Single Action Army Wyatt Earp (Kevin Costner ) is seen multiple times through out the film using Single Action Army revolvers. Mid-way through the film he is seen to have selected to keep a Buntline special with an 8" barrel as his right hand gun and an Artillery with a 5" barrel as his left hand gun. Apprently at some points in the film the actual Buntline used by Earp was taken out of the Wyatt Earp Museum and used by Costner for some closeup shots. Multiple other characters are also seen using SAAs throughout the film.
