This is actually not strictly a historical anachronism as a previous user stated. The genuine Winchester Model 1866 "Yellow Boy" repeaters were chambered in .44 Henry rim fire. Only modern reproductions leave the factory chambered in .45 Long Colt (the caliber that the Colt Single Action Army was most commonly chambered for in the Old West) and .44-40 Winchester Center Fire (the Winchester Model 1873 was the first rifle chambered for this caliber, and it was the second most common chambering for Colt Single Action Army (which was chambered in a variety of rifle cartridges so the user, if they owned a rifle of the same caliber, would only have to by one type of shell). However, there actually were Colt Single Action Army Revolvers that left the factory chambered in .44 Henry so that owners of the Henry and Winchester "Yellow Boy" rifles could use the same technique that owners of the Winchester '73 and Colt .44-40s could do. The .44 Henry cartridge was also still very popular down in Mexico for a long time, so it is a possibility that this Colt is supposed to be chambered in that caliber. It is also possible (and actually quite simple) to convert a Winchester Model 1866 to fire .44-40 WCF cartridges, though it is less likely that Cody has done this, as .44 Henry rimfire was still readily available in 1891, and was still commercially made until the 1930s, and she would have seen no point in taking the time (or wasting the money) to do this or have a gunsmith do it as it was not a necessary at the time to do so.]] |

Revision as of 05:28, 11 August 2013
Bad Girls is a 1994 Western that involves four prostitutes from Colorado (Madeleine Stowe, Mary Stuart Masterson, Andie MacDowell, and Drew Barrymore) who are forced to go on the run down to Texas in 1891 and cross paths with a gang of ruthless bank and train robbers led by Kid Jarrett (James Russo) and his father Frank (Robert Loggia).
The following firearms were used in the film Bad Girls:
Colt Model 1862 Police (Richards-Mason Conversion)
Cody Zamora (Madeleine Stowe) uses a cartridge-converted Colt 1862 Police with pearl grips as her main sidearm throughout the film.
Colonel Clayborne (Will MacMillan) carries a Colt 1851 Navy in the Colorado whorehouse during the opening scene, even though Anita warns him "No sidearms upstairs".
**It's hard to tell from this picture, but it looks more like an 1860 model**
Single Action Army
Most of the characters carry variants of the Single Action Army.
Single Action Army Quickdraw Model (4.75" barrel)
Kid Jarrett (James Russo) primarily carries two Quickdraw SAA revolvers. Eileen Spenser (Andie MacDowell), Anita Crown (Mary Stuart Masterson), and Frank Jarrett (Robert Loggia) also carry Quickdraws. Lilly Laronette (Drew Barrymore) carries two nickel Quickdraw Single Action Army revolvers.
Single Action Army Artillery Model (5.5" barrel)
The Pinkerton detectives Graves (Jim Beaver) and O'Brady (Nick Chinlund) carry Artillery SAA revolvers. Kid Jarrett (James Russo) and Ned (Neil Summers), one of his gang, also carry Artillery SAAs. Some are reproductions with 5" barrels rather than the full 5.5" barrel of genuine Artillery models.
Single Action Army Cavalry Model (7.5" barrel)
Gold prospector Joshua McCoy (Dermot Mulroney) carries a Cavalry Single Action Army with a 7.5" barrel.
Winchester Model 1866
Many characters throughout the film use Winchester 1866 "Yellow Boy" rifles. The Agua Dulce, Texas city marshal (Nik Hagler) carries one. Later, Cody (Madeleine Stowe), Anita (Mary Stuart Masterson), and Eileen (Andie MacDowell) each use them after taking the shipment hijacked by Kid Jarrett's gang.
Remington Model 1858
The deputy city marshal of Agua Dulce, Earl (Cooper Huckabee), carries a Remington 1858 New Army revolver.
double barreled shotgun
Rico (Richard Reyes) carries a Double Barreled Shotgun with exposed hammers when "greeting" Cody at the Jarrett gang's hideout.
Winchester Model 1873
Eileen Spenser (Andie MacDowell) and several of the Jarrett Gang, including Ned (Neil Summers), use Winchester Model 1873 rifles.
Remington 1875
One of the U.S. Army soldiers robbed by the Jarrett gang has a Remington 1875 taken from him and placed with the other soldiers' weapons.
Gatling Gun
The Jarrett gang steals a Gatling Gun from the U.S. Army train. After Cody's gang steals it from them, they trade it back for McCoy. Both Cody (Madeleine Stowe) and one of Jarrett's gang fire the Gatling during the shootout. The film treats the Gatling Gun as though it were a newly developed weapon, even though in 1891 (the film's setting) it had been patented for almost thirty years.
Colt Single Action Army Bisley
One of the Jarrett Gang aims and fires a Colt Bisley SAA with a 7.5" barrel during the final shootout.
