The Labours of Hercules is a feature-length episode in Agatha Christie's Poirot film series, the fourth in Season 13.
The following weapons were used in the film Agatha Christie's Poirot: The Labours of Hercules:
WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS MAJOR SPOILERS!
FN Model 1910
Gustave (Richard Katz), the waiter in mountain-top hotel in Switzerland and the accomplice of crime mastermind Marrascaud, carries an FN Model 1910 pistol when he impersonates Swiss Police Lt. Drouet.
Walther P5 Compact (?)
When Gustave's pistol falls into precipice, it switches from FN 1910 to another gun that looks somewhat like a Walther P5 Compact but may be a mere toy gun.
Luger P08
Schwartz (Tom Wlaschiha), a hotel guest turned out to be real Lt. Drouet, uses a Luger P08. Lugers are also seen in hands of other Swiss policemen, including Inspector Lementeuil (Nicholas McGaughey).
Astra Cub
Alice Cunningham (Eleanor Tomlinson), who turns out to be crime mastermind Marrascaud, holds an Astra Cub pocket pistol in the climactic scene. This pistol is anachronistic for late 1930s when the story is set.
Walther PPK
Dr. Heinrich Lutz (Simon Callow), another Marrascaud's accomplice, uses a Walther PPK to take hostage ballet dancer Katrina Samoushenka (Fiona O'Shaughnessy).
