Revision as of 19:05, 13 September 2008
The following guns were used in the film The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly.
Blondie (Clint Eastwood) carries a Colt 1851 Navy revolver with a Richards-Mason cartridge conversion kit (which is anachronistic for the time) throughout the film, his being outfitted with wooden grips inlaid with silver rattlesnakes, of which all his revolvers where fitted with in the Leone trilogy. It is based off the same grips used by Clint as Rowdy Yates in "Rawhide". Tuco (Eli Wallach) also carries a Cartridge converted Navy, his being fitted with a lanyard loop, which instead of a holster, is stuck in his pocket (because Eli Wallach had trouble holstering a revolver without looking at the holster.) Angel Eyes (Lee Van Cleef) also used a Navy Cartridge to murder a sickley old man towards the beginning of the film, firing it through his pillow. He keeps this Navy when serving in the Union, but carries a Remington 1858 for his own use. Throughout the film, it becomes obvious that if they have a cartridge revolver, they are going to fire it in the scene. In any other scene, the revolvers changes to an unloaded Percussion models (with the exception of Blondie's).
This side-by-side shows how Tuco's revolver switchs from a cartridge revolver to a precussion revolver in the scene. A goof also worth noting is how his revolver is capable of firing under water, while he is in the bath tub.
Seen used by Tuco (Eli Wallach) when firing the gun is not required or he must point the gun at a fellow actor.
Remington 1858 "New Army"
Angel Eyes/Sentenza (Lee Van Cleef) carries a Remington 1858 "New Army" as his personal sidearm. When not carrying his 1858, he is carrying his Union issued Colt Navy percussion. He is never seen firing the Remington because it is a percussion revolver only with no cartridge conversion to fire blanks. It is a somewhat notable goof that he keeps a cartridge belt depsite using a percussion revolver.
Winchester 1866 "Yellow Boy" lever-action rifle (with ladder-elevated sights)
Used by Blondie when shooting ropes off of the necks of Tuco and the other bandit. (The use of this gun, first produced in 1866, is anachronistic as the film takes place in 1862. Then again, it is tried to look like a Henry Rifle)
Gatling Gun
Seen during Civil War battle scenes (with drum magazines).
