Disappearances is a 2006 Western film directed by Jay Craven and starring Kris Kristofferson based on the 1977 novel of the same name by Howard Frank Mosher. Described as a "Vermont Western" by the director, the film is set in 1932 in rural Kingdom County, Vermont during the Great Depression in the waning days of the Prohibition Era and follows the story of farmer and ex-whiskey smuggler Quebec Bill Bonhomme (Kris Kristofferson) who is forced back into his old trade in order to save his farm. Together with his teenage son Wild Bill (Charlie McDermott), Native American brother-in-law Henry Coville (Gary Farmer) and peculiar farm hand Rat Kinneson (William Sanderson), Quebec Bill embarks on a journey to smuggle hijacked whiskey across the Canadian border, incurring the wrath of a dangerous backwoods outlaw (Lothaire Bluteau) along the way.
The following guns were used in the film Disappearances:
Winchester Model 1897
A Winchester Model 1897 is used by Quebec Bill Bonhomme (Kris Kristofferson) throughout the film. His son, Wild Bill (Charlie McDermott) also uses it in a couple of scenes. It appears to be the riot gun variant.

Smith & Wesson Model 10
While never shown up close, Henry Coville (Gary Farmer) is shown loading what appears to be a Smith & Wesson Model 10 revolver in the background in one scene in preparation for a potential showdown with Carcajou and his men when Quebec Bill (Kris Kristofferson) tries to transport the hijacked cases of whiskey across Lake Memphremagog. He is never seen firing it.
Browning M2
A Browning M2 is mounted on Carcajou's (Lothaire Bluteau) ski boat and used while searching for Quebec Bill on Lake Memphremagog. The appearance of the Browning M2 in this film, which is set in 1932, is anachronistic.
