The Hound of the Baskervilles is a British 2002 made for TV detective movie, based on the famous novel by Arthur Conan Doyle. It is directed by David Attwood and stars Richard Roxburgh as Sherlock Holmes and Ian Hart as Dr. Watson.
The following weapons were used in the film The Hound of the Baskervilles:
Revolvers
Webley .455 Mk III
Dr. Watson (Ian Hart) carries a compact Webley revolver of .455 series. Mk III seems to be the best guess though Mk IV or Mk V are also possible.
Note: see additional images on talk page.
Webley Mk III - .455 Webley
The grip is more angular that the "bird head" of early models. Such grip appeared only on Mk III and continued on later models.
Watson, with revolver in hand, runs to help Sir Henry who is attacked by escaped convict Selden.
Watson and Sir Henry pursue Selden.
Watson goes on marshes in search of a mysterious man.
A close view of the revolver allows to see the cylinder to frame lock that also matches Mk III-Mk V models.
Watson holds his revolver when he and Holmes confronts the hound.
Holmes and Watson fire at the hound.
Webley RIC
Sherlock Holmes (Richard Roxburgh) carries a nickel plated Webley RIC (supposedly Second Pattern). A blued RIC is Inspector Lestrade's (Danny Webb) handgun. Jack Stapleton (Richard E. Grant) manages to get Lestrade's revolver and uses in the final shootout on the marshes.
Note: see additional images on talk page.
