The following guns were used in Wyatt Earp
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Wyatt Earp (1994)
Single Action Army Wyatt Earp (Kevin Costner ) is seen multiple times throughout the film using Single Action Army revolvers. Mid-way through the film, he is seen to have selected a Cavalry with an 7 1/2" barrel as his right hand gun and an Artillery with a 5 1/2" barrel as his left hand gun. It should be noted that rumors of Earp's original Buntline being used in the film seem to be erroneous, as Earp's buntline was a 12" barrel model, while the film only exhibits 7 1/2" length barreled SAAs, it could be that his other pistols were used rather than his original Buntline. Multiple other characters are also seen using SAAs throughout the film.

Colt Sheriff's Model Single Action Army (3.5" barrel) John "Doc" Holliday (Dennis Quaid ) uses a Colt Sheriff's Model SAA revolver with a 3.5" barrel and nickel finish as his weapon of choice and uses it several times in the film, including the infamous Gunfight at the O.K. Corral. Historians have proven that during the gunfight, Doc Holliday was actualy used a 7.5" Cavalry SAA, not a Colt Sheriff's Model. He was believed to have carried a Cavalry SAA right up until he died in the sanitarium at age 36.

Colt 1851 Navy (w/ Richards-Mason conversion) A man named Ed Ross (Martin Kove ) tried to draw his Colt 1851 Navy revolver with a Richards-Mason Cartridge Conversion on Wyatt after hearing a drunk claim Wyatt was looking for a fight. Instead of drawing his Starr revolver, Wyatt grabs a Pool ball and throws it at the man's throat. He then takes the gun for himself and practices drawing it during the Fourth of July fireworks show. Based on Wyatt's age and the time, this gun is likely an anachronism. -Close call, he was born in 1848 or so I believe so while it could go either way, it is probably an anachronism. (Wyatt Earp was born in 1848 and the patent for the first Richards-Mason conversion was in 1871 with a second improved patent in 1872. So Wyatt would have been about 24 years old when the first Richards-Mason conversion Patent was awarded.)
