= Revolvers =
== Smith & Wesson .44 Double Action ==
El Topo (Alejandro Jodorowsky) carries a bright nickel plated [[Smith & Wesson .44 Double Action]] revolver with pearl grips. The front sight of the revolver has low profile and rectangular shape in comparison with standard rounded front sights of .44 Smith & Wessons. Such front sight can be seen on the 5th Model of .38/.32 Smith & Wesson Double Action revolvers, but the screen gun with the 6-shot cylinder is definitly an .44 model, for which such sights are uncommon. El Topo's Son (Robert John) carries a similar revolver in the final scene.

== Colt New Service ==
The town priest (Julian de Meriche) uses a [[Colt New Service]] revolver with 4" or 4.5" barrel during the church service that include "Russian roulette". Judging by the plain wooden grips and the lanyard ring, the gun may be a [[Colt M1917]] military model but not for sure.

== Mauser Model 1895 / Model 1902 / Model 1910 Rifle ==
During the massacre of the crippled men, some townspersons are armed with Mexican Mauser Model 1895, 1902 or 1910 rifles. These three models are nearly identical and based on the [[1893 Spanish Mauser]]. Two first models were produced by DWM in Germany and Oviedo in Spain while Model 1910 is a Mexican domestic production.

== Mauser Model 1895 / Model 1903 / Model 1910 Carbine ==
During the massacre of the crippled men, a number of townspersons, notably the Sheriff's (José Antonio Alcaraz), are armed with Mexican Mauser Model 1895 or Model 1903, and Model 1910 Carbines. M1895 and M1903 carbines are nearly identical and based on the [[1893 Spanish Mauser]]. The domestic produced Model 1910 Carbine can be identified by a different front sight with large protective "ears".

== FN Mauser Model 1924 Short Rifle ==
About a dozen of [[Mauser Rifle Series|Mauser short rifles]] is seen in the gun rack in the sheriff's office. These are short rifles with straight bolt handles, the sling swivels below the stock and G98 style top barrel bands. Among the rifles in service in Mexico, [[FN Mauser Mle 1924]] seems to be the best choice. Some townspersons hold such rifles during the massacre of the crippled men.
