There is something strange with the revolvers on Bmr-007.jpg. The one on top has the frame different from SAA (its angular shape makes me thing about Smith&Wessons), the barrel placed too high and the grip nearly vertical. The one on bottom seems to lack the front sight, and its frame also somewhat looks different from SAA. Maybe these are some other revolvers, fitted with fake side mounted ejector rods, to make them look like SAA? Or am I just imagining things?--[[User:Greg-Z|Greg-Z]] ([[User talk:Greg-Z|talk]]) 05:33, 24 April 2019 (EDT) | There is something strange with the revolvers on Bmr-007.jpg.

:The first is obviously one of these copies of the [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]]. The second is very strange, as it looks like an open-top. Perhaps this is an earlier Colt revolver (such as M1851 with cartridge conversion) with a remade frame to look like as a SAA. --[[User:Slon95|Slon95]] ([[User talk:Slon95|talk]]) 10:57, 24 April 2019 (EDT) | :The first is obviously one of these copies of the [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]].

== The Browning 1917 == | |||
The Browning 1917s used in the film are all acetylene-firing mock-ups. A good example of this is when Canales uses "Adelita" against King and his men. The assistant gunners have that belt right on top of the feed slot cover rather than in the feed slot, and they're feeding it much faster than the gun is firing. There's a shot from behind the crew that ''clearly'' shows that no rounds are being fed into the gun. (It's very quick, so you might have to time the pause in order to see it, or if you are viewing it on Youtube, slow the playback speed.) | |||

Unidentified rifle
How about 1893 Spanish Mausers? There are also two Browning M1917 machine guns in the arsenal and another Maxim gun.--HighPhigh (talk) 03:10, 24 April 2019 (EDT)
- A small cannon, seen at the left on Bmr-015.jpg, is possibly a Spanish Schneider 70mm M1908 mountain gun. --Greg-Z (talk) 03:15, 24 April 2019 (EDT)
- A shotgun on first screenshot is hammerless, so it's no way a Colt 1878. On second screenshot two men have shotguns with exposed hammers, and two more - hammerless shotguns.
- And one thing that I'm not sure but still - Winchesters seem to be Model 92 rather than Model 94 (maybe I'm wrong but these rifles even make me think about Spanish Garate El Tigre as they have rifle slings on swivels that is uncommon for genuine Winchesters).

Revolvers
There is something strange with the revolvers on Bmr-007.jpg. The one on top has the frame different from SAA (its angular shape makes me thing about Smith&Wessons), the barrel placed too high and the grip nearly vertical. The one on bottom seems to lack the front sight, and its frame also somewhat looks different from SAA. Maybe these are some other revolvers, fitted with fake side mounted ejector rods, to make them look like SAA? Or am I just imagining things?--Greg-Z (talk) 05:33, 24 April 2019 (EDT)

The Browning 1917
The Browning 1917s used in the film are all acetylene-firing mock-ups. A good example of this is when Canales uses "Adelita" against King and his men. The assistant gunners have that belt right on top of the feed slot cover rather than in the feed slot, and they're feeding it much faster than the gun is firing. There's a shot from behind the crew that clearly shows that no rounds are being fed into the gun. (It's very quick, so you might have to time the pause in order to see it, or if you are viewing it on Youtube, slow the playback speed.)
