==Colt 1860 Army==
==Colt 1861 Navy==


A revolver similar to the [[Colt 1860 Army]] model appears in cutscenes and forms the "Imported Revolver" class of pistols. It has a [[Colt Walker]]'s square shape triggerguard and cartridge-converted cylinder. Bizarrely, the weapon also still appears to have the loading lever of the percussion cap model, though it is encased in a surround which would render it useless. It also has a S&W-like hinge, which means that it should work as a top break.

Ryū ga Gotoku Ishin! (龍が如く 維新!, lit. "Like a Dragon Restoration!") is an historical spin-off of the main Yakuza series. It follows character Sakamoto Ryoma through the Bakumatsu period of Edo period. While mostly focused on sword fighting, firearms do appear which is accurate to the era.
The following weapons appear in the video game Ryu ga Gotoku Ishin!:


Handguns

Colt 1861 Navy

A revolver similar to the Colt 1861 Navy model appears in cutscenes and forms the "Imported Revolver" class of pistols. It has a Colt Walker's square shape triggerguard (which is mounted backwards) and cartridge-converted cylinder. Bizarrely, the weapon also still appears to have the loading lever of the percussion cap model, though it is encased in a surround which would render it useless. It also has a S&W-like hinge, which means that it should work as a top break.

It also has a grips from Smith & Wesson Model 1 1/2 and trigger group from Colt Dragoon (which triggerguard is mounted backwards, as on the "Imported Revovler"). This forms the basis of the "Model 2" class of pistols, the ultimate version of which is called the Golden Gun and appropriately has a golden finish.

Large Cannon

Okita Souji can be seen firing a large cannon to blast open a gate in the opening video. For some reason, it appears to have spade grips like a Browning M2 machine gun.

Okita Souji lives up to his reputation by blowing the gate to smithereens with the cannon.

Wheeled Cannon

A smaller cannon on a wheel mount is used by Dr Shinbei during his training, in what is essentially a re-hashing of the baseball mini-game on other Yakuza titles. It has a store for cannonballs on the side, although it is muzzle loaded.
