Nice, but where's the trigger? This article or section is incomplete. You can help IMFDB by expanding it. |
The weapons seen in this movie are:
Webley MkVI
Used by British Officers. Like the earlier film, Zulu, the Webley mark IV stands in for the earlier Webley and Adams models which were either standard issue or privately purchased.
Webley Pryse
Colonel Pulleine (Denholm Elliot) uses a Webley Pryse before he is killed. This weapon was commonly privately purchased by officers during this period. Mr Fannin (Don Leonard), the Boer merchant who is chased by Zulu warriors, also appears to have this model pistol.
Martini-Henry
Used by (Peter O'Toole), (Burt Lancaster) and all British Troops. Though, inaccurately, most of the troops at the battle seem to use a shortened carbine version, which looks odd with the long bayonets fixed to them.
Hale Rocket
Used by British Troops at the movies climax.
