Gods and Generals (2003)

Springfield Model 1861

Union and Confederate troops carry Springfield Model 1861 and 1864 muskets, though the 1864s are anachronistic as the movie is set in 1860-1863. There are several epic battle scenes showing men reloading and firing their Springfields at one another. A Springfield is used to fatally wound Stonewall Jackson (Stephen Lang) by friendly fire.

Two of the Confederate Irish volunteers are seen firing Colt 1851s at the Union Irish volunteers at Fredrickburg. Several Confederate officers carry Colt 1851s, and keep them drawn most notably when Stonewall Jackson (Stephen Lang) is accidently shot by his own men.
