Single Action Army
Seen in the hands of Harmonica (Charles Bronson), Frank (Henry Fonda), and Cheyenne (Jason Robards), as well as many other characters are Single Action Army revolvers in various barrel lengths and finishes.
Winchester Model 1892 "Mare's Leg"
Stoney (Woody Strode) uses a sawed down Winchester Model 1892 rifle, nicknamed "Mare's Leg" as his weapon of choice. The gun has a trigger pin attached to the lever for rapid fire, meaning he uses it more as a quick draw gun than for accuracy.

Aside from Stoney's pistol version, several thugs and assassin's throughout the film are armed with Winchester 1892 Saddle Ring Carbines.
Double Barreled Black-Powder Shotgun
The father (Frank Wolff) is seen using a Double Barreled Percussion Shotgun to shoot quail with his son. It is noted as a black powder shotgun based on the ram rod positioned under the barrel.
