The Ballad of Cable Hogue is a 1970 American drama comedy Western film directed by Sam Peckinpah and starring Jason Robards, Stella Stevens, and David Warner.
In 1905, four days after being abandoned in the Arizona desert by his partners, prospector Cable Hogue miraculously finds a water reserve that turns out to be the only source of water between two towns, seeing the possibility of making a good deal but also of getting revenge on his old partners.
Unlike many of his other Westerns, Sam Peckinpah decided to make a less violent and more sentimental vision of the American western, which resulted in one of his best and most iconic films.
The following weapons were used in the film The Ballad of Cable Hogue:
Revolvers
Colt Single Action Army
The "first customer" (presumably Darwin Lamb) uses a Colt Single Action Army to try to attack Cable Hogue for not wanting to pay 50 cents. SAA revolvers are also used by Taggart (L.Q. Jones) and Bowen (Strother Martin), Cable's former partners who abandoned him in the desert at the beginning of the film.
Rifles
Winchester Model 1892
Throughout the film, the most used weapon is the Winchester Model 1892, used mainly by Cable Hogue (Jason Robards) to defend his property and business.
Winchester Model 1892 Saddle Ring Carbine
Taggart (L.Q. Jones) holds a Winchester Model 1892 carbine when he and Bowen stop searching for a water tank with Cable Hogue. This is the only appearance of the "Saddle Ring Carbine" variant in the entire film.
Shotguns
J. Stevens and Company Side by Side Shotgun
When Taggart (L.Q. Jones) and Bowen (Strother Martin) arrive by stagecoach in Cable Springs, the shotgun messenger is holding a J. Stevens and Company Side by Side Shotgun which he never fires or uses.
