	Lt. John J. Dunbar ([[Kevin Costner]]) keeps a [[Colt 1851 Navy]] as his sidearm throughout the film. It is actually converted to fire metallic cartridges which is safer then using blanks on a percussion revolver. Also seen in the hands of some high ranking Union officers. After a conversation with Dunbar, Major Fambrough ([[Maury Chaykin]]) puts a Colt 1851 Navy revolver to his head. Also John Dunbar's revolver could be considered as slightly anachronistic due to its model type. This particular revolver was built in London, England due to its appearance being a steel frame with black iron backstrap and black steel barrel. As only around 2,000 units were produced at the London Colt factory, it is highly unlikely that John would come by one.		Lt. John J.

	The rifle can be determined due to two factors: the shape of the ramrod end, being cylindrical in shape with a square hole punched through it for a jag cleaning cloth, unlike a more bulbous plain ramrod of the Springfield 1861, and because of the shape of the barrel bands being a more rounded shape from being cast, much unlike the barrel bands of a Springfield 1861 which are produced by being pressed and stamped. When the sergeant loads his Enfield, it appears that he forgets to load a Minie ball before preparing to ram the powder down the barrel.
