The following weapons were used in Season 2 of the television series Hell on Wheels:


Handguns

Colt 1860 Army

Cullen Bohannon (Anson Mount) continues to use a Colt 1860 Army as his primary sidearm in "Viva La Mexico" (S2E01) as he did for much of the first season. However, after he is captured, and subsequently released by the US Army, he switches to a Remington 1858 New Army for the remainder of the season. Some of the former Confederate soldiers-turned-train-robbers also use the Colt 1860 Army, including Hawkins (Ryan Robbins). US Cavalry soldiers also use the Colt 1860 Army revolver during the season. Gregory Toole (Duncan Ollerenshaw) also uses a one in "Blood Moon" (S2E09). The 1860 was the most common handgun in the United States at the time, most had a brass trigger guard (see photo), they were not originally manufactured with a brass frame.

Sharps 1874

Cullen Bohannon uses a Sharps 1874 rifle fitted with a Malcolm-style scope in "Scabs" (S2E04) to shoot a railroad worker who's being tortured by the Sioux. The rifle is a bit of anachronism, since the season takes place in 1866, and the Sharps rifle was available after 1874.
