''Glory'' is the 1989 Civil War film that recounts the formation of the 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry Regiment, the first all-black Union regiment to fight in the Civil War. The film stars [[Matthew Broderick]], [[Morgan Freeman]], and [[Denzel Washington]] in his Oscar-winning role. It was directed by [[Edward Zwick]], who went on to direct such films as ''[[The Last Samurai]]'', ''[[Courage Under Fire]]'', ''[[Blood Diamond]]'', and ''[[Defiance]]''.

==Colt 1851 Navy==
The [[Colt 1851 Navy]] revolver is the sidearm carried by most of the Union officers in the film, notably Col. Robert Gould Shaw ([[Matthew Broderick]]) and Major Cabot Forbes ([[Cary Elwes]]), who use them during the 54th's first engagement.

==Enfield Pattern 1853==
The reproduction [[Enfield Pattern 1853]] rifle, made by EuroArms, London Armoury, used by the men of the 54th in the film. Also seen used by Confederate Troops as well. Incorrectly, the rifle muskets are presented as having serial numbers, which original Enfields lacked. As well, the EuroArms reproduction Enfield is actually of a variant which was NOT brought into North America during the Civil War. Instead, it represents the variant which was used in the Snider conversion.
