Paris Police 1900 is a 2021 French historical crime TV series. The plot is set in Paris in 1899-1900. After the death of President Felix Faure in the arms of his mistress, the Third Republic is on the verge of crisis. Louis Lépine, a retired Prefect of Police, is recalled to service and begins the modernisation of the Paris police. Meanwhile, an ambitious detective Antoine Jouin investigates the murder of an unknown young woman. The investigation uncovers the planned coup against the Republic. Many real characters are involved in the storyline, such as Prefect Lépine, Jeanne Chauvin who was the second woman in France to obtain a law degree, Faure's mistress Meg Steinheil, ultra right activist Jules Guérin, and Alphonse Bertillon, the famous biometrics researcher who applied the technique of anthropometry to law enforcement.
The following weapons were used in the miniseries Paris Police 1900:
Alphonse Chagnolle (Renaud Rutten) carries a St. Etienne Mle 1892 revolver when he is disarmed by Inspector Antoine Jouin (Jérémie Laheurte). An Mle 1892 revolver is a service sidearm of Colonel Gabriel Sabran de Ponteves (Christophe Montenez). Mle 1892 revolvers are also seen among the guns, distributed among the members of the Ligue Antisemitique.
St. Etienne Mle 1892 Snub Nose
What appears to be a snub nose version of St. Etienne Mle 1892 revolver with nickel finish is used by hitman Gustave Pertaud (Noam Morgensztern). The barrel of the revolver is cut down for about a half of its original length; the grip also seems to be shortened.
Chamelot-Delvigne Model 1873
In the scene in the Count Sabran's house, Police Inspector Guichard (Renaud Hezeques) holds a revolver that is supposed to be a Chamelot-Delvigne Model 1873 or maybe its close relative, Swiss Ordonnanzrevolver 1872 that is very similar in design but is slightly larger and with difference in details.
Smith & Wesson "Wells Fargo" Schofield
Jules Guérin (Hubert Delattre), the leader of the Ligue Antisemitique, holds a Smith & Wesson "Wells Fargo" Schofield revolver that he uses in an attempt to threaten Prefect of Police Louis Lépine.
Bulldog Revolver
Maman Guérin (Anne Benoît) hands over a Bulldog revolver to her younger son Louis (Anthony Paliotti) who has a mission to kill Prefect Lépine. Judging by the unfluted cylinder and the shape of the grip, this particular gun is supposed to be a British Bulldog No. 2.
Velo-Dog Revolver
Madame Lépine (Valérie Dashwood) covertly takes a Velo-Dog Revolver from Bertillon's laboratory and uses it to shoot at Commissaire Puybaraud.
Enfield No. 2 Mk. I*
What appears to be an anachronistic Enfield No. 2 Mk. I* revolver with bobbed hammer is one of the revolvers, distributed to the members of the Ligue Antisemitique.
Webley RIC
One more of the revolvers, distributed to the members of the Ligue Antisemitique, is supposed to be a Webley RIC, possibly a No.1 New Model.
Nagant M1895
One more of the revolvers, distributed to the members of the Ligue Antisemitique, is a Nagant model, most likely a Nagant M1895, possibly the original Belgian model.
Unidentified revolvers
Pistols
Mauser C96
One of the members of the Ligue Antisemitique carries a Mauser C96 pistol. The exact model of the C96 is difficult to determine, but the shape of the base of the barrel allows to guess that this is a Cone Hammer, just right for the time of action.
Percussion Pocket Pistol
Jeannen Chauvin (Eugénie Derouand), one of the first female lawyers in France, carries a Percussion Pocket Pistol in several scenes.
Jules Guérin's Gun Collection
A number of handguns can be seen in Jules Guérin's office. They are seen very unclear and mostly can be identified only marginally.
In another scene the guns in Guérin's office look somewhat different, probably due to a continuity error. The two revolvers on top (1 and 2) now look more like long cap and ball Colt-style guns, and two percussion cap pistols at the bottom (4 and 5) are of the same length, unlike what was seen earlier. The long gun to the left (6) that now is seen slightly better resembles a kind of Blunderbuss.
Rifles
Winchester Model 1892 Carbine
Several members of the Ligue Antisemitique are armed with Winchester Model 1892 carbines. A Winchester 1892 is also seen in the Bertillon's laboratory.
Lebel Mle 1886
French soldiers are armed with Lebel Mle 1886 rifles. Most likely the screen guns are Mle 1886 M93.
Shotguns
Double Barreled Shotgun
Louis Lépine (Marc Barbé) and several other men carry Double Barreled Shotguns during several hunts. Both shotguns with exposed hammers and hammerless ones are seen. Shotguns are also used by Count Sabran's men, guarding his estate.
Sawed-off Double Barreled Shotgun
Police Inspector Joseph Fiersi (Thibaut Evrard) holds a hammerless Sawed-Off Double Barrel Shotgun in the scene in the Count Sabran's house.
