Enfield 1858

An Enfield 1858 is the rifle kept by Mary Bee Cuddy (Hilary Swank) in her coach. This rifle is anachronistic due to the fact that it was not produced until 4 years after the movie is set. The 1858 is easily identified from the 1853 by its 2 bands(instead of 3) and the longer barrel past the stock, with the bayonet lug on the side instead of the front sight doubling as the bayonet lug.
