One of the anachronisms I allude to was his pistol in the final shootout. In the climax Newman's SSA has changed into a double action revolver. He makes several shots in quick succession. I have seen the movie countless times and never noticed until the last time I viewed it. I replayed it several times and froze it and saw it was not a SAA and was a double action. I just saw on the wiki post joe817 made it was in fact a Colt Police Positive. There's also debate on his rifle. Some say it's a '73 Winchester button mag and some say it's a'76.joe817 wrote:Good movie. Lot's of cool guns.
Here's the one's they used in the movie:

Re: HOMBRE, the movie
One of my favorites. Has a couple of firearm anachronisms, but you'd have to look close.
