized Mauser 98 up to Tony after he finds out Tony burnt down his restaurant in the first season episode I Dream of Jeannie Cusamano (1.13) before breaking it apart against his station wagon out of shame and anger. Bobby Bacala (Steven R. Schirripa) carries a similar rifle when helping Tony look for Paulie and Christopher in Pine Barrens (3.11).
Tony presents Carmela's father Hugh DeAngelis (Tom Aldredge) with a 12-Gauge Beretta DT-10 O/U shotgun with a 28 inch barrel for his 75th birthday in Marco Polo (5.08).
An FBI agent who bursts into Jimmy and Pussy's bar in Nobody Knows Anything (1.11) has a Remington 870 with black synthetic furniture and a dedicated fore end weaponlight.
In The Legend Of Tennessee Moltisanti (1.08), Tony (James Gandolfini) is seen taking a Remington 870 Police Magnum equipped with a top-folding stock from a cash/gun stash in a ceiling air duct opening in his house and putting it in a duffel bag as part of his 'spring cleaning' in anticipation of a police raid. He later stashes it under some clothes in a box in the closet of his mother's retirement home apartment.
Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini) keeps a hammerless lupara shotgun in the console of his Cadillac Escalade, most notably seen in Walk Like a Man (6.17).
Benny Fazio (Max Casella) spots a Mk 2 hand grenade inside a secret compartment in the Soprano home where Tony and Carmela keep an Type 84S and a M1911A1.
Bobby Bacala (Steven R. Schirripa) uses a Beretta non-gun in Soprano Home Movies (6.13) to carry out a hit for Tony's French-Canadian friends. In the same episode, a flashback to Johnny Sack's arrest in 2004 shows Tony (James Gandolfini) throwing a pistol into the snow, which a neighbor kid retrieves later that night. Strangely, the pistol resembles a Glock-type weapon when it is thrown by Tony, but is a Beretta non-gun when it is recovered.
Ally Boy Barese uses a Colt .45 non-gun in Amour Fou (3.12) to execute Dino Zerilli after the card game robbery attempt. In the same episode, Patsy Parisi (Dan Grimaldi) holds a 1911 non-gun to Gloria Trillo (Annabella Sciorra) when she refuses to stay away from Tony. Tony Blundetto (Steve Buscemi) uses one when shooting Phil during The Test Dream and Phil's brother Billy in Long Term Parking (5.12).
Christopher Moltisanti (Michael Imperioli) pulls out a non-gun when Jackie Jr.'s card game heist goes awry, using it to kill Carlo Renzi inside and execute Dino Zerilli outside (with Ally Boy Barese).
