WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS!
The following weapons were used in the film Skyfall:
Handguns
Walther PPK/S
James Bond (Daniel Craig) carries the Walther PPK/S as his sidearm in the film. Field Agent Eve (Naomie Harris) also is seen using a PPK/S during the film's opening chase. Bond had carried the Walther PPK since Dr. No until the first half of Tomorrow Never Dies where he switched his sidearm to the Walther P99. However, since Quantum of Solace, Bond appears to have switched back to the PPK/S, which is the post-1968 American imported version of the PPK. When Q (Ben Whishaw) issues Bond his new pistol, he refers to it as a "Walther PPK/S, nine-millimeter short" and states that the gun is coded to Bond's palm print so that only he could fire it. After losing the palm print-reading model in Macau, Bond carries a standard PPK/S when back in the UK. It is later used by M (Judi Dench) in the finale when Silva's men attack Skyfall Lodge.
Glock 17
Glock 17s are used by numerous characters including James Bond (Daniel Craig), Gareth Mallory (Ralph Fiennes), Eve (Naomie Harris) and various henchmen. A suppressed Glock 17 is seen used by Patrice in Shanghai. They are also the standard pistol carried by SCO19 Firearms Officers in London and armed police officers at a public inquiry attended by M (Judi Dench). Raoul Silva (Javier Bardem) and his crew use Glock 17's while disguised as police officers.
Glock 18
Patrice (Ola Rapace) is seen firing a Glock 18 when engaged in a shootout with Bond and Eve in Turkey. This handgun is loaded with "depleted uranium" rounds (rather strange, as DU is usually only used in aircraft and tank rounds. A 9mm DU round would offer little armor piercing capability on account of its low velocity and mass). He initially uses the pistol with a 100-round Beta-C drum magazine, but later switches to extended 33-round ones during the train chase. This Glock has a completely enclosed slide and not the cutout version of the 18C.
Percussion Cap Ardesa 1871 Dueling Pistols
During a confrontation with Bond on the island, Silva is seen taking out a one of his reproduction Percussion Cap Ardesa 1871 Dueling Pistols and challenges Bond to knock a shot glass off Sévérine's head with it but he misses. Silva also is seen holding the pistol that he kills Sévérine with.
Steyr M9-A1
Raoul Silva (Javier Bardem) carries a Steyr M9-A1 during the climax of the film. A Steyr M9-A1 is also briefly seen being used by Severine's Bodyguard (Roger Yuan) at the Macau casino.
Beretta Model 70
While not clearly seen, Bond mentions during a meeting with Sévérine (Bérénice Marlohe) that only a certain kind of woman wears a backless gown with a Beretta 70 strapped to her thigh.
Assault Rifles & Carbines
Heckler & Koch HK416 D10RS
Raoul Silva's henchmen use Heckler & Koch HK416 assault rifles during the attack on Skyfall Lodge. Two are also used by James Bond (Daniel Craig) after disarming multiple henchmen in the same scene.
Heckler & Koch G36C
SCO19 officers from the Metropolitan Police Service are seen holding Heckler & Koch G36C rifles while patrolling Westminster station.
Olympic Arms K23B Tactical
Eve uses an Olympic Arms K23B Tactical with a FAB defense "GL-Shock" stock and a red dot sight during a train chase sequence in Turkey. The K23B Tactical is basically a K23B with a railed handguard and removable carrying handle.
M4A1 Carbine
MI6 Security Officers stationed at the agency's underground backup headquarters carry M4A1 carbines.
Submachine Guns
Heckler and Koch MP7A1
Two of Silva's henchmen at the abandoned island carry Heckler & Koch MP7A1 submachine guns.
Sniper Rifles
Custom Sniper Rifle
Patrice (Ola Rapace) uses a custom bolt action suppressed sniper rifle when assassinating a target in Shanghai. The bolt action is seen being worked, but during a fight, the rifle appears to be fire semi-automatically.
Double Barreled Express Rifle
Anderson Wheeler 500 NE Double Rifle
During the assault on Skyfall Lodge, Bond uses his deceased father's Anderson Wheeler Double Rifle chambered in .500 Nitro Express. Anderson Wheeler is a London-based maker of luxury rifles and shotguns whose custom made double rifles are also available in calibers from .375 to .600. Bond's depiction of recoil is akin to that of a nail gun, despite the mammoth cartridge.
Shotguns
12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun
Mr. Kincade (Albert Finney), gamekeeper of the Skyfall Estate, carries a 12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun. In preparation for impending the attack on Skyfall Lodge, he saws down the barrel to achieve greater spread.
Machine Guns
Browning M2HB
A Browning M2HB heavy machine gun mounted on an Agusta-Westland AW101 helicopter is used by Silva's henchmen to shoot up Skyfall Lodge.
Aston Martin Machine Guns
Bond utilizes machine guns mounted underneath the lights of his customized DB5 when Silva's men attempt to storm Skyfall Lodge. The machine guns are a homage to the earlier Bond film Goldfinger, where the Aston Martin driven by Bond had the same armaments.
Other
AN/M14 Incendiary Grenade
Silva tosses AN/M14 incendiary grenades into Skyfall Lodge during the climax.
