Blue Steel (1934)
Blue Steel is a 1934 Western serial starring John Wayne made for the Lone Star Company. The plot involves Wayne as a U.S. Marshal trying to track down bandits in California who are stealing provisions en route a local town.
The following firearms were used in the film Blue Steel:
Single Action Army
All characters in the film, including U.S. Marshal John Carruthers (John Wayne), Sheriff Jake Withers (George "Gabby" Hayes), Danti the Polka Dot Bandit (Yakima Canutt), and another henchman (Earl Dwire) all carry Single Action Army revolvers. According to Phil Spangenberger in a 2006 article for True West magazine, Wayne's 5 1/2"-barreled Single Action Army was likely the same .38-40 WCF model manufactured by Colt in 1928 that he carried in many of his earlier films across the 1930s.
