Rifles
Winchester Model 1892
The Winchester Model 1892 is the most common rifle in the film, used by both law enforcement and bandits. For some reason, it is never fired in the film (with the only exception being when the Mexican bandits arrive at Mayor Clyde's property). Sheriff Ben (George Martin ) uses a 14" barrel variant of the Winchester Model 1892 as his long gun of choice.
