In the alleyway brawl, an attacker (uncredited) pulls a Webley Mk V on Sherlock Holmes (Robert Downey Jr.), but Holmes is able to take it away. Madam Simza Heron (Noomi Rapace) hands Holmes one before he and Watson (Jude Law) infiltrate the Meinhard factory.
Holmes fires upon the assassins with what appears to be a Chamelot-Delvigne Model 1874 revolver before handing it off to Watson. Officer's Model 1874 is blued and has fluted cylinder contrary to smooth cylinder of Model 1873.
Sherlock Holmes (Robert Downey, Jr.) carries a Sharps Model 1A Pepperbox pistol while dressed in drag on the train to Brighton, and Watson (Jude Law) uses it to disable one of Moriarty's henchmen manning the machine gun.
Colonel Sebastian Moran (Paul Anderson) shows Holmes with a box full of Mauser M712 Schnellfeuer pistols in the Meinhard factory in which Holmes later acquires one during the shootout in the factory.
Note: The use of this gun in the movie is anachronistic as it's set in 1891 while the original Mauser C96 appeared in the 1895, and the Mauser M712 used in the film wasn't commercially available until 1932. It is implied that the C96 design is a prototype developed by Moriarty's weapons designers for the impending war he desires to start.
Anarchist Claude Ravache (Thierry Neuvic) shoots himself with a Mle 1892 Revolver. Watson later picks it up to confront the other anarchists. Watson still has this revolver, or another copy when he and Holmes infiltrate the Meinhard factory.
N.B.This is another anachronism, when the film is set in 1891, one year before the revolver's availability.
One of Moriarty's train hitmen tries to fire a Winchester Model 1887 shotgun on Holmes and Watson, but sets himself on fire due to Holmes' sabotage. When Moriarty's attacker squeezes the trigger, a scene shows rifled barrel, which is incorrect, since most of the scatterguns are smoothbore.
1888 Commission Rifles(Gewehr 88)s are used by the Meinhard guards and several men. Madam Simza, Holmes, Watson, and Moran use them during the factory escape.
Col. Moran (Paul Anderson) uses a Customized Martini-Henry sniper rifle equipped with sniper scope, supressor, and bipod, which is fitting since he is an veteran of the Anglo-Afghan war. He's also described as the best shot in the army before his dismissal (which Watson erroneously refers to as a dishonorable discharge, which is reserved for enlisted men.)
The train assassins, and later Watson (Jude Law) and several Meinhard guards use custom submachine guns. These guns are built from from Zastava M56 submachine guns by Bapty for the film.
The assassins on the train are equipped with grenades (which are similar to No. 2 Mk II Hale Grenades). Holmes uses one to set a booby trap. It's a another made for movie props.
