The following weapons were used in the film Westworld (1973):
Single Action Army Artillery
The Artillery model of the Single Action Army is the main revolver used in the film. It's seen in the hands of Peter Martin (Richard Benjamin), John Blane (James Brolin) and the Banker (Dick Van Patten). All of the firearms in Westworld are described as having high-tech safety devices that prevent them from being fired when aimed at anything with a high enough body temperature (i.e. guests at Westworld) while still allowing them to be fired at the androids populating the park. Prop-wise, this safety is visible on the revolvers as a metal cylinder attached to the frame just below the barrel.
Single Action Army Cavalry
The Gunslinger (Yul Brynner) is seen using the Cavalry model of the Single Action Army revolver.
Colt Model 1878
A small number of Colt Model 1878 shotguns (most with shorter coach gun length barrels) are seen around Westworld.
Winchester Model 1873
The Gunslinger is also seen using a Winchester Model 1873 when hunting for Peter Martin. Several other 1873 rifles can be seen inside the sheriff's office.
