Seraphim Falls

The following guns were used in the movie Seraphim Falls:

Seraphim Falls (2006)

Henry 1860

Carver (Liam Neeson) uses an Henry 1860 rifle in the beginning of the film. It is an iron frame Henry, the first 400 of the 14000 produced. Brass was added in late 1862 as production picked up. Henry rifles were far too expensive ($45 to $65 each) to be issued in large numbers during the war. A Common Enfield Rifle cost $14. The Copper rounds used 28 grains of black powder and cost 1.6 cents each (about 4 times the price of muzzle loading ammo), most were purchased my individual soldiers with their own money. 12000 were produced from 1862 to 1865 and sales slowed when the War ended. 110,000 1866 (Yellow Boy- side loading gate) Henry Rifles were made up to the introduction of the famous Winchester 1873 model. The "Yellow Boy" is seen in the Movie Silverado by the two main black characters.

Colt Dragoon

Carver (Liam Neeson) also carries a Colt Dragoon .44 caliber as his personal sidearm. This, again, is appropriate for the time period.

Colt 1849 Pocket

Madame Louise (Angelica Houston) sells Carver a Colt 1849 Pocket model with a Confederate-style brass frame. In the film it is a cartridge converted firearm, as evidenced by the lack of percussion nipples in the fourth photo below.

Smith & Wesson Schofield

Hayes (Michael Wincott) carries what appears to be a Smith & Wesson Schofield, which would be anachronistic for this movie.
