Single Action Army revolvers are carried by several characters in the film, most notabley Ben Wade (Russell Crowe), whose gun has custom grips with gold crosses, nicknamed "The Hand of God". The gun is said to be cursed as anyone who touches it other than Wade dies. Wade keeps the gun in a special holster designed by Will Ghormley to have the old time look mixed with the advantages of modern quickdraw holsters (see here for more information). Crowe was trained in the film by Thell Reed, a world reknowned quick draw shooter labeled "Fastest Gun Alive" by the Colt company, who has worked as a weapons trainer in many films.
Smith & Wesson Schofield Model 3
Charlie Prince (Ben Foster) carries two Smith & Wesson Schofield Model 3 revolvers in butts-forward holsters also built by Will Ghormley (see more here). Thell Reed extensively trained Foster in multiple quick draw and spinning techniques to turn him into the cold-blooded killer Charlie Prince.
The Mexican sharpshooter Campos (Rio Alexander) carries a Colt 1855 Revolving Rifle fitted with a full length telescopic sight and converted to fire metallic cartridges.
Colt 1878 Double Barrelled Shotgun (Sawed Off)
A Colt 1878 double barreled shotgun with the barrel sawed down to short length is carried by Byron McElroy (Peter Fonda) until his death and later by Dan Evans (Christian Bale).
Colt 1874 Gatling Gun
Mounted on the coach turret is a Colt 1874 Gatling Gun fitted with a 35 round magazine, which is fired by the two gunners before they are both killed. Another gunner climbs out and fires it before the coach is flipped. The gun used in the film was supplied by key armorer Thell Reed, who also trained the actors how to use it as the gun coach. A rubber prop gun was also used in the film for scenes when the weapon was at risk of being damaged.
