The following weapons were used in Season 2 of the television series Hell on Wheels:


Handguns

Colt 1851 Navy (Brass Frame)

In "The Railroad Job" (S2E05), fallen gunmen still holding their revolers. These appear to be brass-framed copies of the Colt 1851 Navy revolver, which did not exist until the Italians started making them during the 1960s.

Colt 1860 Army

A Colt 1860 Army is used throughout the series. The 1860 was the most common handgun in the United States at the time, most had a brass trigger guard (see photo), they were not manufactured with a brass frame like the Griswold above.

Rifles

Sharps 1874

In "Scabs" (S2E04), Bohannon uses a a "long rifle" to shoot a railroad worker tortured by the Sioux. The rifle seen appears to be a Sharps 1874 fitted with a Malcolm-style scope, which is again a problem of dating since the railroad was completed in 1869 and the 1874 model came . . . well . . . later.
