Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid is the classic 1969 Western that marked the first onscreen pairing of Paul Newman and Robert Redford, who portray the title characters. The film was directed by George Roy Hill, who would later reunite with the duo for the Academy Award-winning 1973 film The Sting. The cast included Katharine Ross, Jeff Corey, and Ted Cassidy. A prequel, Butch and Sundance: The Early Days was released in 1979.
The following weapons were used in the film Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid:
Revolvers
Colt Single Action Army
Butch Cassidy (Paul Newman) and the Sundance Kid (Robert Redford) each carry a Colt Single Action Army. The Bolivian bandits, including one played by Powers Boothe and police also carry SAAs.
Movie prop Colt Police Positive
When confronting the Bolivian bandits, Butch's Single Action Army appears to have been replaced in some shots with a double-action, modern Colt Police Positive revolver modified to resemble the SAA. This kind of prop was frequently used in Westerns (see the Police Positive below), when a Single Action Army was required to be discharged with the speed required by the script.
Rifles
Winchester Model 1873
A guard watching over Hole in the Wall carries a Winchester Model 1873. Some of the Bolivian soldiers in the film's climax carry them as well.
Winchester Model 1894
Some of the Bolivian soldiers in the film's climax carry Winchester Model 1894 rifles.
Winchester Model 1895
Some of the Bolivian soldiers in the film's climax carry Winchester Model 1895 rifles.
