The following guns were used in the film For a Few Dollars More:
All the guns in this film were supplied by Aldo Uberti Inc. of Italy.
Single Action Army
The Single Action Army revolver is prominently used by several characters in the film, most notabley Monco (Clint Eastwood) aka "The Man With No Name", who once again uses a 5" Artillery model with a color case hardened frame and a silver rattlesnake grip.
Single Action Army "Buntline Special"
While I usually group all the Single Action Armies together, I figured the Buntline Specials deserved their own section due to the infamy of their usage in the film. Colonel Douglas Mortimer (Lee Van Cleef) makes use of two Buntline Specials, one seen in his saddle bags with a 16" barrel, and the other with a 12" barrel which he fits with a shoulder stock and uses like a carbine rifle. El Indio (Gian Maria Volontè) uses an 8" Buntline as his sidearm in the film as well.
Winchester 1892 Saddle Ring Carbine
Col. Douglas Mortimer (Lee Van Cleef) keeps a Winchester 1892 Saddle Ring Carbine in his saddle bag and uses it shoot out the outlaw's horse at the begining of the film. Some of El Indio's thugs use them as well.
Springfield 1873 Trapdoor
While hard to be certain, the prison guards look to be armed with Springfield 1873 Trapdoor rifles.
Lefaucheux
The old man who lives near the train tracks keeps a Lefaucheux pinfire revolver, and has Monco hand it to him as he rants on.
Remington 1866 Derringer
When one of El Indio's men is insulted by Mortimer, he goes for his gun only to be met by death from Mortimer's blued finish Remington 1866 Derringer he had hidden in his sleeve.
Volcanic Rifle
El Indio is seen brandishing a Volcanic rifle in one scene and Monco is seen holding the same Volcanic Rifle on El Indio during the final shootout in the town, when Mortimer and El Indio face off. The rather small-framed Volcanic was something of a predecessor to the 1860 Henry rifle; it fired a very weak .31 or .38 caseless "rocketball" round that, in some ways, was way ahead of its time. I have never seen a Volcanic in any other movie and you will notice that the rifle is never fired during filming.
Marlin 1893
While not completly shown, some of El Indio's men appear to be armed with Marlin 1893 rifles.
Colt Lightning Rifle
A Colt Lightning Rifle is seen in Col. Mortimer's saddle bag and one of the deputies guarding the bank vault is armed with one.
12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun
An unknown model 12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun is seen lowest on Mortimer's saddle bag.
