Hombre is the classic 1967 Western starring Paul Newman as John Russell, a white man raised by Apache Indians who now must try to assimilate back into the non-Indian culture. After selling away his inheritance and putting out some townsfolk, he finds himself riding out of town with the very same people. When the stagecoach is ambushed, the passengers must now depend on Russell to survive. The film was the sixth collaboration between Newman and director Martin Ritt (Hud) and was based on a novel by Elmore Leonard.
The following weapons were used in the film Hombre:
John Russell (Paul Newman) carries a Winchester Model 1873 rifle that has been modified with a shortened barrel and magazine as his primary weapon in the film.
In the final confrontation, Russell's Single Action Army appears to have been replaced in some shots with a double-action, modern Colt Police Positive revolver modified to resemble the SAA. This kind of prop was frequently used in Westerns (see the Police Positive below), when a Single Action Army was required to be discharged with the speed required by the script.
