=Revolvers=
==Colt 1851 Navy==
Lt. John J. Dunbar ([[Kevin Costner]]) keeps a [[Colt 1851 Navy]] as his sidearm throughout the film. It is actually converted to fire metallic cartridges which is safer then using blanks on a percussion revolver. Also seen in the hands of some high ranking Union officers. After a conversation with Dunbar, Major Fambrough ([[Maury Chaykin]]) puts a Colt 1851 Navy revolver to his head. Also John Dunbar's revolver could be considered as slightly anachronistic due to its model type. This particular revolver was built in London, England due to its appearance being a steel frame with black iron backstrap and black steel barrel. As only around 2,000 units were produced at the London Colt factory, it is highly unlikely that John would come by one.

It can be seen that the cylinder is one that houses metallic cartridges, but the rest of the revolver is untouched, to make the Colt look like a genuine Colt 1851 Navy from the Civil War period. Also can be seen the black iron backstrap and steel frame, indicating it to be a London produced Colt Navy]]

==Colt 1860 Army==
Several soldiers of the US Cavalry are seen armed with [[Colt 1860 Army]] revolvers as their sidearms. In what appears to be a continuity error, Sergeant Major Bauer ([[Larry Joshua]]) is seen trying to use a Colt Army revolver instead of the Remington he was holding earlier.

==Henry 1860==
Lt. John J. Dunbar ([[Kevin Costner]]) keeps a polished brass frame [[Henry 1860]], or as the Rebels called it, "That damned Yankee rifle you load on Sunday and shoot all week", as his rifle of choice throughout the film.

[[Image:DWWSpringfield1861-2.jpg|thumb|none|601px|Union soldiers march, all of them armed with Springfield 1861 rifles.]]

==Enfield 1853==
During the film's beginning, Sgt. Pepper ([[Tom Everett]]) can be seen loading an [[Enfield 1853]], not a Springfield 1861 as previously thought.

The rifle can be determined due to two factors: the shape of the ramrod end, being cylindrical in shape with a square hole punched through it for a jag cleaning cloth, unlike a more bulbous plain ramrod of the Springfield 1861, and because of the shape of the barrel bands being a more rounded shape from being cast, much unlike the barrel bands of a Springfield 1861 which are produced by being pressed and stamped. When the sergeant loads his Enfield, it appears that he forgets to load a Minie ball before preparing to ram the powder down the barrel.

==Sharps 1863==
To prepare for the attacking Pawnee Indians, Dunbar gives the Sioux Indians [[Sharps]] rifles, which based on the time are the 1863 models.

==Sharps 1863 Saddle Ring Carbine==
Dunbar is seen arming many of the Sioux with the [[Sharps]] Saddle Ring carbine, also appearing to be the 1863 model. These models are later seen in the hands of the US Cavalry, notably when they takes shots at Dunbar's pet wolf, Two Socks.

=Shotguns=
==Double Barreled Percussion Shotgun==
The Double Barreled [[Percussion Shotgun]] is first seen in the hands of Confederate soldiers at the beginning of the film. Timmons ([[Robert Pastorelli]]) keeps one at his side while driving Dunbar in his coach. After Timmons is murdered by Pawnee one of the warriors takes his shotgun. These shotguns are noted as muzzle loaders based on the ramrod underslung under the barrels.

== Kentucky Flintlock Rifle ==
Linus Rawlings ([[Jimmy Stewart]]), the beaver felt trader and "mountain man", carries a [[Kentucky Flintlock Rifle]] when he is seen riding his horse while among the Native Americans before meeting up with the Prescott family in present-day Ohio in 1839. Colin Harvey ([[Mark Allen]]) takes his father Alec's flintlock rifle when Linus first arrives at their camp. "Colonel" Jeb Hawkins' band of river pirates also carry flintlock rifles when they accost the Prescotts and Harveys. During the 1850s sequence, men riding in the wagon train west to California fire flintlock rifles at the attacking Cheyenne Indians. Some of the Indians seen during the 1860s railroad sequence also carry flintlock rifles, including one that fires at Zeb Rawlings.

== Flintlock Pistol ==
Several of "Colonel" Jeb Hawkins' river pirates (including one played by [[Lee Van Cleef]]) use various types of [[Flintlock Pistol]]s. Hawkins ([[Walter Brennan]]) himself also uses one.

== Adams revolver ==
Cleve Van Valen ([[Gregory Peck]]), a St. Louis gambler, tries to gamble during the wagon trip to California by betting a British made 1851 Adams evolver which he calls a "fine London-made pistol". When the Cheyennes attack, Cleve sticks the Adams revolver in his belt. However, when he draws it, it appears to be a much larger handgun (perhaps a [[Colt 1851 Navy]] based on the shape).
[[Image:Howest-rev1.jpg|thumb|none|650px|Cleve offers his Adams revolver in the poker game.]]

== Springfield Model 1861 ==
The Union soldiers during the Civil War battles seen between 1862 and 1865 carry [[Springfield 1861|Springfield Model 1861 and 1863]] rifles. Zeb Rawlings ([[George Peppard]]) has one as well, but it broke during an April 1862 battle at Shiloh, leaving only his bayonet as a useful combat weapon.

A young Confederate soldier, "The Reb" ([[Russ Tamblyn]]), shows Zeb a [[Colt 1851 Navy]] that he took from a dead officer and uses to try and shoot General Grant ([[Harry Morgan]]) and General Sherman ([[John Wayne]]). This is also possibly the revolver used by Cleve ([[Gregory Peck]]) to shoot a couple Cheyennes.

== Single Action Army ==
When Charlie Gant ([[Eli Wallach]]) joins his outlaw gang in Gold City, Arizona in 1889, he carries a [[Single Action Army]] with a 4.75" "Quickdraw" barrel. His gang members, including one played by [[Harry Dean Stanton]], also carry Single Action Army revolvers. The Gold City town marshal Lou Ramsey ([[Lee J. Cobb]]) uses a Single Action Army, as does Marshal Zeb Rawlings ([[George Peppard]]).

The Desert Rats

[[Image:thedesertrats-poster.jpg|thumb|right|300px|''The Desert Rats (1953)'']]

'''The Desert Rats''' is a 1953 war movie about the dramatic events that took place in 1941 in the North African theatre. After initial victories against the Italians who had colonized the area, the Allied troops were now being chased eastwards by the Germans under the command of General Rommel ([[James Mason]]), later in WWII to be promoted to Field Marshal.

The Australian 9th Division (whose nickname is in fact "The Rats of Tobruk", and not as the movie title incorrectly suggests "The Desert Rats") pulls back to the coastal town of Tobruk. They seek to avoid encirclement and become trapped with Rommel’s troops seeking to take the town as it is a thorn in their side on their way to the Suez Canal. The movie deals with the hardships endured during the siege by the unit of Capt. 'Tammy' MacRoberts ([[Richard Burton]]), who is from Scotland and thus has understandable challenges exercising his command upon an Australian army unit. The highlight of the movie is a commando raid led by Capt. 'Tammy' MacRoberts on an underground German ammunition dump.

The movie does not seem to have had an expert armorer since there’s an extraordinary number of errors in the use of military hardware. Only in a few scenes do the Germans actually use a German gun (the [[Mauser Gewehr 1898]] rifle), for the rest they are using Allied weapons such as the Thompson submachine gun and the Vickers/Browning 1917 machine guns. In one memorable scene, a German truck convoy is attacked by a plane that’s first a Spitfire with D-Day stripes (not to appear until June 1944) and a second later it’s an American Grumman Avenger (not to appear until 1942)…

'''The following guns were used in the film ''The Desert Rats'':'''

__TOC__ 

=Handguns=

==Colt Official Police==
A [[Colt Official Police]] is carried by Capt. 'Tammy' MacRoberts ([[Richard Burton]]) on most occasions. It was not surprising for an English officer at the time to carry an American revolver since many were supplied to allies in the framework of the Lend Lease support program.

==Enfield No.2==

A small number of [[Enfield No.2]]’s are seen carried by Allied officers on several occasions, most notably by Lt. Harry Carstairs ([[Charles Tingwell]]). Even though they are not shown clearly, they can be identified by the typical ‘hooked’ front sight and the design of the area between the trigger guard and the barrel.

=Submachine Guns=

==M1928A1 Thompson==
The [[Thompson Submachine Gun#M1928/M1928A1 Thompson|M1928A1 Thompson]] submachine gun, with smooth barrel, is seen in the hands of the Allied commandos under Capt. 'Tammy' MacRoberts ([[Richard Burton]]) when they blow up an underground German ammunition dump. Surprisingly, some Germans can also be seen using it instead of the [[MP40]]. Although this is understandable as German troops sometimes used captured weapons.

=Rifles=

==Lee-Enfield No.1 Mk.III==
The [[Short Magazine Lee-Enfield (SMLE)|Lee-Enfield No.1 Mk.III]] rifle is the most prominent gun in this movie, seen in the hands of almost all Allied troops. On a number of occasions bayonets are seen mounted and surprisingly, it is also seen in the hands of German soldiers during one of the attacks on Tobruk.

The only (…) German gun that the Germans actually use is the [[Mauser Gewehr 1898]] rifle. Even though a successor model for this rifle had been introduced in the 1930’s, the [[Karabiner 98k]] carbine, this rifle still saw use in several theatres.

==Vickers Mk1==
The [[Vickers#Vickers MK1 Machine Gun|Vickers MK1 machine gun]] has a strong presence in the movie, most notably in fixed positions in trenches across the Australian defences of Tobruk.

==Bren Mk2==
A [[Bren gun|Bren Mk2]] is used as one of the supporting weapons for the raid on the ammunition dump. It can also be seen in earlier scenes when Australian troops harass Germans with lethal night-time raids.

Hill Nothing fan: /* Smith & Wesson .44 Double Action */

'''Hard Times''' (also known as '''The Streetfighter''') is an action film set in Depression era New Orleans, starring [[Charles Bronson]] as Chaney, a drifter who arrives in the city and discovers an underground world of street fighters. He meets Speed ([[James Coburn]]), and enters the world, and is an instant hit. But many factors differ him the top. It was the first film directed by Walter Hill and was also written by him.

== Smith & Wesson .44 Double Action ==
The rival fight manager Pettibon ([[Edward Walsh]]) pulls a [[Smith & Wesson .44 Double Action]] when he refuses to give Speed ([[James Coburn]]) his winnings. When Speed sends Chaney ([[Charles Bronson]]) to Pettibon's bar to retrieve the money, he takes the revolver and fires at least 8 shots from it, although a .44 double action can only hold 6 shots. The revolver is not a Smith and Wesson Schofield as previously thought as the revolver appears to be smaller and the hammer matches that of a .44 double action. The Schofield latch is also missing from this revolver showing that it is not even a Schofield.

[[Image:Producers68Poster.jpg|thumb|right|300px|''The Producers'' (1968)]]

''The Producers'' is a 1968 comedy written and directed by Mel Brooks that stars [[Zero Mostel]] and [[Gene Wilder]] as a bankrupt Broadway producer and an accountant who devise a plan to dupe their investors by putting on a production based on an extremely offensive play. The film was eventually turned into an actual Broadway production and a [[The Producers (2005)|film adaptation of the musical]] was released in 2005.

'''The following firearms were used in the 1968 film ''The Producers'':'''

__TOC__ 
==Luger P08==
Franz Liebkind ([[Kenneth Mars]]) brandishes a [[Luger P08]] when confronting Max Bialystock ([[Zero Mostel]]) and Leo Bloom ([[Gene Wilder]]) after seeing his play. Both Max and Leo are seen handling the weapon as well. At one point, the Luger appears to lock empty, but Franz is seen continuing to fire. At one point Max tries to give Franz money so he could buy more ammunition and kill the actors of the play.

Nude Nuns with Big Guns

Hill Nothing fan: /* Smith & Wesson Schofield */

{{Unidentified}}

[[Image:NNwBG-poster.jpg|thumb|right|300px|''Nude Nuns with Big Guns'' (2010)]]

'''''Nude Nuns with Big Guns''''' is a 2010 nunsploitation spoof about Sister Sarah ([[Asun Ortega]]) who, after almost being beaten to death, takes revenge on those who drugged and abused her; corrupt local clergymen and members of the motorcycle gang ‘Los Muertos’.

Filmed on a relatively low budget, the movie has the same ingredients as such classics as ''[[From Dusk Till Dawn]]'' and ''[[El Mariachi]]''; sleazy bars, violent encounters, dusty road-side gas stations and artfully shot Texmex landscapes with accompanying dramatic Mexican guitar play.

It is likely that for budgetary reasons most guns have been procured from suppliers of non-firing replica guns. The actual supplier cannot be identified with certainty so for reasons of simplicity, the original gun is assumed below.

'''The following guns were used in the film ''[[Nude Nuns with Big Guns]]'':'''

__TOC__ 

==M1928 Thompson==
For the final shoot-out at the strip club that serves as the HQ of the ‘Los Muertos’ motorcycle gang, Sister Sarah ([[Asun Ortega]]) packs a [[Thompson Submachine Gun#M1928/M1928A1|M1928 Thompson]] submachine gun. She uses it to deadly effect on unlucky visitors and gang members who stand in her way of final revenge.

==Colt M1911A1==
Motorcycle gang ‘Los Muertos’ president Chavo ([[David Castro]]) carries an unidentified variant of the [[M1911A1]]. It may very well be some kind of non-firing dummy pistol because it has a strange ‘weathered’ look, the hammer does not lock back even when the trigger seems to be pulled back, and on many occasions it is held close too close for comfort next to actor’s faces.
[[Image: M1911Colt.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Colt M1911A1 Pistol - .45 ACP]]

==Ruger GP100==
The receptionist of the Palms Motel takes a stainless 4” [[Ruger GP100]] revolver as she apprehends Sister Sarah who was found out to be taking refuge in her motel.

==Smith & Wesson American==
When Sister Sarah is almost beaten to death by a visitor of the strip club, she is saved by Mr. Foo (Maxie J. Santillan Jr.) who gives her a pair of ornately engraved Smith and Wesson Model 3 American in nickel finish to carry out her revenge plans. The revolver is not a Schofield as the gun does not have the Schofield latch. She uses these revolvers during most of the following shoot-outs, carrying them backwards (‘grips aimed forward’) in shoulder holsters over her nun’s habit.

==Single Action Army==
Chavo ([[David Castro]]), Kick-Stand ([[Xango Henry]]) and most other bad guys pack [[Single Action Army]] ‘Cavalry Model’ non-firing replica’s of unknown make. Some have the characteristic ejector rods removed or shortened and most of the time they are carried in a casual style in a belt across the hips.

==J.C. Higgins Model 20==
During Sister Sarah’s raid on the cocaine processing facility, a ‘heroic’ member of the ‘Los Muertos’ motorcycle gang who guards the place is seen with a [[J.C. Higgins Shotgun Series#J.C. Higgins Model 20|J.C. Higgins Model 20]] with sawed-off stock and barrel.

[[Image:NNwBG-Rem870-02.jpg|thumb|none|600px]]

==Reck Miami 92F==
Apart from the [[Smith & Wesson Schofield]]’s that Sister Sarah keeps in shoulder holsters, she’s also packing a couple of nickel finished [[Beretta 92 pistol series#Reck Miami 92F|Reck Miami 92F]]’s in waist holsters. Apart from some dramatic cocking and loading shots, the [[Beretta 92 pistol series#Reck Miami 92F|Reck Miami 92F]]’s are not seen used by her.

==Unidentified pistol==
Father Carlito ([[Perry D'Marco]]) takes an unidentified compact gun from a cut-out bible when Sister Sarah catches up with him. It has gold-plated levers and bears some resemblance to the [[Bersa Thunder 380]] (which has a version with gold-plated levers). Also, [[Makarov PM]] and [[Walther PPK]] have been suggested, but not enough details can be seen for a positive identification.
[[Image:NNwBG-unidbiblegun-02.jpg|thumb|none|600px]]

==Unidentified revolvers==
During the final gunfight, several thugs show up carrying unidentified revolvers. They could be the previously used [[Single Action Army]] (left) and [[Ruger GP100]] (right) but again there are not enough details for positive identification.
[[Image:NNwBG-unidrevolver-02.jpg|thumb|none|600px]]

==Unidentified shotgun==
For her confrontation with the devious Father Carlito, Sister Sarah packs a sawn-off double barrel shotgun. The manufacturer cannot be identified, but the gun is well worn and could be of some local making.

Apart from the [[Smith & Wesson Schofield]]’s that Sister Sarah keeps in shoulder holsters, she’s also packing a couple of nickel finished [[Beretta 92 pistol series#Reck Miami 92F|Reck Miami 92F]]’s in waist holsters. Apart from some dramatic cocking and loading shots, the [[Beretta 92 pistol series#Reck Miami 92F|Reck Miami 92F]]’s are not seen used by her.

==Unidentified pistol==
Father Carlito ([[Perry D'Marco]]) takes an unidentified compact gun from a cut-out bible when Sister Sarah catches up with him. It has gold-plated levers and bears some resemblance to the [[Bersa Thunder 380]] (which has a version with gold-plated levers). Also, [[Makarov PM]] and [[Walther PPK]] have been suggested, but not enough details can be seen for a positive identification.

==Unidentified revolvers==
During the final gunfight, several thugs show up carrying unidentified revolvers. They could be the previously used [[Single Action Army]] (left) and [[Ruger GP100]] (right) but again there are not enough details for positive identification.

==Unidentified shotgun==
For her confrontation with the devious Father Carlito, Sister Sarah packs a sawn-off double barrel shotgun. The manufacturer cannot be identified, but the gun is well worn and could be of some local making.

[[Image:True-GritDVDcover.jpg|thumb|right|300px|''True Grit (1969)'']]

''True Grit'' was the classic 1969 Western that starred [[John Wayne]] as Deputy U.S. Marshal "Rooster" Cogburn, who is hired by a young girl to hunt down the man who murdered her father. Wayne returned to the role in the 1975 sequel, ''[[Rooster Cogburn]]'', which co-starred [[Katharine Hepburn]]. The film was based on the Charles Portis novel of the same name, which was adapted again as a feature film in [[True Grit (2010)|2010]], with [[Jeff Bridges]] in the role of Cogburn.

'''The following firearms were used in the film ''True Grit'':

__TOC__ 

==Single Action Army==
Deputy U.S. Marshal Reuben J. "Rooster" Cogburn ([[John Wayne]]) keeps a [[Single Action Army|Colt Single Action Army]] or "Peacemaker" with a 4 3/4" barrel, known as the "Civilian" or "Quick Draw" model, and fitted with mellow aged ivory-style grips as his sidearm of choice throughout the film. "Lucky" Ned Pepper ([[Robert Duvall]]) also keeps a Quick Draw Peacemaker which he uses when facing Rooster during the film's climax. While watching Rooster load his Peacemaker, Mattie Ross ([[Kim Darby]]) asks him why he keeps one chamber empty, to which he replies, "So I won't shoot ''my'' foot off." Carrying a single-action revolver with the hammer resting on an empty chamber is in fact a good safety method, because if the hammer were resting on a loaded chamber and something strikes the hammer, the gun could discharge and possibly cause some kind of injury. Rooster wields his Peacemaker with his Winchester Model 1892 rifle in akimbo at the climax of the film. At one point in the film, Rooster tells Mattie about how when he was in the Civil War, he did the same dual wielding guns method while on horseback. He claims he fired two "Navy sixes" with the reins in his teeth. The two "Navy sixes" he mentioned using were either a pair of Colt Model 1851 Navy Revolvers - .36 caliber (or one of it's many Southern copies, such as the [[Griswold & Gunnison Revolver]] since Rooster fought for the Confederates), a pair of Colt Model 1861 Navy Revolvers - .36 caliber, or one of each. It is possible they were a pair of .36 caliber "Navy" versions of the [[Remington 1858 New Army|Remington Model 1858 New Army]] or a pair of .36 caliber Navy versions of the [[Starr Army Revolver|Starr Model 1858 Double-Action Revolvers]], but this is unlikely as the Starr revolver was unpopular and the Colt Navy and Army revolvers and the Army version of the Remington 1858 were more commonly used than the .36 caliber variants of the Remington Model 1858 in the Civil War. John Wayne actually used three identical Colt Single Action Army revolvers in this film. Two of them were rented to him by the company called Stembridge. They were genuine Colt Single Action Army revolvers and one of them was either chambered for .44-40 Winchester Center Fire or .45 Long Colt, while the second one was definitly chambered for .45 Long Colt. The third one was Waynes own personal gun. Although he owned many Colt Single Action Army revolvers, this gun, serial number 309795, was the only one of his personal Colt Single Action Army revolvers he used in his films. This gun did most of the shooting in his films. Even though it was always billed as a .45 Colt, it was chambered for .44-40 WCF in reality. The interesting part is, this gun (serial no. 309795) didn't leave the factory as a regular Colt Single Action Army. It was originally a Colt Single Action Army "Bisley Model" with a 5.5 inch "Artillery" barrel, and was chambered in .45 Long Colt. It was later rebuilt to resemble an average Colt Single Action Army with a "Civilian"/"Quickdraw" Model barrel and was converted to fire .44-40 WCF cartridges. All three of these guns were fitted with ivory-style grips (manufactured by Maurice D. Scarlac out of a material he developed called Catalin). Wayne like them so much that he took these grips home and personally "tea-stained" them to give them that desirable "mellow aged ivory" look. Two sets of these grips were made for Wayne (the second set being a spair just in case if the first set broke). These grips all had three finger grooves in the left-hand side of the grips for Wayne middle, ring, and "little" fingers of Wayne's right hand for as they wrapped around the revolvers grip frame. The grooves can be clearly seen in the climactic gunfight between Rooster and "Lucky" Ned Pepper and his gang when Rooster has the gun tucked in his waist band.

==Winchester 1892 "Saddle Ring Carbine"==
Rooster Cogburn ([[John Wayne]]) keeps a [[Winchester Model 1892|Winchester 1892 "Saddle Ring Carbine"]] with a large lever loop chambered in .44-40 as his rifle of choice throughout the film and is most notably seen using it during the film's climax when he fires it akimbo style along with his Single Action Army, twirling the rifle with the large lever loop to cock it with one hand. (This action most likely inspired the same technique used by [[Arnold Schwarzenegger]] with the [[Winchester Model 1887]] shotgun in [[Terminator 2: Judgement Day|T2]]). Wayne and stuntman Yakima Canutt created the so-called Hollywood lever for the movie Stagecoach. It was a technique refined by Chuck Connors in TV's Rifleman and Connors was clearly the master of spin-cocking a model 1892(easy for Connors who was 6' 5" tall).

==Colt Walker 1847==
Mattie Ross ([[Kim Darby]]) inherits her father's civil war handgun when he dies, which is a [[Colt Walker|Colt Walker 1847]]. Mattie uses it when she encounters Tom Chaney ([[Jeff Corey]]) and is knocked down by the recoil of the gun (which is a bit unrealistic) and manages to shoot him in the gut with it. He then manages to charge her and take the gun due to several misfires (which were Rooster's fault, as he had loaded it incorrectly while drunk, and also overloaded the chambers with powder which caused the tremendous recoil). The gun manages to fire once more in the hands of Mattie and grazes Chaney's head though the recoil knocks her into a snake pit. When Mattie first shows the gun to Rooster, he calls it a Colt's Dragoon but it is clearly too large and lacks a loading lever latch that the Dragoon models had. Also the Walker has no percussion nipples showing that it is firing cartridges.

[[Image:TrueGritWalkercoltcartridge-7.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Mattie gives Rooster her Walker Colt at the end of the film.]]

==Sharps 1874 Cavalry Carbine==
La Boeuf ([[Glen Campbell]]) uses a [[Sharps|Sharps 1874 Cavalry Carbine]] as his rifle of choice throughout the film. When hunting, he manages to pretty much destroy a Turkey with the rifle. Later in the film he manages to shoot Ned Pepper's horse from a long distance and is mocked by Rooster for missing the shot claiming, "Maybe next time if you aim for for the horse, you might hit Pepper." He fairs better at the film's climax and manages to shoot Pepper off his horse from an impressive distance before he can kill Rooster.

[[Image:TrueGritSharps1874cavalarycarbine-6.jpg|thumb|none|600px|La Boeuf shoots Ned Pepper off his horse with his Sharps Carbine.]]

==Colt New Service (mock-up)==
Lucky Ned Pepper ([[Robert Duvall]]) is seen in a few scenes using a [[Colt New Service|Colt New Service]] revolver mocked up to look like a Single Action Army by adding a fake ejector rod. (See also [[The Long Riders]].) These guns were used by actors too slow to handle a single action only revolver and required a double action trigger pull for quicker shots. It is strange why he uses this gun as he is never required to fire it rapidly and when facing Rooster at the end of the film, the gun switches to an actually SAA instead.

[[Image:TrueGritColtDAmockup-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ned Pepper firing his mocked-up New Service at Rooster during the climax of the film before it turns into an actual SAA.]]

==Winchester 1866 "Yellow Boy" (mocked up like Henry 1860)==
Tom Chaney ([[Jeff Corey]]) is seen using a [[Winchester 1866 "Yellow Boy"]] rifle with the forend removed to look like a [[Henry 1860]] rifle to murder Frank Ross ([[John Pickard]]), Matties' father. Dialogue confirms they intended the gun to be a Henry rifle in the film. Later, Chaney is seen with an actually Henry instead.

[[Image:TrueGritWin66-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Chaney with the Winchester 1866 rifle. Note how it clearly has a loading gate instead of a twisting barrel, which shows it is not a Henry rifle.]]

==Henry 1860==
Tom Chaney ([[Jeff Corey]]) is later seen with an ''actual'' [[Henry 1860]] when Mattie first finds him. He keeps a sling attached to it.

[[Image:TrueGritHenryrifle-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Chaney armed with his Henry 1860 when he meets Mattie. Note how the rifle clearly has a twisting barrel instead of a loading gate.]]

==12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun==
A U.S. Marshal helping Rooster Cogburn unload the outlaws from the Indian territory is armed with a [[12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun]]. Later, Farrell Parmalee ([[Kenneth Becker]]) is seen armed with a side-by-side as well.

==Winchester 1894 Saddle Ring Carbine==
A U.S. Marshal helping unload outlaws from the Indian territory is seen armed with a [[Winchester Model 1894|Winchester 1894 Saddle ring Carbine]] rifle. He is seen with it in hand when telling Mattie to wait another day to talk to Rooster Cogburn. Later in the film, Ned Pepper is seen with a '94 rifle and fires it into the air to let Rooster know where he is. It clearly has a longer receiver and the more complex lever system under the gun helping tell it from an 1892 rifle.

Zulu Dawn

Hill Nothing fan: /* Winchester Model 1892 */

{{incompletepage}}
'''The following weapons were used in the film ''Zulu Dawn'':'''

[[Image:Zuludawn.jpg|thumb|right|400px|Zulu Dawn (1978)]]
__TOC__ 

==Webley Mk VI==
Used by British Officers. Like the earlier film, Zulu, the Webley mark IV stands in for the earlier Webley and Adams models which were either standard issue or privately purchased.
[[Image:Webley.JPG|thumb|none|400px|Webley Mk. VI - .455 Webley]]

[[Image:Web_bl.jpg‎ |thumb|none|500px|Webley Mk IV]]

[[Image:Webbh.jpg‎ |thumb|none|500px|Webley Mk IV. In reality NCO's would have been issued Adams revolvers.]]

==Webley Pryse==
Colonel Pulleine ([[Denholm Elliott]]) uses a Webley Pryse before he is killed. This weapon was commonly privately purchased by officers during this period. Mr Fannin (Don Leonard), the Boer merchant who is chased by Zulu warriors, also appears to have this model pistol.
[[Image:Pryse.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Webley-Pryse - .476 Enfield]]
[[Image:Webpryse.jpg‎ |thumb|none|500px|Colonel Pulleine ([[Denholm Elliott]]) has the Webley revolver.]]

[[Image:Webleypryse.jpg‎ |thumb|none|500px|Webley Pryse]]

==Martini-Henry==
Used by some British Troops.
[[Image:Martini-HenryMarkIII(1881-1888).jpg|thumb|none|400px|Martini-Henry Mk.III - .450 Boxer-Henry]]
[[Image:mh3.jpg‎ |thumb|none|600px|Martini Henry artillery carbine]]

==Martini-Enfield Carbine==
Both cavalry and infantry use the Martini-Enfield Artillery carbine during the film, likely due to a shortage of .450 blanks. This is inaccurate as the infantry used the rifle version shown above. Mention is made that Col. Durnford's cavalry is wholly equipped with these weapons which is also inaccurate as in reality they were largely equipped with Sniders or Westley Richards carbines.

[[Image:Martini-enfield carbine.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Martini-Enfield Artillery Carbine - .303 British]]

[[Image:Cavcarbpist.jpg |thumb|none|600px|Martini Henry carbines. Also note the Webley Mk IV in the foreground.]]

[[Image:Pdvd_001.jpg‎ |thumb|none|600px|Martini Henry carbines]]

==Short Magazine Lee-Enfield (SMLE)==

During several of the battle scenes SMLEs can be seen being used by British troops. This is incorrect as these weapons were not produced until 1902.
[[Image:SMLE.jpg|thumb|none|400px|SMLE Mk.III - .303 British]]
[[Image:Leeenfield.jpg‎ |thumb|none|600px|Lee Enfields]]

==Winchester Model 1892==

The reporter Norris Newman (Ronald Lacey) carries a Winchester 1892 rifle. The rifle is anachronistic since the movie is set in 1879.

[[Image:Winchesterzuludawn.jpg‎ |thumb|none|600px|Winchester in "Zulu Dawn".]]

==Unidentified Shotgun==

Lt. William Vereker (Simon Ward) uses an unidentified side hammer double barrel shotgun to demonstrate his riding and shooting skill to Col. Durnford (Burt Lancaster).

[[Image:Shotty.jpg‎ |thumb|none|600px|Unidentified shotgun in "Zulu Dawn".]]

==Zulu Weapons==
Zulu warriors use several different types of rifle during the film, many of which are seen briefly and are hard to identify, these include:

Martini Henrys, many Zulus use these weapons throughout the film and whilst this is acceptable at the end of the battle when they could have been taken from the dead, it is unlikely the Zulus possessed any at the start of the conflict as British and European traders only released or sold older rifles and muskets to the Zulus. Many of the rifles used at the throughout the battle are clearly Martini Henrys, but I could not obtain decent screen caps of them.

==Artillery==

The artillery appears to be 9pdr RML Mk 2’s which are incorrect as the actual weapons used in the battle were much smaller 7pdr cannon.

==Goofs==
There are many goofs in this film, in many scenes British soldiers switch from Henry Martini rifles and carbines between shots. During the battle only some of the British troops have bayonets fitted to their rifles when they should all have fitted them before the battle began. Many of the bayonets are either incorrectly fitted or obviously made of rubber. Also evident are the fact that many of the Henry Martini rifles are actually wooden props.

Remington 1858 New Army

2012-06-01T15:26:14Z

Hill Nothing fan: /* Specifications */

Remington & Son manufactured a percussion .36-(Navy) or .44-(Army) caliber revolver used during the American Civil War from 1862 onwards.It was used primarily by Union soldiers, and widely favored over the standard issue Colt Army Model 1860 by those who could afford it, due primarily to its durability and ability to quickly reload by swapping out cylinders. It also saw use in the American West, both in its original percussion configuration and as a metallic cartridge conversion.

Dances With Wolves

Hill Nothing fan: /* Colt 1851 Navy */

[[Image:DanceswithWolvescover.jpg|thumb|right|300px|''Dances With Wolves (1990)'']]

'''The following weapons were used in the film ''Dances With Wolves'':'''

'''All the guns in this film were supplied by Aldo Uberti Inc. of Italy.'''

__TOC__ 

==Colt 1851 Navy==
Lt. John J. Dunbar ([[Kevin Costner]]) keeps a [[Colt 1851 Navy]] as his sidearm throughout the film. It is actually converted to fire metallic cartridges which is safer then using blanks on a percussion revolver. Also seen in the hands of some high ranking Union officers. Major Fambrough ([[Maury Chaykin]]) kills himself with one. Also John Dunbar's revolver could be considered as slightly anachronistic due to its model type. This particular revolver was built in London, England due to its appearance being a steel frame with black iron backstrap and black steel barrel. As only around 2,000 units were produced at the London Colt factory it is highly unlikely that John would come by one.
[[Image:1851Navy.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Colt 1851 Navy - .36 caliber.]]
[[Image:DWWColt1851-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A drunk Major Fambrough ([[Maury Chaykin]]) commits suicide with a Colt 1851 Navy revolver.]]
[[Image:DWWColt1851-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Lt. John Dunbar ([[Kevin Costner]]) points his Colt 1851 Navy at Timmons ([[Robert Pastorelli]]) when he refuses to help him unload his stuff.]]

[[Image:DWWColt1851-4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Dunbar fires his 1851 Navy at the attacking Pawnees, although Costner fakes the recoil a little too much.]]
[[Image:DWWColt1851-5.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Dunbar struggles to shoot a Pawnee with his 1851 Navy when he attacks him. It can be seen that the cylinder is one that houses metallic cartridges, but the rest of the revolver is untouched, to make the Colt look like a genuine Colt 1851 Navy from the Civil War period. Also can be seen the black iron backstrap and steel frame, indicating it to be a London produced Colt Navy]]
[[Image:DWWColt1851-6.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Dunbar fires his 1851 Navy at the Pawnees while on horseback. He then tosses it away when empty.]]

==Henry 1860==
Lt. John J. Dunbar ([[Kevin Costner]]) keeps a polished brass frame [[Henry 1860]] rifle, or as the Rebels called it, "That damned Yankee rifle you load on Sunday and shoot all week", as his main weapon of choice throughout the film.
[[Image:Henry.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Brass-framed Henry 1860 - .44RF]]

[[Image:DWWHenry1860-7.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Stands With a Fist ([[Mary McDonnell]]) holds Dunbar's Henry rifle.]]

==Springfield 1861==
Dunbar's sergeant friend can be seen loading an Enfield 1853, not a Springfield 1861 as previously thought. This can be determined due 1. the shape of the ramrod end, being cylindrical in shape with a square hole punched through it for a jag cleaning cloth, unlike a more bulbous plain ramrod of the Springfield 1861. 2. Because of the shape of the barrel bands being a more rounded shape from being cast, much unlike the barrel bands of a Springfield 1861 which are produced by being pressed and stamped.[[Image:Springfield1861.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Springfield 1861 - .58 caliber Mini-ball.]]
[[Image:DWWSpringfield1861-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Sgt. Pepper ([[Tom Everett]]) loads a cartridge into his Enfield 1853. It is obviously a blank firing rifle because he doesn't load a .58cal Minie ball in with the powder.]]

Also Enfield 1853 rifles are being fired at Dunbar while he attempts a suicide run.]]

==Enfield 1853==
Confederate soldiers carry Springfield 1851 and Enfield 1853 rifles as their standard issue weapons.

[[Image:DWWColt1860-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Spivey ([[Tony Pierce]]) fires his Colt 1860 Army at Two Socks. Based on the divots in the cylinder this appears to be a zinc replica.]]

It changed from a Remington 1858 revolver, which he was actually seen crawling through the river with.]]

==Sharps 1863==
To prepare for the attacking Pawnee Indians, Dunbar gives the Sioux Indians [[Sharps]] rifles, which based on the time are 1863 models.
[[Image:DWWSharps-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A Sioux elder fires a Sharps 1863.]]

==Sharps 1863 Saddle Ring Carbine==
Dunbar also gives many of the Sioux [[Sharps]] Saddle Ring carbines, also assumed to be the 1863 model. Union soldiers are later seen almost entirely armed with Sharps Carbines in the film, and use them to sadly shoot down Dunbar's pet wolf, Two Socks.

==Colt Walker 1847==
A Confederate Cavalryman ([[Bill W. Curry]]) is seen armed with a [[Colt Walker|Colt Walker 1847]] revolver.

[[Image:DWWColtWalker.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A Confederate Cavalryman armed with a Colt Walker 1847.]]

==12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun Muzzleloader==
[[12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun]] Muzzleloaders are seen used by some of the Confederate soldiers at the beginning of the film and Timmons ([[Robert Pastorelli]]) keeps one at his side while driving Dunbar in his coach. They are noted as muzzle loaders based on the ramrod underslung under the barrels.

Remington 1858 New Army

2012-02-28T22:37:41Z

Hill Nothing fan: /* Film */

Remington & Son manufactured a percussion .36-(Navy) or .44-(Army) caliber revolver used during the American Civil War from 1862 onwards.It was used primarily by Union soldiers, and widely favored over the standard issue Colt Army Model 1860 by those who could afford it, due primarily to its durability and ability to quickly reload by swapping out cylinders. It also saw use in the American West, both in its original percussion configuration and as a metallic cartridge conversion.

Hill Nothing fan:

[[Image:Alc-poster.jpg|thumb|right|300px|''Al Capone'' (1959)]]
'''The following firearms can be seen in the film ''Al Capone'':'''
__TOC__ 

== Colt Detective Special ==
[[Colt Detective Special]]s are the handgun of choice for most characters in the film, despite it being an anachronistic choice for the scenes prior to 1927. John Scalise ([[Ron Soble]]) and Albert Anselmi ([[Steve Gravers]]), Capone's main triggermen, carry Detective Specials in shoulder holsters. Dion O'Banion ([[Robert Gist]]), an early rival of Capone's, notably carries three. Capt. Schaefler ([[James Gregory]]), of the Chicago Police Department, keeps one as his primary sidearm as well. When Capone ([[Rod Steiger]]) arrives in Philadelphia, he and his bodyguard are arrested for each carrying one concealed, although we never see Capone actually handling one within the film., and for real life Al Capone carried a Colt Police Positive

== Thompson M1921AC ==
Beginning in 1924, the [[Thompson#M1921 Thompson|Thompson M1921AC]] is seen as the main instrument of gangland violence, notably used by Scalise ([[Ron Soble]]) and Anselmi ([[Steve Gravers]]) during the infamous 1929 St. Valentine's Day Massacre. George "Bugs" Moran ([[Murvyn Vye]]) and Earl "Hymie" Weiss ([[Lewis Charles]]) also handle Thompsons throughout.
