Handguns

Unidentified snub nose revolvers

Snub nose revolvers are seen in hands of Jo Walker (Tony Kendall), Tom Rowland (Brad Harris) and one of The Golden Serpents thugs. These revolvers aren't Arminius HW-1, widely used in previous movies, as the front sight and the extractor rod are quite different.

Unidentified revolvers

The Golden Serpents thugs use various revolvers. After Jo Walker (Tony Kendall) looses his snub nose revolver, he takes one from an incapacitated thug. This particular revolver has yellow grips and half-moon front sight, similar to the one of Colt New Service but it is positioned on the very muzzle end of the barrel, unlike the Colt.
