			Yes I'm aware of that. But like the ones in this film are obviously percussion firearms, not cartridge conversions, as they still have percussion nipples. --[[User:JaredChastain1\| -Jared]] ([[User talk:JaredChastain1\|talk]]) 23:25, 25 August 2020 (EDT)

	I think all of the guns in this movie, save for the one SAA that is actually seen firing in the final gunfight, are non-firing replicas by Denix. I'm not certain, as I'm not entirely familiar with Denix replicas, but a friend of mine that lives in California and is into independent film making owns a few Denix replicas that he has used in some of his movies and one of them is an 1851 Navy replica that is identical to the one carried and used by the Entrepreneur in this film. He showed it to me in a Discord call recently. It would make sense that the ones in this movie are non-firing replicas as it is an indie film that was made in Canada by Canadians and I know how strict their gun laws are up there, so they probably couldn't afford to and/or didn't want to bother with going through all the difficulty to get real guns to use in this movie. As for the one SAA that we see firing in the final gunfight, it looks to me like it could be one of the blank-firing replicas from Blank Guns Depot, but I'm not certain as I can't get a close look at it. One thing I'm certain of, it's obvious that in both scenes when it shows the Sherpa and the Nomad firing it in lieu of their 1851 Navies, it's an intentional continuity error on the filmmakers part, because they probably slipped it in there so they could use blanks in that scene and get a couple clear shots of a gun actually firing with a muzzle flash and all and just counted on most people who would see the movie not noticing that it's a different gun. It's clear to me that the guys who made this movie didn't know much about guns themselves, as they have their characters walking around carrying percussion revolvers while also carrying useless metallic cartridges! There's even a scene where it is mentioned that one of the ammunition manufactures in the film's fictional universe uses "white powder" in their cartridges as opposed to black powder because it's cleaner (I'm aware that one of the early smokeless powders, Poudre B, invented by Paul Vieille in 1884, was actually called "white powder", but still, they obviously wouldn't be using that in 1851 Navy Colt percussion revolvers!). Firearm fallacies aside, I still found this movie to be pretty good, so there's that. :) --[[User:JaredChastain1\| -Jared]] ([[User talk:JaredChastain1\|talk]]) 19:21, 24 August 2020 (EDT)		I think all of the guns in this movie, save for the one SAA that is actually seen firing in the final gunfight, are non-firing replicas by Denix.
