Patton (1970).

The following firearms were used in the film Patton:






Single Action Army

True to his real life counterpart, Gen. George S. Patton (George C. Scott) carries two ivory-gripped Single Action Army revolvers in a holster (alternatively carrying only one in most scenes), with his initials "GSP" engraved on the grip. When a reporter asks him about his "pearl-handled revolvers", Patton quickly retorts "They're ivory. Only a pimp from a cheap New Orleans whorehouse would carry a pearl-handled pistol."

Colt Single Action Army w/ 5" barrel known as the "Artillery" model. The most common of the SAA revolvers as it is just the right length. .45 Long Colt

Thompson M1928A1

Many American soldiers use the Thompson M1928A1.

MAT-49

Some of the Morrocan troops that line up for Patton carry MAT-49 submachine guns. These are anachronistic for the scene, which takes place in 1943, as they weren't developed until a few years later.

Major General Walter Bedell Smith (Ed Binns) also carries a Colt Model '03 in a shoulder holster.
