Doctor Who (Classic Series)
Nice, but where's the trigger? This article or section is incomplete. You can help IMFDB by expanding it. |
Pistols
Smith & Wesson Model 12
In The Green Death, Captain Mike Yates (Richard Franklin), after being brainwashed by B.O.S.S., is sent to murder the Doctor (Jon Pertwee) using a Smith & Wesson Model 12 with large grips. The weapon changes hands between a few other characters.
Smith & Wesson Model 40
During the May Day festival in The Dæmons, Bert (Don McKillop) pulls a Smith & Wesson Model 40 on the Doctor (Jon Pertwee).
Luger P08
The Nazi-like Kaled Scientific Elite in Genesis of the Daleks employ Luger P08 handguns, notably Security Commander Nyder (Peter Miles) and General Ravon (Guy Siner). Harry Sullivan (Ian Marter) appropriates Ravon's Luger and uses it for a brief while.
Mannlicher Model 1905
In Genesis of the Daleks, Kaled scientist Ronson (James Garbutt) carries what appears to be a Mannlicher Model 1905 as his personal sidearm when he helps the Doctor (Tom Baker) and Harry Sullivan (Ian Marter) escape from Davros' base.
Webley Mk VI
The Webley Mk VI is another handgun seen used by the Kaled Scientific Elite in Genesis of the Daleks. Security Commander Nyder (Peter Miles) has one as his personal sidearm in the final episodes of the serial, but hands it over to the dissenters led by Gharman (Dennis Chinnery).
M1911
Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart (Nicholas Courtney) carries an M1911 as his sidearm in numerous episodes. Thal soldier Bettan (Harriet Philpin) can be seen with an M1911 style handgun in Genesis of the Daleks. Presumably this is also the primary sidearm of the Thal army. She carries it throughout the latter part of the serial.
SIG P210
In The Seeds of Doom, Scorby (John Challis) carries what appears to be a SIG P210 as his primary sidearm. He uses it throughout the serial and it even briefly winds up in the hands of the Doctor (Tom Baker) before being reclaimed by Scorby, although the Doctor never uses it.
Walther PPK
In The Dæmons and Invasion of the Dinosaurs, Captain Mike Yates' (Richard Franklin) sidearm is a Walther PPK. General Finch (John Bennett) also uses a PPK. In The Seeds of Doom, Scorby (John Challis) keeps a Walther PPK as his backup pistol in the antarctic base. He gives it to Arnold Keeler (Mark Jones). Later in the serial, Chase's chauffeur (Alan Chuntz) pulls a Walther on the Doctor and Sarah Jane Smith.
Browning Hi-Power
In The Green Death, Stevens' chauffeur Hinks (Ben Howard) carries a Browning Hi-Power. In The Seeds of Doom, Richard Dunbar (Kenneth Gilbert) carries what appears to be a Hi-Power with him when he infiltrates Chase's mansion and encounters the Krynoid.
Walther P38
In the Jon Pertwee-era serial Inferno, a Walther P38 is the sidearm of the Brigade Leader (Nicholas Courtney) in the alternate universe. It is also picked up and used by Director Stahlman (Olaf Pooley). In The Dæmons, Sergeant Benton (John Levene) carries a P38, sometimes equipped with a silencer. In the Tom Baker serial City of Death the P38 is the primary firearm used by almost every single gun-wielding character. Duggan (Tom Chadbon) holds one on the Doctor, thugs in the employ of Count Scarlioni (Julian Glover) including Scarlioni butler Hermann (Kevin Flood) and ultimately Scarlioni himself, all use P38's.
Smith & Wesson 4th Model
After learning her husband is actually the alien Scaroth, Countess Scarlioni (Catherine Schell) pulls what seems to be a pearl-handled Smith & Wesson 4th Model pistol on him.
Beretta 3032 Tomcat
In the serial Inferno, the Doctor (Jon Pertwee) ends up in an alternate universe where the UK is the Republic of Great Britain. RSF Section Leader Elizabeth Shaw (Caroline John) carries a Beretta 3032 Tomcat as her sidearm. She uses it throughout the serial, in particular to kill the Brigade Leader.
Submachine Guns
Sten Mk I*
The Kaled Scientific Elite and their soldiers in Genesis of the Daleks use black Sten Mk I* submachine guns.
IMI Uzi
In The Seeds of Doom the guards at Harrison Chase's country estate all carry Uzis with shoulder straps and the stocks extended. Scorby (John Challis) also carries one in some scenes. In Silver Nemesis, the Neo-Nazis led by De Flores (Anton Diffring) also carry Uzis (ironic, given the gun's Israeli origins), particularly Karl (Metin Yenal). Their Uzis are fitted with vertical foregrips.
Sterling SMG
UNIT Soldiers are armed with Sterling SMGs in multiple episodes, such as Robot and Invasion of the Dinosaurs. A Sterling is also seen briefly in the hands of a Kaled soldier in Genesis of the Daleks.
Rifles and Shotguns
SKS Rifle
In the alternate universe seen in Inferno, soldiers serving in the Republican Security Force use what appear to be SKS rifles.
L1A1 SLR
The L1A1 SLR is used throughout the classic series, particularly by soldiers in UNIT. Noteworthy serials featuring UNIT soldiers wielding SLR's include Inferno, The Green Death, Invasion of the Dinosaurs, Terror of the Zygons and The Seeds of Doom, among others. In The Dæmons, Bert (Don McKillop) uses one in an attempt to kill the Doctor and The Seeds of Doom also has an SLR used by the scientists at the antarctic research base.
Double Barreled Shotgun
In The Dæmons, Garvin (John Joyce) threatens Sergeant Benton (John Levene) and Ms. Hawthorne with a Double Barreled Shotgun in the church. He later uses it to shoot at Azal, but is incinerated. In The Green Death, the Global Chemicals guards in carry standard shotguns as their main weapons.
Other
Bazooka
In The Dæmons, Sergeant Benton (John Levene) uses a bazooka in an attempt to kill Bok, the Master's living gargoyle minion. Although he succeeds in blowing Bok up, the gargoyle simply reforms himself.
L9A1 Mortar
In Day of the Daleks UNIT soldiers use an L9A1 Mortar to defend Auderly House against the Daleks and the Ogrons.
Fictional Firearms
A variety of fictional firearms have appeared throughout the series, mostly all props.
Astronauts' Laser Guns
In The Sontaran Experiment, the human astronauts stranded on future Earth use laser guns. Most of the men use a scoped laser rifle with a wire stock, whilst team leader Vural (Donald Douglas) uses a pistol. They appear to be stun weapons since the astronauts shoot the Doctor (Tom Baker) with one without any ill effects.
Sontaran Laser Pistol
Field Major Styre (Kevin Lindsay) uses a small laser pistol in The Sontaran Experiment. It kills instantly.
UNIT Laser Gun
During their attack on Chase's mansion in The Seeds of Doom, UNIT soldiers employ an experimental "laser" weapon against the giant Krynoid to no noticeable effect.
