The Hound of London is a 1993 Luxembourger-Canadian made for TV detective film directed by Gil Letourneau and Peter Reynolds-Long and starring Patrick Macnee as Sherlock Holmes (previously Macnee had portrayed Watson in three movies) and John Scott-Paget as Dr. Watson. It has an original plot, not based on Arthur Conan Doyle's works but adapted from a theatrical play written by Craig Bowlsby. Moriarty (Jack Macreath) poses as a theatre director Rex London and stages a double murder at the Strand Theatre.
The following weapons were used in the film The Hound of London:
When aging and bored with idleness Sherlock Holmes (Patrick Macnee) hears suspicious footsteps on the stairs, he draws an Enfield No.2 Mk.1* revolver (not fitting for that time). Holmes is also seen with an Enfield No.2 on the film poster.
A Webley RIC No.1 New Model is one of the guns, used in the double murder. It is hold by one of the killed men, actor John Gadsby (Dale Kelly), in the scene that illustrates Inspector Lestrade's version of events, and by Moriarty (Jack Macreath) in the flashback scene that shows the real course of events.
A Harrington & Richardson Young America Bulldog revolver is the second gun, used in the double murder. Inspector Lestrade's version of events shows the gun used by theatrical agent Norman Striker (Ed Belanger), while Moriarty (Jack Macreath) uses this revolver in the flashback scene that shows the real course of events.
A blank firing version of Single Action Army that is a stage prop in the theatrical play, directed by Moriarty (under the name of Rex London), is intended to be secretly loaded with live ammo for the assassination of the King of Bohemia who present at the premiere of the play. Most likely the screen gun is Italian manufactured; Chiappa SAA 1873 is a good example of such guns.
A Webley Bulldog (possibly not original British but European copy) is used by Moriarty (Jack Macreath), Irene Norton (Carolyn Wilkinson) and Lance Sterling (Craig Bowlsby). When Holmes disarms Sterling in the climactic scene, the Bulldog briefly switches to a previously seen H&R revolver.
