Revision as of 02:20, 22 August 2020 by JaredChastain1(talk | contribs)(→Winchester 1964: There is no "model 1964 Winchester". They are special commemorative Model 1894s with brass finishes made in 1966, not 1964, to commemorate the 100 year anniversary of Winchester Repeating Arms Co. which was founded in 1866)
The Stranger (Clint Eastwood) carries a 7 1/2" Cavalry Single Action Army as his sidearm in the film. Many other characters carry 5 1/2" Artillery models, such as Stacey Bridges (Geoffrey Lewis) and his gang. Mordecai (Billy Curtis) buys himself a nickel plated Cavalry model once Stranger makes him the new Mayor of the town.
As Stranger (Clint Eastwood) trains the town to become a fighting militia to combat Stacey Bridges (Geoffrey Lewis) and his gang, he arms many of them with Winchester 1892 Saddle Ring Carbines. Stranger uses one himself to shoot off one of Bridges' men's ears while in the valley.
Two Winchester 1894 rifles are seen in the gunshop, but based on their brass finish it is assumed they are the commemorative 1966 models, which would have been relatively easy to acquire at the time.
In the gun shop, there are several pistols seen in the glass presentation case. Unfortunately they are seen at an angle which makes single identification difficult. Most of them appear to be cap-and-ball Colt revolvers such as Colt Dragoons and Colt 1851 Navy revolvers, and some appear to be Single Action Army revolvers.
