Single Action Army

The Stranger (Clint Eastwood) carries a 7 1/2" Cavalry Single Action Army as his sidearm in the film. Many other characters carry 5 1/2" Artillery models, such as Stacey Bridges (Geoffrey Lewis) and his gang.

Winchester 1892 Saddle Ring Carbine

As Stranger (Clint Eastwood) trains the town to become a fighting militia to combat Stacey Bridges (Geoffrey Lewis) and his gang, he arms many of them with Winchester 1892 Saddle Ring Carbines. Stranger uses one himself to shoot off one of Bridges' men's ears while in the valley.

Gun Shop Pistol Case

In the gun shop, there are several pistols seen in the glass presentation case. Unfortunately they are seen at an angle which makes single identification difficult. Most of them appear to be cap-and-ball Colt revolvers such as Colt Dragoons and Colt 1851 Navy revolvers, and some appear to be Single Action Army revolvers.
