F Troop is a satirical comedy set in the American West and involving the personnel of F Troop, stationed at the fictional Fort Courage; the Hekawi, a peaceful tribe of Native Americans residing in a nearby village; and occassionally the Shug, an antagonistic tribe of Native Americans. Slapstick comedy is on display in most episodes, with the principal cast performing many of their own stunts. The show is set some time near or after the end of the American Civil War. Great liberties with the timeline are taken by the show's writers; in one episode, Abraham Lincoln is still the President (1865), while in another episode, General Custer has recently lost the Battle of the Little Bighorn (1876). Regardless, many of the firearms used in the show are anachronistic.
The following weapons were used in Season 1 of the television series F Troop:
Revolvers
Single Action Army Cavalry Model
Capt. Parmenter (Ken Berry), Sgt. O'Rourke (Forrest Tucker), Cpl. Agarn (Larry Storch), troopers, and Wrangler Jane (Melody Patterson) carry Single Action Army "Cavalry" model revolvers throughout Season 1. Sgt. Crawford (James Griffith) is seen with a "Cavalry" model in one episode.
Single Action Army Artillery Model
Sgt. O'Rourke, Cpl. Agarn, Bill Colton (Vic Tayback), Bob Colton (Robert Anderson (V)), Sam Urp (Jack Elam), Pedro (unknown actor), Jim Sweeney (Richard Reeves), Mike O'Hanlon (Ben Gage) and several troopers are seen with Single Action Army "Artillery" model revolvers.
Single Action Army Quick Draw Model
El Diablo (Larry Storch) and Felipe (Tony Martinez) carry Single Action Army "Quick Draw" model revolvers. Trooper Duddleson (Ivan Bell) uses a "Quick Draw" model revolver in one episode.
Captain Parmenter's Revolver Collection
Capt. Parmenter has a collection of revolvers mounted on the wall of his quarters.
Rifles
Model 1873 Springfield Trapdoor Carbine
The troopers are seen with Model 1873 Springfield Trapdoor Carbines throughout Season 1. Officers, Sgt. O'Rourke, Shug warriors and Hekawi warriors also use them in several episodes. Hannibal Dobbs is seen with a Trapdoor Carbine in one episode.
Trapdoor Springfield Model 1873
A continuity error occurs in "Honest Injun" (E12), as the troopers are all armed with Trapdoor Springfield Model 1873 rifles rather than carbines.
Winchester Model 1892 Saddle Ring Carbine
The Shug Chief (Henry Brandon), Shug warriors, Apache Chief Mean Buffalo (Victor Jory), Beware of Dog (Lou Wills Jr.) and Johnny Eagle Eye (Paul Peterson) use the Winchester Model 1892 Saddle Ring Carbine.
Winchester Model 1892
Sgt. O'Rourke, Cpl. Agarn, Wrangler Jane and Trooper Vanderbilt are seen with Winchester Model 1892 rifles with octagonal barrels. Shug warriors are also seen with rifles.
Lorenz Rifle
A rifle resembling the Lorenz Rifle is displayed in Capt. Parmenter's quarters throughout most of Season 1.
Chestwinster 76
Major Chester Winster (Andrew Duggan), Capt. Parmenter, Sgt. O'Rourke, Cpl. Agarn, troopers, Chief Wild Eagle (Frank DeKova), Crazy Cat (Don Diamond) and Smokey Bear (Ben Frommer) are seen with the Chestwinster 76. The Chestwinster 76 is a prop lever-action rifle built from a mocked-up bolt-action rifle.
Shotgun
12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun
Sgt. O'Rourke uses a 12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun.
Other
Shoe Gun
Capt. Parmenter and B Wise (Pat Harrington Jr.) are seen firing a shoe gun, i.e. a gun concealed in a shoe.
Model 1857 Light 12-pounder Gun
A cannon resembling the Model 1857 Light 12-pounder Gun, commonly referred to as the 12-pounder Napoleon, is seen in Episode 1. The same scene appears during the opening credits throughout Season 1.
Prop cannon
A cannon seen in Episode 1 is used by Union and Confederate soldiers. The same cannon is seen in Fort Courage throughout Season 1. It appears to be a prop due to the unusual barrel profile, lack of sights, lack of a knob on the cascabel, and unusual elevating hardware.
