Pharaoh's Army is a 1995 Western movie directed, written and produced by Robby Henson, and starring Chris Cooper, Patricia Clarkson and Kris Kristofferson. During the American Civil War, a small unit of Union troops under the command of Captain John Hull Abston (Cooper) is sent to gather supplies from Kentucky farmers who support Confederacy. The soldiers arrive at the homestead of Sarah Anders (Clarkson) who lives with her teenage son while her husband is a Confederate soldier.
The following weapons were used in the film Pharaoh's Army:
Captain John Hull Abston (Chris Cooper) and his four men, Corp. Neely (Frank Clem) and Pvts. Chicago (Robert Joy), Rodie (Richard Tyson) and Newt (Huckleberry Fox), carry Remington 1858 New Army revolvers. Capt. Abston and Chicago have blued revolvers, while three other men have revolvers with brass frames.
Rodie and Neely carry Springfield 1863 rifled muskets. A Springfield 1863 is also one of the guns of a sniper. As the movie is set in 1862, these guns are slightly anachronistic.
