One brigand uses a flintlock long gun during the final shootout. It is very unclear, but the general shape resembles a [[Brown Bess Carbine]]. Another (probably the same) musket with the same shape is seen in the hands of another brigand during the robbery.

The story takes place in the early 18th century (before 1713, the year of Jánošík's death), but many of the weapons that appear in this movie were designed more than a hundred years later.
The following weapons were used in the film Jánošík:
Several soldier, includng Pišta (Jozef Chylo), fire Percussion Cap Pistols during the manhunt. Juraj Jánošík (Theodor Pistek) uses another Percussion Cap Pistol in the church.
Several soldiers are armed with the anachronistic Chassepot 1866. This rifle can be ID'd by the yataghan bayonets (the only other rifle with a yataghan bayonet is the breech-loaded Werndl Rifle, which lacks a bolt handle, while screen rifles are single-shot bolt action).
