The Magnificent Seven (1960)
This film is the 1960 classic Western directed by John Sturges that was in turn based upon Akira Kurosawa's Seven Samurai. The film would inspire three sequels as well as a 1990's television series. Steve McQueen, Charles Bronson, and James Coburn would reunite for director Sturges in 1963's The Great Escape.
The following weapons were used in the film The Magnificent Seven:

Calvera (Eli Wallach) also uses one in the film, most notably to shoot a Farmer charging him and during the two shootouts. The Farmers are also seen taught to use Single Action Armys by Britt and Vinn. The man that challenges Britt to a duel shoots at Britts feet before being stuck by Britt's switchblade.
