WORK IN PROGRESS: CURRENTLY SCREENCAPPING EPISODE 3
Dr. Watson (Martin Freeman) keeps a SIG P226R Stainless in a desk drawer in his apartment. Given Watson's military background, this is likely meant as a stand-in for the SIG-Sauer L106A1, which is the British Army's standard issue sidearm.

Unidentified Small-Caliber Pistol
General Shan (Sarah Lam) uses this yet to be identified small-caliber handgun.
Dr. Watson's stainless steel P226R (likely standing in for the L106A1) makes a return in episode three. It is first seen in the hands of Sherlock Holmes (Benedict Cumberbatch) who, in a fit of boredom, uses it to shoot holes in a smiley face painted on the wall of his living room. Having learned their mistake of remaining unarmed while pursuing dangerous criminals in the last episode, both Watson and Sherlock carry it while investigating cases. In his first appearance, Jim Moriarty (Andrew Scott) mistakenly refers to it as a "British Army L9A1".
