WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS MAJOR SPOILERS!

Revolvers

Enfield No. 2 Mk I

An Enfield No. 2 Mk I is a murder weapon in "Muse" (S05E01).

Enfield No. 2 Mk. I Original configuration with spurred hammer - .38 S&W

An Enfield No. 2 Mk I is found by police in the glove box of Joey Sikes' (Victor Gardener) car. Dr. DeBryn correctly identified the gun as .38 caliber.

An Enfield No. 2 Mk I is seen on the table in painter Gerard Pickman's (Tom Wisdom) workshop. According to the story, it's a different gun but very likely same prop is used.

Sikes' revolver is seen in the glove box in the flashback scene, revealing the murder.

Ruth Astor (Antonia Clarke) fires at Sikes.

Webley .455 Mk VI

Edmund Gordon (David Shaw Parker) holds a Webley .455 Mk VI in the climactic scene in "Cartouche" (S05E02).

Webley Mk VI - .455 Webley

Gordon draws the revolver.

He aims at Emil Valdemar (Donald Sumpter).

DS Endeavour Morse (Shaun Evans), DCI Fred Thursday (Roger Allam), and DS Jim Strange (Sean Rigby) use Webley .38 Mk IV revolvers in several scenes in "Icarus" (S05E06).

Unidentified revolver

A revolver is briefly seen near a dead body of one of Eddie Nero's henchmen after the gang war in "Icarus" (S05E06).

A short-barreled revolver is seen near the hand of dead Nero's henchman. Another dead man also holds some handgun but it is in complete shadow and it's impossible to say even if it is a revolver or a pistol.

Pistols

Luger P08

A Luger P08 is a murder weapon in "Colours" (S05E04).

Luger P08 - 9x19mm

A spent 9mm brass, found on the place of the murder. An expert explains that it's a German ammo, produced in 1944.

Dr. Laidlaw's student Kit Hutchens (Greg Austin) takes a Luger from the table in Laidlaw's office, full of Nazi Germany relics.

Hutchens examines the pistol when Morse comes in.

The Luger is seen on the table.

A flashback scene reveals Dr. Rex Laidlaw (Dominic Thorburn) commiting the murder.

Walther PPK

Millie Bagshot (Ellie Haddington) uses a supressed Walther PPK in "Quartet" (S05E05).

Mille Bagshot takes the gun.

Colt M1911A1

An M1911A1 is hold by dying Eddie Nero (Mark Arden) after the battle with Cromwell Ames' gang in "Icarus" (S05E06).

Pre-War Colt M1911A1 - Commercial Model known as the "Colt Government Model" - .45 ACP. This has a deep Colt factory blued finish, common for commercial variants before and after the war.

Gravely wounded Eddie Nero holds his pistol.

When Thursday orders Nero to drop the gun, the gangster says that it's empty. In reality, an empty M1911 would have its slide locked in rear position.

Another view of the scene.

Unidentified pistols

Two pistols are seen on the shelf in Dr. Laidlaw's office in "Colours" (S05E04).

Two pistols are seen on the shelf at the background center.

A pistol at the left is seen slightly better.

Flintlock/Percussion Cap Pistols

A pair of antique pistols is also seen in Dr. Laidlaw's office in "Colours" (S05E04).

Two antique pistols are seen over the locker at the right.

Submachine Guns

M1921 Thompson

Cromwell Ames' gang uses an M1921 Thompson submachine gun during the attempt on rival gang boss Eddie Nero (Mark Arden) in "Icarus" (S05E06). While this weapon is not a modern one for late 1960s, the Tommy Gun in classic 1920s version, with a foregrip and a 50-round drum magazine, may be used as a symbol of gang wars of old.

Colt M1921A Thompson with 50-round drum magazine - .45 ACP

Ames' henchman fires from a car.

The barrel without Cutts compensator allows to identify this Tommy Gun as M1921.

Rifles

Karabiner 98k

In the climactic scene in "Colours" (S05E04) Dr. Rex Laidlaw (Dominic Thorburn) uses a wartime Karabiner 98k.

Karabiner 98k - 7.92x57mm Mauser

Laidlaw fires at Morse.

A closeup of the bolt.

A general view of the rifle.

The top barrel band is "Kriegsmodell" style but the rifle has bayonet lug and cleaning rod on place while these parts were omitted on "Kriegsmodell". Supposedly the screen gun was assembled from parts of several 98k of differfent modifications.

Lee-Enfield No. 4 Mk I

Lee-Enfield No. 4 Mk I rifles are used in "Icarus" (S05E06), seen in hands of police constables and also of schoolboys serving in the Combined Cadet Force of Coldwater public school.

Lee-Enfield No. 4 Mk I - .303 British

Cadets fire on shooting range.

A cadet reloads his rifle.

A constable holds a rifle when police appears at the scene of a clash between two gangs.

Stanlow (Aldo Maland) cleans a rifle.

He puts the rifle in gun rack. Strangely, the battle rifles are stored not in a safe but in a simple wooden locker.

Morse and Thursday find out that one rifle is missing. While all Lee-Enfields in the gun rack are standard rifles, as it can be seen on previous screenshot, in next scene we see Stanlow holding a rifle with sniper scope (see below).

Lee-Enfield No. 4 Mk I (T)

In the climactic scene in "Icarus" (S05E06) Stanlow (Aldo Maland), a bullied Coldwater schoolboy, takes a Lee-Enfield No. 4 Mk I (T) rifle from gun rack, planning to fire at his abusers, both teachers and classmates. This scene pays clear homage to If..., filmed in 1968 - same year when the plot of "Icarus" is set.
