Most widely-used and widely-seen gun in the movie, by almost all major characters, notably John Dillinger (Warren Oates), Pretty Boy Floyd (Steve Kanaly), Homer Van Meter (Harry Dean Stanton), and FBI agent Melvin Purvis (Ben Johnson). Purvis's 1911 is a silver finish, in contrast to the ones used by the bank robbers. (Like most movies depicting 1911s of this era, the firing models were probably a Star 9mm, to be more compatible with blanks).

The bank robbers use these in some of the film's major shootouts, best seen after the Mason City bank robbery and during the Little Bohemia shootout.

Winchester Model 1897
Another oft-seen gun, this pump-action shotgun is used during bank robberies and taken by Dillinger from a prison guard.

A farmer/American Legionnaire holds this gun to Van Meter's head.
unknown double-barrel shotgun
Several vigilantes use double-barreled shotguns to try an apprehend the gang. Homer Van Meter is shot and heavily wounded by a "goddamn farmer" with a shotgun.
