WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS!

Pistols

Colt MK IV Series 70

The Front Man / Hwang In-ho (Lee Byung-hun) uses a nickel-plated Colt MK IV Series 70 throughout the series for self-defense and for executing both players and soldiers. He appears to be a left-handed shooter.

Walther PPK/S (lighter)

A cigarette lighter shaped like a Walther PPK/S caught at a prize machine is inadvertently given by Seong Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) to his daughter Ga-yeong as her birthday gift in "Red Light, Green Light" (S1E01).

Walther PPK/S blued - .380 ACP

Ga-yeong opens the gift box to reveal a rather inappropriate birthday gift to a little girl.

She ignites the lighter, much to her shock and to Gi-hun's embarrassment.

Gi-hun later "threatens" a man he mistakes for a preacher at the subway station.

Revolvers

Colt Python

A soldier is briefly seen using a Colt Python in "The Man with the Umbrella" (S1E03).

Smith & Wesson Model 10

Smith & Wesson Model 10 revolvers with wooden grips are carried by Managers (Squares), namely one in "Hell" (S1E02) who fires one shot into the air to silence rioting players. The Soldiers (Triangles) mostly carry the Model 19 revolver listed below. Due to a continuity error in the final episode, Hwang Jun-ho (Wi Ha-joon), a police officer who infiltrates the island where the players are held is seen holding what appears to be a Model 10 instead of the Model 19 he is previously seen armed with in "Front Man" (S1E08).

Smith & Wesson Model 19

Smith & Wesson Model 19 revolvers with rubber grips are carried by Soldiers, mainly to execute players who fail to complete games. In "The Man with the Umbrella" (S1E03), player 119 steals a revolver from a Soldier which he then uses to shoot a Manager in the leg and then hold him hostage. The same model, but with wooden grips, is used by Hwang Jun-ho (Wi Ha-joon) after sneaking onto the island. The Front Man in "VIPs" (S1E07) erroneously identifies it (somehow by inspecting a bullet fired from the revolver) as a Model 60, a stainless steel version of the Smith & Wesson Model 36, which the revolver visibly isn't.

Submachine Guns

Heckler & Koch MP5A3

Heckler & Koch MP5A3 submachine guns are the primary long gun of Soldiers while patrolling, overseeing players, and sometimes for executions. Some of them have a Picatinny rail attached, however they appear to be entirely cosmetic as no accessories are mounted on them. Some MP5s also appear as prop replicas.

Sniper Rifles

Knight's Armament SR-25

Players are "eliminated" by what appear to be Knight's Armament SR-25 sniper rifles set up on bipods and equipped with the KAC MK11 MOD 0 suppressor during the first game in "Red Light, Green Light" (S1E01). Despite being fitted with a suppressor, the rifles sound unsuppressed when fired.
