True Grit (2010)

Colt Dragoon

Mattie Ross (Hailey Steinfeld) carries her father's Colt Dragoon, as is described in Portis' book. The gun used in the film is an actual percussion Dragoon, while the 1969 film used a cartridge-converted Colt Walker. I imagine the Walker was used due to its even more imposing size to contrast with Mattie's small stature. Still, I appreciate the adherence to the source material.

Single Action Army

Rooster also carries a Single Action Army of "Cavalry" length. La Boeuf (Matt Damon) carries a Single Action Army with fancy carved ivory grips.
