Rango (2011)

Rango is a 2011 CG animated film directed by Gore Verbinski and centers around a pet chameleon (voiced by Johnny Depp) who decides to pass himself off as a tough drifter in order to become the sheriff of a desert town. The film would go on to receive the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature. The film is included in the IMFDb because the firearms seen in the film have been depicted in detail and are readily identifiable.



The following weapons were used in the film Rango:



Single Action Army

Rango (voiced by Johnny Depp) and many of the townsfolk carry Colt Peacemaker revolvers, which is erroneously depicted as having a swing-out cylinder.

Henry 1860

Buford's rifle switches to a Henry 1860 rifle during the posse's confrontation with the moles. It was, most likely, done intentionally to homage live action western movies, which often have such continuity mistakes (as CGI animating processes use models and it's high unlikely that a model of Henry 1860 was done, scrapped and accidentally used).

Gatling Gun

The mole clan is seen riding bats with hand-cranked belt-fed Gatling Guns attached to their saddles. Rattlesnake Jake (voiced by Bill Nighy) is shown using a Gatling Gun attached to his tail in place of a rattle. How this works exactly is never addressed.
