The Headless Horseman (original Russian title Всадник без головы; Vsadnik bez golovy, Spanish title El Jinete sin Cabeza) is 1973 Soviet-Cuban western, based on the famous novel by Thomas Mayne Reid.
The following weapons were used in the film The Headless Horseman:
Revolvers
Colt 1851 Navy revolvers are most common weapons in the movie. They are seen in hands of Maurice Gerald (Oleg Vidov), Cassius Calhoun (Aarne Üksküla), Miguel Diaz (Enrique Santiesteban), Henry Poindexter (Aleksandr Milokostyj), and numerous local persons.
Note: see additional images on talk page.
Lefaucheux Model 1854
Cassius Calhoun (Aarne Üksküla) is seen with a Lefaucheux Model 1854 revolver that constantly switches to Colt and back again. Lefaucheux revolvers are also seen in hands of US Army officers and townsmen.
Beaumont-Adams
Henry Poindexter (Aleksandr Milokostyj) and Isidora Covarubio (Eslinda Núñez) are seen with Beaumont-Adams Percussion Revolvers.
Unidentified revolvers
In the scene of the alarm in Casa del Corvo one of the guests holds a revolver that looks similar to percussion Colt revolvers but is definitly smaller that Colt 1851 Navy.
A snub nose revolver (possibly some kind of Bulldog) is seen in hands of a townsman during the trial.
Rifles
Colt Model 1855
El Coyote's henchmen are seen armed with a Colt Model 1855 revolving rifle.
Sharps 1863 Carbine
US Army cavalrymen and local townsmen are mostly armed with Sharps carbines. Most likely it's the Sharps 1863 Carbines.
Mosin Nagant M1938 Carbine
In the scene of the trial some townsmen at the background hold rifles that appear to be out of time and out of place Mosin Nagant M1938 Carbines, probably used due to insufficient number of authentic Sharps carbines.
Muskets
Percussion Cap Musket/Shotgun
Aged hunter Zebulon "Zeb" Stump (Ivan Petrov) carries a percussion cap musket or shotgun with a very long barrle throughout the movie.
Many townsmen carry percussion cap muskets or shotguns with "ordinary" barrels.
