Revision as of 10:24, 11 June 2009
The following firearms were used in the film Tombstone:
double-barreled side-by-side shotgun
Billy Clanton (Thomas Haden Church) loads a side-by-side shotgun during the film's opening shootout with the Cowboys. Several others can be seen throughout the film, used primarily by other Cowboys such as Florentino Cruz (Paul Ben-Victor) in Tombstone and "Curly Bill" Brocius (Powers Boothe) during the Iron Springs shootout.
Winchester Model 1876
Several Cowboys use Winchester Model 1876 rifles during the film, including Johnny Ringo (Michael Biehn), Ike Clanton (Stephen Lang), and Breckenridge (Jason Priestley). Of Earp's men, Sherm McMasters (Michael Rooker) and "Texas Jack" Vermillion (Peter Sherayko) also carry Winchester '76 rifles. According to Sherayko, who was also the film's armorer, there were five Winchester Model 1876 rifles, chambered in .45-60, used in the film.
Single Action Army
As with many Westerns, the Single Action Army is the most commonly seen gun in the film, in the hands (or holsters) of nearly every major and minor character.
Single Action Army Quickdraw Model (4.75" barrel)
Johnny Ringo (Michael Biehn) carries a nickel Quickdraw model. Doc Holliday (Val Kilmer) also has a nickel Quickdraw, which he carries in addition to his Colt Lightning.
Single Action Army Artillery Model (5.5" barrel)
"Texas Jack" Vermillion (Peter Sherayko), Tombstone marshal Fred White (Harry Carey, Jr.), and McMasters (Michael Rooker) each carry Artillery Models with 5.5" barrels.
Single Action Army Cavalry Model (7.5" barrel)
Wyatt Earp (Kurt Russell) often carries a Cavalry Model in addition to his Buntline Special. Morgan Earp (Bill Paxton) has a Cavalry SAA as his primary weapon, as do "Curly Bill" Brocius (Powers Boothe) (who carries two) and his Cowboy gang. Cochise County Sheriff Johnny Behan (Jon Tenney) also has a Cavalry Model, which Ike Clanton borrows during the O.K. Corral gunfight. Johnny Tyler (Billy Bob Thornton) is disarmed of his by Wyatt when the latter replaces him as faro dealer, with Wyatt tossing the revolver to the bartender as a "keepsake" to keep above the bar. Billy Clanton (Thomas Haden Church) draws his during the O.K. Corral confrontation to begin the gunfight. Barnes (John Corbett) fires one into the air during the Henry V speech, causing the other Cowboys to fire theirs into the air at the speech's conclusion.
Colt Thunderer
Doc Holliday (Val Kilmer) keeps a nickel Colt Lightning Thunderer as a second sidearm, in addition to his Quickdraw SAA. It has birdshead grips.
Colt Lightning Shopkeeper
Kate (Joanna Pacula), Doc Holliday's girlfriend, carries a Colt Lightning Shopkeeper, drawing it on a saloon keeper when Doc stabs Ed Bailey.
Meteor 10 Gauge side-by-side shotgun
Johnny "Madcap" Tyler (Billy Bob Thornton), the faro dealer, approaches Wyatt with a Belgian-made Meteor 10-gauge side-by-side shotgun, which Virgil Earp (Sam Elliott) picks up and uses after Johnny puts it down. Morgan Earp (Bill Paxton) also is seen carrying it. Wyatt Earp (Kurt Russell) uses the sawed-off 10-gauge as his backup gun, hidden underneath the faro table at the Oriental, when Johnny Ringo harasses Doc Holliday (Val Kilmer). Doc himself carries one into the O.K. Corral during the confrontation, as the true Doc Holliday had in 1881.
Smith & Wesson Schofield
Virgil Earp (Sam Elliott) carries a Smith & Wesson Schofield with a nickel finish and pearl grips. Wyatt seems to carry this revolver in his holster when he is out riding his horse, giving it back to Virgil when talking to him about his choice to serve as City Marshal.
Remington 1875
When Behan is attempting to tell the Earps about Tombstone's positive image, "Turkey Creek" Jack Johnson (Buck Taylor) shoots a man in the background with a Remington 1875. Doc Holliday then sarcastically notes that the city is "very cosmopolitan".
Kentucky Flintlock Rifle
When Virgil, as Deputy Marshal, posts the notice banning the carry of guns within the town of Tombstone, a man can be seen holding what appears to be a Kentucky Flintlock Rifle in protest.
Colt Buntline Special (EMF/Uberti replica)
Wyatt Earp (Kurt Russell) carries a Colt Buntline Special that appears to have been crafted especially for him in 1878 due to his service in Dodge City. In actuality, the Buntline Special in the film is one of three EMF/Uberti replicas custom made for Tombstone.
Stevens 10-gauge side-by-side shotgun
Wyatt Earp (Kurt Russell) carries a three-triggered Stevens 10-gauge during his vendetta ride, notably using it to kill Frank Stilwell (Tomas Arana) at the train depot and "Curly Bill" Brocius at Iron Springs.
unidentified rifle
Sherm McMasters (Michael Rooker) arrives at the train depot with Doc Holliday, Texas Jack, Turkey Creek Johnson, and a rifle.
Whitney Kennedy rifle
"Texas Jack" Vermillion (Peter Sherayko) and "Turkey Creek" Jack Johnson (Buck Taylor) carry a .44-40 Whitney Kennedy rifle during the "Vendetta" ride.
Evans Rifle
Cowboy gang member Pony Deal (Forrie J. Smith) carries an Evans rifle, a 28-shot rifle manufactured in the 1870s by Evans of Maine.
