Used by Lewis Collins and Martin Shaw as their standard weapon for the first two seasons of the show. This particular version of the Hi-Power was manufactured during WWII in Canada.
Used by a German terrorist in "Close Quarters". Doyle(Martin Shaw) is frequently seen using this pistol in place of the Browning Hi-Power. A suppressed version of the P-38 can be seen in some episodes. The assassin Ramos uses one in "Long Shot", and members of the hit team in "Blind Run" are armed with them. Barry Martin has one taped to the back of a painting in his flat in the episode "Rogue".
Enfield revolvers are among the weapons stolen from a military base in the episode "Old Dog with New Tricks". The character of Billy uses one to take a nurse hostage. Later in the episode one of Turkel's men can be seen using an Enfield during the police station takeover. The revolvers are described by Bodie as being "Webley .44's", but a closer look reveals them to be .38 S&W Enfields. This can be determined by looking at the hammer, which has had the cocking spur removed, a feature only found on the Enfield.
Used by the character of "Tinkerbell" in the episode "Blind Run". Can also be seen used by a "terrorist" in the hostage rescue training at the beginning of "Wild Justice". A Python is used in an attempt to kill Cowley in "The Purging of CI5". The character of Phipps is armed with a Python at the end of "Man Without a Past". A Python is used by the character Macklin to demonstrate his shooting skills in "Mixed Doubles". A CI5 agent can be seen using a Python at the end of "Discovered in a Graveyard".
The Model 29 .44 Magnum is featured in the episode "Mixed Doubles". Bodie & Doyle each carry a Model 29 while on a special bodyguard assigment. Ironically, the assassins opposing them, Coney & Joe, are also armed with Model 29s.
The Walther PPK is seen in several episodes. Kodai carries one throughout "Stopover", Esther takes down a knife-wielding thug with a PPK in "Takeaway", and Michael uses one at the end of "Dead Reckoning".
The PPK is featured prominently in "Spy Probe". In this episode, the criminals Ferris and Twig each carry one, the latter using a suppressed version to perform an assassination. When Bodie goes undercover as a hitman he is given a PPK to use on his intended target; the target, Elizibeth Walsh, correctly IDs it as a Walther PPK.
The P210 appears in the show on a regular basis, usually in the hands of the bad guys. The mercenary leader Krivas uses this pistol briefly in "Where the Jungle Ends". The terrorist group in "Fugitive", and kidnappers in "Acorn Syndrome" use P210s. It also
appears in the episode "Blind Run".
The M1934 Beretta is used briefly by the German terrorist Inga in "Close Quarters". In "A Stirring of Dust", the M1934 is wielded by Italian hitman Callinari, and in the same episode, by retired spy Sorenson. A suppressed version of this pistol is used by the assassin Rahad in the episode "The Untouchables". A suppressed M1934 can also be seen in "Discovered in a Graveyard", used by Mayli. Barry Martin has one taped to the underside of a table in his flat in "Rogue".
Used by a hitman in "Everest was also Conquered". This particular C-96 is equipped with a skeleton stock, telescopic sight, and has what appears to be a 15-inch barrel.
An AR-10 with a Thompson Gun drum magazine and primitive laser sight is seen in the episode Hunter Hunted as an "A180 .22 calibre assault rifle" also making this a famous episode. It is supposed to be a black project assault rifle that gets stolen and used on the previous user. This rifle caused some attention to fans of this show that a .22 round is innacurate for long ranges and the fact it is really a 7.62x51mm AR-10. Not to forget this is the world's first tv show appearence to feature a laser-lock sight in the movie industry. Can be seen used here!
A specially modified M1 Carbine used as a sniper weapon is seen several times throughout the series. It can be broken down into 3 pieces--barrel, receiver/forestock, buttstock--is equipped with a scope, and sometimes a suppressor. The character of Nesbitt uses this special carbine in "Private Madness, Public Danger". It also appears in "Runner". The episodes "Blood Sports" & "Hijack" show the carbine with the suppressor attached, in both cases being used by hitmen in assassination attempts. These two episodes also show the carbine fully broken down into its separate parts and then being assembled.
SAS troopers are seen carrying MGC M16 replica in the episode "Long Shot". Col. Lawson and Len are equipped with M16A1s during the attack on the chemical research facility in "Lawson's Last Stand".

The 'foreward assist' on the early models like the one imaged here are bolt inserts to keep the receiver together. Sometimes movie prop masters cut off the three prong flash hider and weld on birdcage flash hiders to update the look.Error creating thumbnail: File missingCol.

SIG 510
A hitman uses the SIG 510 (Stg 57) battle rifle to kill witnesses in the episode "Heroes". The rifle is used again at the conclusion of the same episode, when the hitman uses it in an attempt to kill another witness.
CI5 Agent Murphy is seen with an AR-18 in "Foxhole on the Roof". Bodie arms himself with an AR-18 when confronting the Special Branch agents at the end of "Operation Susie".
Bodie equips himself with an AR-18S, the carbine variant of the AR-18, in the episode "Foxhole on the Roof". One can also be seen in the hands of a CI5 agent in "No Stone".
Members of an anti-terrorist unit can be seen carrying Steyr AUGs at the end of "No Stone". A variety of publicity photos exist showing Bodie & Doyle holding AUGs, but the fact is that they never once use these weapons during an actual episode of the series.
The folding stock variant of the VZ 58 is used by a terrorist during an assassination attempt at the end of the episode "A Hiding To Nothing".

The weapon is seen only briefly, and unfortunately this is the best shot available.
During a prisoner exchange at the beginning of the episode "Dead Reckoning", Bulgarian agents are seen carrying German STG44 assault rifles. When this programme aired in the late 1970s, probably none of the AK series of weapons were available in the West for use in TV shows, so most likely the STG44s was being used as a "stand-ins" because of their general resemblance to the AK (STG44's were used by the East German forces and Yugoslav paratroops after WW2).
The FN FAL is used in two episodes of the series, and both times is shown firing on full automatic. The character of Tommy (John Castle) is armed with a FAL at the end of "Heroes", at one point using it to fire a rifle grenade. Bodie equips himself with the FAL in "Fall Girl".
The British variant of the FN FAL is probably most common rifle used in the show. It can be seen in the hands of British soldiers in "Old Dogs With New Tricks", "Stakeout", & "First Night". Turkel's men use stolen L1A1s when they takeover the police station in "Old Dogs With New Tricks". CI5 agents are seen equipped with L1A1s in "Blackout". Many times the L1A1 is seen with a scope mounted. Cowley uses one in "Need to Know", CI5 snipers use them in "Fugitive" & "Foxhole on the Roof", as well as the character of Mickey Hamilton in the "Madness of Mickey Hamilton", also most of the L1A1 rifles shown in most episodes have the FAL handguard with 3 vents on each side of the Handguard instead of the L1A1 version with 2 vents on each side.
These prototype rifles(the forerunners of the SA80) are used by Bodie and Doyle during the hostage rescue scene at the beginning of the episode "Wild Justice". According to "The Professionals" magazine, Vol. 2, No.2, these are actual experimental rifles, which at the time were undergoing testing by the military, and were loaned to the production for use in this episode.
Lee Enfield No. 4s appear several times in the series being used as sniper rifles, namely the No.4T sniper rifle. They can be seen in the hands of CI5 agents in the episodes "Heroes" and "Stopover". The police are seen using them in the episode "Madness of Mickey Hamilton".
A bolt action sniper rifle, make and model unknown, is used by Doyle during the hostage situation in "Old Dog with New Tricks". The same rifle is also used by the character of Kodai in "Stopover", and by an assassin in "Backtrack".
This smg appears in various episodes of the series. All the members of the mercenary group in "Where the Jungle Ends" use this weapon. In the same episode, a crate filled with Sterlings is seen inside the house of a gunrunner that Bodie & Doyle are questioning. A Greek terrorist uses a Sterling in "Killer with a Long Arm". Bodie uses a Sterling to take down a assassin on the golf course in "Blood Sports".
The Uzi is the most common SMG used in the show. Bodie & Doyle can be seen with Uzi's during the hostage rescue sequence at the end of "First Night". CI5 agents are equipped with Uzi's at the beginning of "Dead Reckoning". Bodie & two other CI5 agents use Uzi's at the conclusion of "A Hiding To Nothing". Bodie again has an Uzi during the finale of "Takeaway". Criminals and terrorists in "The Professionals" are also seen with Uzis. At the end of the episode "Heroes", hitmen armed with Uzis attempt to kill a witness. Uzis are seen in the hands of terrorists in the episodes "Blackout" and "No Stone".
Kidnappers in the episode "First Night" use MAC-10 submachine guns. A MAC-10 with suppressor is used by a member of the hit squad in the episode "Blind Run."
Kodai's men use MAT-49s when they attack the safehouse in the episode "Stopover". The terrorists in "Blackout" are also seen using them at the end of the episode.
The character of Tommy(John Castle) uses a sawed-off Ithaca 37 with pistol grip in the episode "Heroes". It also features a custom wire stock, closely resembling the type used on the MP40 SMG, which folds onto the top of the gun.
This British 37mm riot gun is used by the character of Roddy Barker in "Foxhole on the Roof." In this episode the weapon is portrayed as an HE grenade launcher, while in actuality it can only be used to fire tear gas shells.
British No. 36 "Mills Bomb" grenades are among the weapons stolen from an military base in "Old Dogs with New Tricks". The character of Billy uses one in order to take a nurse hostage.
The Mk 2 "pineapple" fragmentation grenade can be seen in the episode "Lawson's Last Stand". Col. Lawson uses a Mk 2 to destroy a guardhouse at a chemical research facility, and later attaches one to a cannister of nerve gas.
Used by a terrorist during the assassination attempt at the end of the episode "A Hiding To Nothing". Many promotional photos for "The Professionals" show Bodie(Lewis Collins) holding the RPG-2, however, he never actually uses the weapon during this episode.
