Westworld is the HBO series adaptation of the 1973 science fiction film written and directed by Michael Crichton. Like the film, the series revolves around a futuristic theme park which has recreated the Old West using ultra realistic androids. This adaptation is being executive-produced by J.J. Abrams, Burn Notice producer Lisa Joy and Person of Interest creator Jonathan Nolan. The cast includes Evan Rachel Wood, Ed Harris, and Anthony Hopkins. The following weapons were used in the television series Westworld:
Handguns
Single Action Army
Many variations of the Single Action Army revolver are used in the series.

The Man in Black is seen reloading his revolver by breaking the weapon in half (the barrel and cylinder assembly from the frame), showing that the pistol has a cartridge cylinder similar to those produced by reproduction companies such as Uberti and Pietta (While this type of conversion wasn't existent in the Old West, this technically is not anachronistic as the series takes takes place in a futuristic theme park.) The Man in Black loads the revolver with what appear to be .38 Short Colt cartridges, as well as a long, brass shotgun shell (appears to be around a 20 gauge) in the underbarrel shotgun.

Also, interestingly enough, it appears that The Man in Black carries an entire second barrel/cylinder assembly in a holster mounted on his belt behind the holster for the full pistol.
