In Tombstone, Billy Clanton used a 1878 Parker 12 ga. hammergun, Wyatt used a 10 ga. Stevens, and Doc used a sawed-off 10 ga. Meteor.
I most liked the 12 ga. sleeved into a 10 ga. that was used in Appaloosa.

Just wish I knew what Burt Lancaster used in Valdez is Coming. He had a sawed off double, not to speak of the 1000 yd. shot with the Sharps. One of the best western movies of all time, IMO.

Yeah, Debra Kerr ,elephant and double bore rifles what's not to like.
Speaking of 8 bore/gauge ; What about Appaloosa?

My bad, PM, the Appaloosa gun was sleeved into 8 ga. You're absolutely right.

In the Novella that Jim Harrison wrote- and later sold the rights to Hollywood for the movie-The double that Tristan Ludlow brought back for his Father was a 12 bore Purdey hammerless. Of course, Jim's story was 'altered" and true story- he was just a chain smoking starving Michigan recluse writer who loved to drink and hunt grouse with his prized Setters. Jack Nicholson took a liking to him, and staked to a loan for $15K to help him over the hump-- after the movie came out, Jack received a registered letter with a hand written thank you note and a cashier's check for $17,500 enclosed- repayment plus interest. Nicholson was astonished- He told his close pal Harvey Keitel-"Hey, I had it as spare change. No one ever before that I helped out with a loan ever said "Thanks" yet alone paid it back.. I find that quite telling about Jim Harrison's character and upbringing-- he also wrote another novella entitled "Revenge" and Hollywood made a movie of that with Kevin Kostner and I believe the last movie role the late Anthony Quinn played before his passing--I hold Jim Harrison to be one of the best writers to ever come out of the MidWest--
"The field is the touchstone of the man"..

In answer to someone's question about the double in Romancing the Stone, I always thought that was a Howda(sp?) Double Barreled Pistol, a gun used for repelling attacking tigers attempting to dine on the occupants of the wicker "chairs" atop elephants.
