Nice, but where's the trigger? This article or section is incomplete. You can help IMFDB by expanding it.

The following weapons were used in the film Zulu Dawn:

Zulu Dawn (1978)

Webley MkVI

Used by British Officers. Like the earlier film, Zulu, the Webley mark IV stands in for the earlier Webley and Adams models which were either standard issue or privately purchased.

Webley Pryse

Colonel Pulleine (Denholm Elliot) uses a Webley Pryse before he is killed. This weapon was commonly privately purchased by officers during this period. Mr Fannin (Don Leonard), the Boer merchant who is chased by Zulu warriors, also appears to have this model pistol.

Martini-Henry

Used by some British Troops.

Martini-Henry Carbine

Both cavalry and infantry use the Henry Martini carbine during the film. This is inaccurate as the infantry used the rifle version shown above. Mention is made that Col. Durnford's cavalry is wholly equipped with these weapons which is also inaccurate as in reality they were largely equipped with Sniders or Westley Richards carbines.
