Talk:Wild Wild West
You missed one gun the "AUTO AND BURGLAR" it was also in the movie for about three frames
Looks like a modern 22 revolver. One of those belt buckle guns. New England arms? you mean north american arms and thats not it because those have cylinders but i agree wit GM but there are #4 versions which they probably used because they take a .22 short and the #4 model is alot cheaper than a real one -I agree, they look like Colt #4.
If you look closer at Will's pistol you can see that there are no slots for the percussion caps so i would suggest that it's a different model
Anachronism
The film takes place as the Transcontinental Railroad is being completed. This would date the events to 1869, meaning that the majority of the weapons in the film are anachronistic being from the 1870s and 1880s. -Anonymous
Yeah, I made this page back before I knew what anachronistic means Excalibur01 18:35, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
They probably used the weapons they did for convenience sake as strict period weapons would probably have limited their options alot more. -Anonymous
- Well this show borders on steam punk story. I mean the giant mecha spider saids it all Excalibur01 02:06, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
Not so much border on, as be a textbook example of steam punk. It would be one think if the anachronistic weapons were dressed up to look like guns ahead of their time, but as it stands it just looks like the film makers didn't know better or care. -Anonymous
