Colt Lightning 1877 William H. "Billy the Kid" Bonney (Emilio Estevez ) starts carrying a Colt Lighting 1877 revolver with a 7 1/2" Cavalary barrel towards the start of the film, and uses it along with a Single Action Army in some scenes. After killing Sheriff Brady (Danny Kamin ), he takes his 5" Artillery SAA and thus wields two Colt Lightning revolvers by the end of the film. The real Billy the Kid carried a Colt Thunderer 1877 revolver in .41 Long Colt, but this is an uncommon blank round so Uberti replicas of Lightnings in .38 Special were used for simplicity.
