Revision as of 18:13, 2 September 2010
The following guns were used in the movie Silverado
The gun used mostly by just about everyone in the film is the Single Action Army revolver in the various barrel lengths and calibers. Many look to be in far too good condition to be the guns of Frontiersman and have obviously newer color case hardening as evident by the fact it isn't worn in the slightest. Back during that day, they used Cyanide to color case harden, unaware how unsafe it was to use. Today, more conventional and longer lasting methods are used. It is likely these guns were supplied by Aldo Uberti Inc., a major 19th century firearms company today. Due to the extreme frequency of these guns' appearances in the film, there are a lot of screenshots for them.
When Pedan (Kevin Kline) tries to buy a gun in the gun store, several Single Action Armies are seen in the glass case, but one of the guns is a Remington 1875.
"Slick" Calvin Stanhope (Jeff Goldblum) keeps a Remington 1866 Derringer hidden in his sleeve and does a neat trick to flip the gun out, instantly readying it for use.
When Paden (Kevin Kline) runs into the gunshop to buy a gun to kill the man who stole his horse, his lack of money leaves him with a worn-out Webley No.5 revolver. The gun has an Adams patent ejector instead of the standard fixed rod, but the gun is so beat-up, the cylinder falls off the rod when it is pulled out.
Winchester 1866 "Yellow Boy" (mocked up as Henry 1860)
Malachi "Mal" Johnson (Danny Glover) uses a Winchester 1866 "Yellow Boy" rifle mocked up like a Henry 1860 by removing the fore-end. The dead give aways are the loading gate on the reciever and the lack of a magazine tube slit and spring follower under the magazine tube. It is rather strange that he would use this fake Henry when his father uses an actual Henry rifle in the movie.
It's believed that this was done so Danny Glover didn't have to deal with the spring guide handle sliding into and pinching his finger while firing multiple rounds, multiple times during filming.
Ezra Johnson (Joe Seneca), Mal's father, uses a Henry 1860 rifle with an engraved reciever. When murdered by some of Cobb's thugs, the gun is used by one of them until that man is killed by Emmet (Scott Glenn). Emmet then uses the gun when preparing for a fight, shooting the prickers off a cactus plant. The rifle is then given to Mal and he uses both the Henry and his fake Henry (made from a Winchester 1866 rifle) during the gunfight at the ranch.
Both the Rifle and Saddle Ring Carbine versions of the Winchester 1873 rifle are seen used by several characters in the film, most notabley Emmet (Scott Glenn) and Pedan (Kevin Kline), who both keep the rifles as saddle guns.
A Colt Model 1878 is seen used by several extras in the film.
