The following guns were used in the film Young Guns:
William H. "Billy the Kid" Bonney (Emilio Estevez) starts carrying a Colt Lighting 1877 revolver with a 7 1/2" Cavalary barrel towards the start of the film, and uses it along with a Single Action Army in some scenes. After killing Sheriff Brady (Danny Kamin), he takes his 5" Artillery SAA and thus wields two Colt Lightning revolvers by the end of the film. The real Billy the Kid carried a Colt Thunderer 1877 revolver in .41 Long Colt, but this is an uncommon blank round so Uberti replicas of Lightnings in .38 Special were used for simplicity.
Single Action Army
All of the Regulators carry at least one Single Action Army as their sidearm. Billy the Kid (Emilio Estevez) is also seen using one for the start of the film.
Colt New Service
During the opening credits (shot in original 19th century style film), one of the Regualtors is seen firing two Colt New Service revolvers, even though these are highly anachronistic to the era.
