Plot
- The point of a plot summary is to SUMMARIZE the film, not tell the whole story. Now that I know how it ends, I guess I don't need to watch it... - Gunmaster45
Sorry for ruining the end of the movie for you, Gunmaster 45. I want to apologize to you and anyone else that this caused a problem. I know that that stinks. I'm fairly new to the site, so I don't really know how things run around here. Sorry! I haven't watched this movie in a long time, so I got confused on a lot of the guns when I tried to remember. But fortunately, I have just rewatched it and discovered that Gunmaster 45 has corrected me on almost everything! Sorry again about ruining the movie, it won't happen again by me. It's still a pretty good movie, and worth watching--User: Colt Revolver Fan.
Smith and Wesson Schofield
Rafe Covington's (Tom Selleck) main sidearm is a Smith and Wesson Schofield, which he mainly uses in a quickdraw holster. He mostly carries this weapon in the first half of the film, but uses it along with his 1860 Army in the end gunbattle.
Colt SAA
Used by many characters throughout the movie. Rock and Gill keep one in quickdraw holsters. Dorn keeps one in a shoulder holster as a backup to his Remington. In the end gunbattle, Dorn wields his Colt and his Remington akimbo style. Barkow also keeps one concealed in a shoulder holster, which he uses in the end gunbattle. Snake keeps an ivory handled Colt SAA in a crossdraw holster.
Colt 1872 Open Top Revolver .44 Caliber Conversion
Covington (Tom Selleck) uses a converted Colt 1872 Open Top Revolver .44 Caliber Conversion for the second half of the movie in a crossdraw holster, and uses it in the end gunbattle as well. This is according to the May 2002 issue of the NRA's publication American Rifleman. It was built from parts for Tom Selleck by Ken Howell of R&D Gun Shop.
Remington 1875
Bo Dorn (Brad Johnson), the bounty hunter, uses a Remington 1875 as his main sidearm. He wields the Remington and his Colt akimbo style in the end gunbattle.
Winchester 1873
In the end gunbattle, Rock and several civilians use Winchester 1873s to battle the bad guys. Some of the bad guys use some as well.
Winchester 1866 'Yellow Boy'
The gunstore owner uses a Winchester Yellow Boy in the end gunbattle, as does Rock, who empties it into one of Barkow's men. In the gunbattle, Rock empties a Winchester 1973 into a bad guy. The gun shop owner attempts to bring some Winchesters (one of them a Yellow Boy) over to the good guys at the end gun battle before being shot in the leg by Barlow.
Winchester 1876 Centennial
Charles Rodney orders an 1876 Musket (full-stock configuration) but dies before it reaches him. Covington picks it up instead. After Snake threatens to kill him, Covington shoots him with the 1876 (when Snake is hit he is unrealisticly launched off his feet). At the end gun battle, Covington uses the 1876 in the first part of the gunbattle, put then sets it down and uses his handguns to face Dorn. Anne finds the 1876 and uses it to shoot and kill Barkow moments before Barkow can kill Covington.
Covington refers to the 1876 as "the new .45-60 Centennial rifle", to which the gunstore owner replies, "Yep, Winchester's first big bore rifle".
Remington-Keene Repeating Rifle
Dorn uses a bolt-action sniper rifle to shoot and kill J.T. It's a Remington-Keene Frontier Bolt Action Rifle in 45-70.Remington manufactured the rifle from 1879 - 1888. Also according to the May 2002 issue of American Rifleman the Remington-Keene used by Brad Johnson was overhauled by Ken Howell of R&D Gun Shop.--Jcordell 02:14, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
Evans Repeating Rifle
The 28 shot Evans Rifle is used by Joe Gill (Wilford Brimley). When asked why he dosen't get rid of it he states "Well, it holds twenty-eight rounds and I'm not a very good shot". He adds a scope to it for part of the end gunbattle, but still isn't a very good shot with it. In the middle of the gunbattle, the rifle jams and Gill is forced to use his SAA and a Winchester 1873. - The scoped rifle used by Gill is actually a Sharpes big bore hunting rifle that Rafe takes from the ship's captain.
