Nice, but where's the trigger? This article or section is incomplete. You can help IMFDB by expanding it. |
The following weapons were used in the film The Searchers:
Colt Single Action Army
Several characters use Colt Single Action Army revolvers as their sidearms in the film including Ethan Edwards (John Wayne) and Martin Pawley (Jeffrey Hunter) which is anachronistic as the movie is set three years after the American Civil War (1861-1865) and the Colt SAA did not appear until 1873.
Winchester 1892
Ethan Edwards (John Wayne) rifle of choice is a Winchester Model 1892, which is anachronistic to the film as the Winchester 1892 appeared in 1892.
Winchester 1873
Another weapon anachronistic to the movie is the Winchester 1873, which is used by lawmen, the Comanches and Martin Pawley (Jeffrey Hunter). Scar is seen holding one as he approaches Pawley, but is gunned down by Pawley before he can use it.
Springfield 1861 muskets
While some Comanches have Winchesters, others have Springfield muskets.
