Ryū ga Gotoku Ishin! (龍が如く 維新!, lit. "Like a Dragon Restoration!") is an historical spin-off of the main Yakuza series. It follows character Sakamoto Ryoma through the Bakumatsu period of Edo period. While mostly focused on sword fighting, firearms do appear which is accurate to the era.
The following weapons appear in the video game Ryu ga Gotoku Ishin!:


Handguns

Colt 1860 Army

A revolver similar to the Colt 1860 Army model appears in cutscenes and forms the "Imported Revolver" class of pistols. It has a Colt Walker's square shape triggerguard and cartridge-converted cylinder. Bizarrely, the weapon also still appears to have the loading lever of the percussion cap model, though it is encased in a surround which would render it useless. It also has a S&W-like hinge, which means that it should work as a top break.

Colt 1860 Army - .44 caliber
Toudou Heisuke aims the Colt. Note the frame under the barrel surrounding either an offset and useless extractor rod or an immobilised and even more useless loading lever, and front top-break hinge.

Smith & Wesson Model 2

A revolver based on the Smith & Wesson Model 2 appears in various cutscenes and is also Ryoma's first revolver model, fittingly named the "Model 2." This forms the basis of the "Model 2" class of pistols, ultimate version of which is called the Golden Gun and appropriately has a golden finish. The Golden Gun then makes a return in Yakuza Kiwami.

Unknown Revolver

This model appears as the "Domestic Revolver" group and weirdly appears to have a wooden frame.

Rifles

Springfield 1861

Certain enemies use what appears to be a shortened carbine version of the Springfield 1861 caplock musket.

Springfield Model 1861 - .58 caliber Minie ball. Note curved hammer and conventional priming.
A man threatens Sakomoto with his musket, note the placement of the rear sight and hammer which help ID it as a Springfield.

Other

Gatling Gun

A large, four-barrel Gatling gun appears in the arms dealer shop. It appears to mount to a wheeled carriage, two of which are placed in front.

Large Cannon

Okita Souji can be seen firing a large cannon to blast open a gate in the opening video. For some reason, it appears to have spade grips like a Browning M2 machine gun.

Okita Souji lives up to his reputation by blowing the gate to smithereens with the cannon.

Wheeled Cannon

A smaller cannon on a wheel mount is used by Dr Shinbei during his training, in what is essentially a re-hashing of the baseball mini-game on other Yakuza titles. It has a store for cannonballs on the side, although it is muzzle loaded.
