The Grand Duel: Difference between revisions
Adam Saxon ([[Klaus Grünberg]]) uses an [[MG 42]] during the ambush on Wermeer's followers heading to the silver mine. This is a anachronism, since the film is set in the Wild West and the [[MG 42]] was introduced during World War II, two very separate historical periods. A similar error is seen in the film ''[[Duck, You Sucker!]]''.

In an unspecified year in the Old West, the film follows a grizzled sheriff who seeks justice for a young gunslinger on the run from the law after being falsely accused of murder.
This film is considered "Lee Van Cleef's last great western".
The following weapons were used in the film The Grand Duel:
The Colt Single Action Army appears as the most common revolver in the film, used by several characters. Multiple variants are used, of which stands out a golden finish variant used by David Saxon (Horst Frank).
A 12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun appears in the Silver Bells station. Vermeer tries to arm himself with it, but Clayton (Lee Van Cleef) prevents him from doing so. No one gets a chance to use it, as it is revealed that it is not actually loaded.
Machine Guns
MG 42
Adam Saxon (Klaus Grünberg) uses an MG 42 during the ambush on Wermeer's followers heading to the silver mine. This is a anachronism, since the film is set in the Wild West and the MG 42 was introduced during World War II, two very separate historical periods. A similar error is seen in the film Duck, You Sucker!.
