Pharaoh's Army is a 1995 Western movie directed, written, and produced by Robby Henson, and starring Chris Cooper, Patricia Clarkson, and Kris Kristofferson. During the American Civil War, a small unit of Union troops under the command of Captain John Hull Abston (Cooper) is sent to gather supplies from Kentucky farmers who support the Confederacy. The soldiers arrive at the homestead of Sarah Anders (Clarkson,) who lives with her teenage son while her husband is a Confederate soldier.
The following weapons were used in the film Pharaoh's Army:
Revolvers
Remington 1858 New Army
Captain John Hull Abston (Chris Cooper) and his four men, Corp. Neely (Frank Clem) and Pvts. Chicago (Robert Joy), Rodie (Richard Tyson), and Newt (Huckleberry Fox), carry Remington 1858 New Army revolvers. Capt. Abston and Chicago have blued revolvers, while the three other men have revolvers with brass frames. It should be noted that no brass framed Remingtons were ever manufactured in the 19th century. The guns used in this film are modern, unauthentic creations of Italian replica manufacturers such as Pietta.
Colt 1860 Army
Newt is initially seen with a Colt 1860 Army, but when Sarah's son steals Newt's revolver, it switches to a Remington 1858.
Rifles and Muskets
Springfield 1863
Rodie and Neely carry Springfield 1863 rifled muskets. A Springfield 1863 is also one of the guns used by the sniper. As the movie is set in 1862, these guns are slightly anachronistic.
Flintlock Hunting Musket / Rifle
Sarah Anders (Patricia Clarkson) owns a flintlock long gun that looks like a kind of Jaeger Rifle. A similar rifle also used by the sniper.
Trivia
A photo in Sarah Anders' house shows her husband in Confederate uniform, holding a Colt 1851 Navy revolver.
