The following weapons were used in the television series Ripper Street:


Pistols

Smith & Wesson Mk II Hand Ejector

Captain Homer Jackson (Adam Rothenberg) uses a Smith & Wesson Mk II Hand Ejector. This revolver is anachronistic as the series is set in 1889, and the Mk II Hand Ejector was not developed until 1915.

The Smith & Wesson Mk II Hand Ejector features prominently in "A Man of My Company" (S01E07) where it is revealed that Jackson has a pair (he is cleaning one whilst the other is on the table).
Long Susan (MyAnna Buring) picks up one of the revolvers, which Jackson then lets her keep for protection.
Susan uses the revolver when she confronts Theodore Swift.

Webley .455 Mk IV

A Webley .455 Mk IV is found on the body of a murderer in "The Good of This City" (S01E04). A Webley is also carried by George Doggett (Sam Hazeldine) in "The Weight of One Man's Heart" (S01E05).

Cobra Big Bore Derringer

A Cobra Big Bore Derringer is carried by Madoc Faulkner (Iain Glen) in "The Weight of One Man's Heart" (S01E05). This pistol is a modern improved variant of the time period appropriate Remington 1866 Derringer.

Kimar Derringer

Long Susan (MyAnna Buring) gives one of her girls, Bella (Gillian Saker) a chrome-plated Kimar Derringer for protection in "What Use Our Work?" (S01E08). The Kimar is a modern blank firing reproduction of the time period appropriate Remington 1866 Derringer.

Winchester Model 1866 "Yellow Boy"

A box of what appear to be Winchester Model 1866 "Yellow Boy" rifles is seen being unloaded by the Pinkerton agents in "A Man of My Company" (S01E07). The design of the rear sight and the placement of the barrel band, coupled with the fact that they are never used, suggests that they may actually be non-firing replicas manufactured by Denix.

At least six rifle can be seen in this case. Note the large rear sight and the barrel band placed in the middle of the handguard.
One of the "Yellow Boys" can be seen laying on the billiards table.

Winchester Model 1894

Frank Goodnight (Edoardo Ballerini) has a Winchester Model 1894 in "A Man of My Company" (S01E07). This rifle is anachronistic with the series taking place in 1889, five years before the rifle was introduced.
