| − | '''''Companeros''''' (original title ''Vamos a matar, compañeros'') is a 1970 Italian-Germanan-Spanish spaghetti western directed by [[Sergio Corbucci]] and starring [[Franco Nero]] and [[Tomas Milian]]. The story takes place during the Mexican Revolution. Swedish arms dealer Yodlaf Peterson ([[Franco Nero]]) sells weapons to guerilla leader Gen. Mongo ([[José Bódalo]]) but the money that Mongo needs for the deal are locked in an indestructible bank safe. The only man who knows the combination is Prof. Xantos ([[Fernando Rey]]) who is held in prison in American town of Yuma. Peterson volunteers to rescue Xantos and bring him to Mongo who orders one of his men, El Vasco ([[Tomas Milian]]), to escort Petersen. The events are even more complicated after the involvement of a group of Xantos' loyal followers ("Xantists"), lead by Lola ([[Iris Berben]]). Meanwhile Petersen's old companion, turned bitter enemy, searches for him.

| |
| − | During the encounter in train one of Xantists is armed with a revolver that appears to be a Spanish copy of [[Smith & Wesson .44 Double Action]]. A strange feature of this revolver is a side-mounted ejector rod, a senseless thing on a top-break revolver. Maybe it was added on the screen gun to make it look more "Western-style".
