Time period?
Why are there slaves in the WEST? The topography in the beginning of the trailer looks like the western states. I assume that all the guns are cap & Ball guns. I noticed that James Remar's shotgun is a percussion cap double barreled (The ram road is visible), not a cartridge gun, and Dr Schulz's gun when he takes down the slavers looks to be a Remington 1858. If Django's wife is a slave, then this cannot take place AFTER the end of the Civil War. Slavery was abolished in 1865. Most western guns appear between 1866-1889. Just musing. MoviePropMaster2008
- Before we get too much into the details, this is the same guy that had Adolf Hitler getting gunned down in a French movie theater in 1944. So, yeah... --Funkychinaman 14:42, 8 June 2012 (CDT)
- Didn't you know. That was Hitler's CLONE that kept on running the war after 1944 and died in the bunker in 1945 ;) The clone needed the extra time to build the massive military base on the moon........ MoviePropMaster2008
Hi I've edited the Film's description to show; in the Director's own words that the film is a "Southern" due to the location and content of the film. --Pistolpete 14:44, 8 June 2012 (CDT)
I assume the rifle Jamie Foxx uses is a Sharps Carbine rifle. and i think shultz has a henry rifle when he guns down riders in the forest.

- Wasn't the Spencer the only cartridge gun used in any sort of numbers during the actual war? :D MoviePropMaster2008
Anyone surprised at the lack of anachronistic weapons so far? This being a tarrantino film and a tribute to the spaghetti western films i expected a lot of post civil war era/1870's type guns popping up despite the time frame that this takes place in. Yet it seems most of the guns are time period appropriate. --Brasco 9 June 2012 (CDT)
When I watched the movie in theaters, at some point, one of Candieland's henchmen holds a Stainless 1858 New Army Sheriff to Django's head. Stainless firearms and 1858 remingtons with 5.5" barrels were never made during the 1800s... someone should point that out, I don't have the screens --Geckcgt (talk) 00:47, 1 January 2013 (EST)
At the beginning, it did state the year is 1858, 2 years before the Civil War. So far I've seen one 2 guns that are anachronistic, the Derringers and the Henry rifles Excalibur01 (talk) 01:15, 1 January 2013 (EST)
- It's possible the lever guns could actually be (or intended to be) volcanic lever guns which would be time period appropriate? http://www.winchestercollector.org/images/guns/volcanic.jpg --Brasco (talk) 08:07, 3 January 2013 (EST)
- That is possible from a story perspective. Though what the Derringers are standing in for, I have no idea Excalibur01 (talk) 08:19, 3 January 2013 (EST)
New trailer and new guns
Haven't had a chance to go through it yet. --bunni (talk) 18:08, 11 October 2012 (EDT)
- Think I saw a Colt 1851 Navy (dual wielded by Django with his Remington 1858) and a Remington 1858 Cattleman's Carbine (held by Django during the "Django" spelling, and I think might have been held earlier by someone on horseback). --commando552 (talk) 18:32, 11 October 2012 (EDT)
I believe you're right. New screenshots below. --bunni (talk) 20:39, 11 October 2012 (EDT)
