Death Rides a Horse (original title Da uomo a uomo ("Man to man")) is a 1966 Italian Spaghetti Western movie directed by Giulio Petroni and starring Lee Van Cleef and John Phillip Law. Fifteen years ago Bill Meceita's (Law) family was massacred by a gang of outlaws. Bill who is now a skilled gunslinger suddenly finds a trail that leads him to the murderers. But old grizzled Ryan (Van Cleef) also hunts for the same men, and he plans to be the first.
The following weapons were used in the film Death Rides a Horse:
Single Action Army revolvers are seen in hands of numerous characters, including Ryan (Lee Van Cleef), Bill (John Phillip Law), Walcott (Luigi Pistilli) and his henchmen. The revolvers are mostly of Artillery model, but some Cavalry revolvers are also used. Like in many other European western movies, the revolvers are modern replicas, most likely Uberti.
When Ryan (Lee Van Cleef) enters Burt Cavanaugh's (Anthony Dawson) apartments, the latter tries to draw a Derringer from the table, but Ryan prevents it. Cavanaugh holds his derringer in another scene. Bartender (Bruno Corazzari) in casino is also seen with a derringer.
During the shootout in El Viento several Mexican peasants use rifles that appear to be percussion cap guns, very similar to Springfield 1863 but seemingly having shorter barrel. Possibly it's a modern replica that differs from the original gun.
