The first thing I noticed was the Dr. Pepper. I can't see a trigger on the revolver but maybe those old timee eye-tilian cowboys slip hammered their guns. It was a cheesey movie so why should the guns differ from everything else.
It's a single action revolver.There is a trigger, but
there isn't enough pull left to fire it and advance the cylinder.

Some did, some didn't. I think the most realistic gun handling was in L.A. Confidential. The weapons specialist on that one and several other movies was Mike Sudrow. I couldn't find a single gun "mistake" in the movie. My wife gets so tired of me pausing a movie to examine it and saying something like, "that's just impossible!"Didn't movies have technical advisors back then?
Glad you pointed that out. My wife didn't get it when I told her that it was the rare movie that depicted use of shotguns accurately/realistically.I think the most realistic gun handling was in L.A. Confidential.
