| - Indy's Pistol is Indy's Weapon.
- Indiana Jones frequently carried some type of handgun sidearm during his adventures, especially when attempting to obtain rare antiquities. Indy's first pistol was a French Modèle 1892 Revolver. In The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles World War I Western Front episodes, for the the Battle of the Somme and Verdun. Even though he never really pulls it out, he carries it in his holster. During Indy's mission in German East Africa, he carried a rare Belgian Nagant Model 1878 Revolver. In The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles episode German East Africa, December 1916, for the battle where he leads a charge for the Askari troops. His weapon of choice was a large Smith and Wesson Revolver ('N' frame type) with a shortened barrel. In Raiders of the Lost Ark Jones packs a .45 caliber S&W M1917, for the trip to Peru, which he ends up surrendering to Belloq; then in Cairo he uses a S&W 'Hand Ejector, Second Model' (also referred to as the 'Hand Ejector 2' or 'HE2') to dispatch the menacing Arab Swordsman. He also made use of a Colt New Service Revolver, and an Inglis-made Browning Hi-Power 9mm Automatic Pistol, on some of his adventures. By 1938, Jones carried a commercially-available British Webley "WG" Army Model .455 caliber revolver during his trip to find his missing father and recover the Holy Grail. (Note: While some written accounts indicate the model to be a Webley Mark VI, recent research and DVD screen captures prove that the 'screen used' pistol was the "WG" Army.) Comparing the types of weapons that he and his father preferred, Jones drew a sketch of it in his journal. The Webley accompanied Jones on his trip to Haiti with George McHale in 1941 in search of the Heart of Darkness. Jones found that the Webley was too heavy for fieldwork, although he is seen with the "WG" Army Model again during Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.
