Sukiyaki Western Django

Sukiyaki Western Django (2007)

Sukiyaki Western Django is a 2007 surreal pseudo-Western directed by acclaimed Japanese director Takashi Miike, maker of such films as Ichi the Killer, Dead or Alive, and the original version of One Missed Call. Sukiyaki Western Django is an ultra-violent and bizarre tale of warring factions in a "western town", rife with gunslingers and warring clans. Technically a remake of Kurosawa's samurai classic Yojimbo, except with a weird mix of historical (and modern punk) Japanese styles and weapons and late 19th century American West designs and firearms.

The following weapons were used in the film Sukiyaki Western Django:

Colt Single Action Army

Colt Single Action Army used by most of the film's characters including Ringo (Quentin Tarantino), The Gunman (Hideaki Itô), and Minamoto no Yoshitsune (Yusuke Iseya).

Colt Single Action Army w/ 5.5" barrel known as the "Artillery" model. The most common of the SAA revolvers as it is just the right length. .45 Long Colt

Colt Single Action Army w/4.75" barrel "Quick Draw" model - .45 Long Colt.

Fictional Gatling gun

A 12 barreled rotary cannon, similar to Gatling Gun, used by Taira no Kiyomori (Kôichi Satô) and later by other characters, when he's killed.

Arisaka Type 38

The rifles held by some Minamoto no Yoshitsune's men appear to be anachronistic Arisaka Type 38 as a stand-in for the period-appropriate (1877) single-shot Mauser Gewehr 1871s.
