The following weapons appear in Season 1 of the television series The Walking Dead:
Revolvers
Colt Python
Deputy Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) carries a six-inch barreled Colt Python .357 Magnum revolver as his duty sidearm in the series. He is seen using the revolver prominently in the series premiere "Days Gone Bye" (S1E01). Of note is that when Grimes fires the gun in a very tight, enclosed space (in this case, inside a tank), it actually severely disorients him and hurts his hearing, unlike most movies or shows that have people firing guns indoors or in other enclosed spaces without being fazed. Grimes notably uses the revolver twice in Season 1, wielding it in "Wildfire" (S1E05) and once again fires it as the group flee the CDC in Season 1's finale "TS-19" (S1E06).
Colt Trooper
In S01E05/(Wildfire) just before the group leaves for the CDC Headquarters, Rick (Andrew Lincoln) gives Morales (Juan Gabriel Pareja) what appears to be a Colt Trooper in .357 Magnum from the bag of guns when Morales and his family decide to leave the group to find their family in Birmingham. You can also hear Shane say ".357?" as well when Rick is getting it out of the bag.
Smith & Wesson Model 10
A snub nose Smith & Wesson Model 10 or two can be seen in the hands of the Vatos in S01E04/(Vatos) during the standoff in Atlanta, specifically Felipe (Noel Gugliemi). In S01E05/(Wildfire), Rick (Andrew Lincoln) offers a Model 10 from the bag of guns to Jim who has been bitten to end himself, he declines. Darryl uses a Model 10 with 4 or 3 inch barrel during season 2's finale after Carl takes his Browning BDA.
Smith & Wesson Model 15
What appears to be a Smith & Wesson Model 15 is seen in the hands of one of Guillermo's right hand men, Jorge (James Gonzaba) in Episode 4 during the standoff.
Taurus Model 85
A stainless Taurus Model 85 is used by Morgan Jones (Lennie James) in "Days Gone Bye" (S1E01). It has a 5-shot cylinder but is not of the S&W J-frame series. The unique curved ejector shroud on a Taurus Model 85 is barely noticeable in the photos below. Most likely if it is not a Taurus Model 85, it could possibly be a Ruger SP101. More in the Discussion page.
Pistols
Glock 17
A Glock 17 was one of the sidearms of the police in the first episode. One of the deputies was told by Grimes to have a round chambered and also (incorrectly) to make sure the safety was off. A Glock 17 is also taken by Daryl Dixon (Norman Reedus) from Rick's gun bag to confront the Vatos in in "Vatos" (S1E04). Shane Walsh (Jon Bernthal) carries one as well as his duty sidearm, and is seen carrying it at the end of "Vatos" (S1E04). In "TS-19" (S1E06), Shane is seen firing the pistol when they are fleeing the CDC headquarters when he takes a shot on a zombie as they make a break for the vehicles. It can also be seen in Shane's hands in the opening flashback of the same episode in the hospital.
SIG-Sauer P228
At the beginning of the series premiere "Days Gone Bye" (S1E01), one of the suspects from the police chase uses what appears to be a two-tone SIG-Sauer P228.
SIG-Sauer P226
In "Vatos" (S1E04), Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) handles a black SIG-Sauer P226 as he, Daryl, and T-Dog load up from the bag of guns as they prepare to confront the Vatos. It appears he may even have it tucked in the back of his belt during the confrontation later at the small of his back in addition to the Colt Python in his holster.
M1911A1
At the beginning of the series premiere "Days Gone Bye" (S1E01), one of the suspects from the police chase uses a M1911A1 to wound Rick before being killed himself by Shane. Merle is seen with a nickel M1911A1 in the Comic-con trailer.
Browning Hi-Power
Merle Dixon (Michael Rooker) carries a chrome Browning Hi-Power pistol and uses it to threaten fellow group members in "Guts" (S1E02). The weapon is taken forcefully, then used by Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) as he and Glenn make their way to the truck.
Beretta 92FS
Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) takes a Beretta 92FS (standing in for a U.S. Military-issue M9) from a dead soldier inside a tank in the end of the series premiere "Days Gone Bye" (S1E01). In "Guts" (S1E02), identifying it as a Beretta with 15 rounds. He fires it until dry then stores it in Glenn's Backpack. In the opening flashback of S01E06, Shane witnesses soldiers executing infected people with the Beretta in the hospital Rick is laying comatose in during the initial outbreak. One of the soldiers in the hospital flashback in S01E06/(TS-19) uses a Non Gun Beretta 92FS when he's finishing off the bodies with a shot to the head. While we don't get a good look, Andrea is practicing loading a Beretta magazine in the RV at night in S02E03/ (Save The Last One) and Daryl (Norman Reedus) awakes to ask for his "clip" back so he can go walk the road to look for Sophia and we very briefly get a glimpse of the Beretta as inserts the magazine before he tucks the pistol in his waistband. In S02E06/(Secrets) Andrea (Laurie Holden) uses the Beretta to practice with in a target practice lesson by Shane after he recommends it for its larger frame, better balance, and twice the capacity. She excels with it and uses it to gun down Walkers in the housing development they search. Andrea once again uses the Beretta in S02E07/ Pretty Much Dead Already on the walkers escaping Hershel's barn. In the Comic-Con trailer Carl can be briefly seen firing a 92FS with a suppressor.
Smith & Wesson 3913 "Ladysmith"
Andrea (Laurie Holden) carries a Smith & Wesson 3913 "Ladysmith" in S01E02/(Guts). She later hands the pistol to Glenn (Steven Yeun) for his own protection when he and Rick make their way to the escape van, he does not fire it in the escape though. Andrea uses it in S01E05/(Wildfire) to put her sister Amy down after she comes back as a walker. Shane Walsh briefly handles the Ladysmith in episode S02E01/(What Lies Ahead), as he intends to teach Andrea how to take it apart and clean it but Dale keeps the gun from her fearing a suicide attempt until a couple episodes later in S02E03/(Save the Last One) in which he returns it. Shane finally gets around to teaching Andrea how to break her gun down in the following episode S02E04/Cherokee Rose). Andrea fires it well during a target practice session in S02E06/ Secrets before switching to a Beretta by the recommendation of Shane. T-Dog (IronE Singleton) can be seen holding Andrea's Smith & Wesson while the group talk on the road in S02E13/ Beside the Dying Fire.
Browning BDA
A Browning BDA is seen during the standoff in S01E04/Vatos, by Daryl Dixon (Norman Reedus). The handgun in the front of his waistband is definitely not the Glock he loaded earlier on which is in the back of his waistband at the small of his back. Unlike the Glock, this pistol also has an external hammer. It seems to also have a different rear sight than the SIG featured in the earlier loading scene. This same pistol is taken by Carl Grimes (Chandler Riggs) from the side saddle bag on Daryl's motorcycle in S02E12/ Judge, Jury, Executioner. In the following episode, Carl admits what he did and is encouraged by both Rick and Shane to continue carrying it for self defense instead of the Charter Arms revolver he trained with. Carl uses this pistol to save his father from a walker in Better Angels.
Shotguns
Mossberg 590
The Mossberg 590 is first seen being used by Rick's partner, Shane Walsh (Jon Bernthal) during the shootout with the suspects in the overturned vehicle in the pilot episode just before Rick is wounded in the line of duty. The shotgun is fitted with an extended magazine tube, heat-shield, collapsible KNOXX SpecOps NRS stock with pistol grip. It appears again later in Shane's possession at the survivor camp and can notably be seen being used by Shane on the attacking Walkers at the camp in episode 4 "Vatos" of season 1. He also uses (aims) it in episode 5 "Wildfire", when he and Rick Grimes patrol the woods. Shane also loses his cool when trapped in the CDC Headquarters in the season 1 finale "TS-19" and uses it to blow up some computer monitors but later uses it in an attempt to bust the glass to escape the CDC which fails. Once outside, Shane uses the Mossberg to blast down walkers as the group runs to the vehicles. Shane continues to carry the Mossberg in Season 2 and uses it to blast some glass doors to gain entry to a high school in "Bloodletting" and uses it to neutralize several Walkers as he and Otis attempt escape in "Save the Last One". Glenn (Steven Yeun) uses the Mossberg 590 in S02E13/ Beside the Dying Fire in defense of the farm when it is jeprodized. He fires it mostly from a vehicle.
Mossberg 500
Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) can first be seen using a 12 Gauge Mossberg 500 in episode 4 "Vatos" of Season 1. It was packed in his bag of guns from the police station he dropped in the pilot that he finally goes back for in episode 4. He uses this shotgun from the bag in the standoff with the Vatos and ends up giving it to their leader, Guillermo (Neil Brown Jr.) after the Vatos turn out to be doing a good thing. Glenn (Steven Yeun) appears to be carrying this Mossberg when he first gets to the Greene family farm in "Save the Last One" of season 2 (it's believed that there's a deleted scene from the season premiere involving returning to an overrun Vatos stronghold where its possible they retrieved it. In S02E07/ Pretty Much Dead Already Shane passes the Mossberg out to Glenn from the gun bag who uses it to kill multiple walkers escaping Hershel's barn. Glenn uses the Mossberg to shoot at both human and zombie enemies in S02E09/ Triggerfinger.
Glenn (Steven Yeun) uses the 'Persuader' version of the Mossberg 500, after taking it from Rick's gunbag in episode 4. He uses it during the subsequent episodes, most notably during the siege on the camp by the walkers. In episode 5 he still has it as the group makes their way to the CDC Headquarters.
A Mossberg 500 Persuader model is used in the webisodes. Curiously it features a ghost ring rear sight and a bead front sight. It is referred to as holding eight, including one in the chamber, but in real life it could only hold six.
Mossberg 590 Compact Cruiser
One of the suspects that emerge from the wrecked car following a police chase at the beginning of the pilot episode uses a Mossberg 590 Compact Cruiser with door-breaching muzzle-brake.
Remington 870 Wingmaster
A Remington 870 Wingmaster shotgun is briefly seen in episode 1 in the house Rick stops at, Rick also has one stashed in his bag of guns he got from the police station locker, the shotgun sports a walnut stock, a barrel without the raised barrel vent rib and possibly a shorter 20" Barrel, it ends up with Daryl Dixon (Norman Reedus) during the "switch" with the Vatos in S01E04. Daryl continues to carry it along with his crossbow in S01E05 when the group arrive to the CDC and still has it in the opening of S01E06. The 870 is once again seen in S02E05 being taken out of the bag of guns as the group coordinate their grid search of the woods for Sophia, Rick (Andrew Lincoln) can later be seen armed with it as he patrols the forest with Shane. We see Rick holding it again in S02E06/ Secrets while some of the group target practice. Shane passes the 870 Wingmaster out to Daryl who once again fires it for the first time since S01E04, this time he uses it on Walkers during the siege on the barn in S02E07/ Pretty Much Dead Already. In S02E13/ Beside the Dying Fire, Hershel Greene (Scott Wilson) can be seen firing this shotgun many times at the advancing walkers in defense of his farm.
Remington 870
In "Vatos" (S1E04), T-Dog (IronE Singleton) takes Remington 870 with a synthetic stock from Rick's bag of guns and uses it during the standoff as well as during the walker's siege on the survivor camp. He appears to be carrying it still as the group make their way to the CDC in "Wildfire" (S1E05).
Harrington & Richardson Pardner Pump Compact
For the remainder of "Vatos" (S1E04), Rick (Andrew Lincoln) appears to be using a Harrington & Richardson Pardner Pump Compact with a wood stock to replace the Mossberg he gave to Guillermo. He fires it at walkers in the camp during the attack and then carries it throughout "Wildfire" (S1E05) and upon arriving at the CDC in "TS-19" (S1E06) upon arriving at the CDC.
Rifles
Winchester Model 70
In "Guts" (S1E02), Merle Dixon (Michael Rooker) is seen firing a Winchester Model 70 bolt-action rifle atop a building at walkers. He also uses the rifle to rifle-butt T-Dog in a disagreement before Rick intervenes.
Ruger M77 Hawkeye
Dale (Jeffrey DeMunn) carries a what appears to be a Ruger M77 Hawkeye with a scope, he is seen with it in every episode usually slung over his back as he keeps watch over camp. Dale fires it on the walkers in S01E04/Vatos during the attack and carries it to the CDC. In S01E06/TS-19 it looks as if T-Dog (IronE Singleton) is carrying the rifle as the group flees the CDC and even fires it at least once. In the season 2 premiere episode "What Lies Ahead" Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) stands guard with Dale's rifle while the rest of the group search for supplies around the car pile up on the highway. He observes Walkers through the scope and hides under a truck with the rifle before leaving it when he's forced to chase Sophia into the woods. Dale is later seen with it keeping watch on top of the RV while the group searches the woods. In S02E05/Chupacabra, Andrea (Laurie Holden) takes watch on the RV with Dale's rifle but ends up shooting another character on accident after mistaking him for a walker.
Remington 700 BDL
In episode 1, a scoped Remington 700 BDL is given to Morgan Jones (Lennie James) by Rick Grimes from the police station arsenal. Morgan uses it to brush up on his marksmanship skills from the second story window of his hideout. To note when he is setting up to kill his wife (yet he is unable to bring himself to do so.) He takes an I.D. Photo and sets it up like a hide sight giving us a possibility of being a sniper in the past. Otis (Pruitt Taylor Vince) also uses a Remington 700 BDL during the second season. He takes the rifle along with him as he and Shane loot a FEMA shelter at a nearby high school for medical supplies in Season 2's second episode, "Bloodletting". Otis fires the rifle at the zombies as he and Shane try to escape in the following episode "Save the Last One".
Browning Automatic Rifle Safari
A scoped Browning Automatic Rifle Safari is briefly seen being used by T-Dog (IronE Singleton) during the standoff in episode 4 with the gangsters in Atlanta.
Assault Rifles
M4A1
M4A1 assault rifles can be seen abandoned with several dead soldiers and other military personnel around the CDC Headquarters in episode 5. It is seen in the opening sequence of Episode 6 when Shane witnesses soldiers executing infected people inside the hospital. An M4A1 is also carried by Dr. Edwin Jenner (Noah Emmerich) later in the same episode when he first confronts the group he allowed inside. Also seen briefly in the hands of soldiers in the crashing helicopter during the Comic-Con trailer. Hershel is seen using an M4A1 with an Aimpoint sight from a guard tower. Another is seen being laid on a table before the group begins to clear out the prison.
Machine Guns
Browning M2HB
In "Days Gone Bye" (S1E01), a mockup of a Browning M2HB is seen mounted atop a British Chieftain tank (presumably standing in for an M1 Abrams) in which Grimes takes refuge. M2HBs are also seen on Bell UH-1 Iroquois helicopters and on a IAV Stryker.
DShK
In "TS-19" (S1E06), a DShK heavy machine gun is seen in a machine gun next outside the CDC in Atlanta. Likely a mocked-up Browning M2.
Other Weapons
M67 Hand Grenade (M69 Training version)
In "Guts" (S1E02), Rick (Andrew Lincoln) takes an M69 Hand Grenade (The inert training version of the live M67 grenade) from a tank and stores it in his pocket. It can be noted as an M69 not only by the inherent likelihood of it being so but also because it is seen in some shots with a bit of the blue paint showing through the over painted OD green color.
Horton Scout Crossbow
A Horton Scout HD 125 Crossbow is used by Daryl Dixon (Norman Reedus) as his weapon of choice.
Rick's Bag o' Guns
Rick (Andrew Lincoln) ransacked his police station armory in episode one and throughout the first season is seen with a bag of guns from what he cleared out there which throughout the season ends up in the hands and used by fellow survivors in the group or himself, or given away. Inside the bag up to episode 4 is six shotguns, two high-powered rifles, a dozen handguns, and seven hundred rounds of ammunition, assorted. So far the current count from the bag is Harrington & Richardson Pardner Pump Compact, Mossberg 500, Mossberg 500 Persuader, two Remington 870s, Browning Automatic Rifle Safari, Remington 700, Glock 17 (possibly more than one), SIG-Sauer P226, Smith & Wesson Model 10 snub-nose, and a Colt Trooper.
Merle's Bayonet Arm
Merle at some point attached some sort of bayonet to his bloody stump.
