The Good, the Bad, the Weird is a Korean "western" inspired by Sergio Leone's The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. A "kimchi western" as director Kim Ji-woon described it, it was released in South Korea in 2008, and in limited release in the United States in 2010. It stars Jung Woo-sung as Park Do-won (The Good, a bounty hunter) Lee Byung-hun as Park Chang-yi (The Bad, a hitman) and Song Kang-ho as Yoon Tae-goo (The Weird, a thief) as they and other interested parties chase buried treasure (and each other) across Japanese-occupied Manchuria during the 1930's.
The following weapons were used in the film The Good, the Bad, the Weird:
Park Chang-yi (Lee Byung-hun) is seen most with a Webley Mk IV revolver. His henchmen also carry them. (The movie poster above shows Park Chang-yi holding the Webley in his bare left hand. Anyone who has seen the movie knows this is a goof. His image appears to be reversed, as his boy-band hair is supposed to cover his RIGHT eye.)
Park Do-won (Jung Woo-sung) appears to carry an Smith & Wesson Model 1917 as his sidearm. He clearly favors his rifle and his shotgun, however, only using his sidearm twice.
One of Park Chang-yi's henchmen briefly fires a British Lanchester Mk. I* submachine gun during the fight at the Ghost Market. Park Chang-yi himself later uses one as well.
The Bad uses a Mauser M1908 to try to snipe the Weird. The vast majority of the henchmen in the film are either armed with Mausers, Mosin Nagant rifles, or Arisaka rifles. A Mauser 1908 with a scope later shows up.
Park Do-won's primary weapon is an anachronistic Marlin Model 1894C lever action rifle standing in for the historically plausible Marlin Model 1894. He uses it even when a pistol would make more sense. He also spin-cocks it several times during the chase in the end.
Error creating thumbnail: File missingFor a brief moment, when the horses were spooked by the Japanese shelling, the rifles slung on the mounted bandits switched from Mausers to rubber rifles, possibly K98Ks. The next shot, they were switched back.Error creating thumbnail: File missingAs the gunfight in the Ghost Market comes to a close, one of the Weird's P38's misfires, setting the top of the pistol ablaze.
