[Military sub-plane] Compiled and arranged by Fredrichlau
In 1960, a film of the same name was released in the United States, which was based on Akira Kurosawa's famous film Seven Samurai in 1954. The film was an adaptation of the 1960 film. It tells the story of seven western warriors from different backgrounds who join forces to protect a village from bandits, including once heinous villains, Asians with sword skills, legendary killers, bounty hunters representing the law, and maverick Carmanches, each of whom has a unique skill, and when faced with the situation of unarmed villagers being bullied, they throw themselves into battle without hesitation, and finally unite the villagers to defeat the powerful bandits, composing a heroic hymn that can be sung and wept.
Western movies have always been a kind of movie that people talk about, Clint. Eastwood's classic image in Red Dead Redemption makes people curious and yearning for the wild West of that era. The "Heroic Seven Dragons" introduced this time is also another masterpiece that shows the west of that year, although it cannot surpass the previous work, but the addition of a Hollywood star has added a lot to the film. I will continue to sort out several Western movie articles, so stay tuned!

【Colt Single-Action Army Revolver (SAA)】
What appears in the play is an artillery-type SAA pistol with a barrel length of 5.5 inches, while the other cavalry type has a barrel length of 7.5 inches. The Seven Dragons were used by Sam, Freddie and the Mexican Vazquez. Whenever they fired, they would use the hammer rapid fire method to quickly fire bullets, which was a necessary trick for 19th-century cowboys.
The Colt Single-Action Army Revolver is also known as the "Duelist", "SAA", "M1873", "MP" and so on. The gun is a .45 caliber, rotatable magazine filled with six metal bullets. By Colt's two famous gun designers William. Mason and Charles. Brunkohoff. Richards design. Originally designed to provide the U.S. government with a standard weapon, the gun was produced by the Colt Arms Patent Manufacturing Company (now the Colt Company) in 1872, and was selected as the standard pistol of the U.S. Army until 1892. (In 1892 Colt introduced the .38 caliber M1892 double-action gun into service with the Army.) The SAA pistol, along with the S&W M3 Schofield revolver, replaced the Colt 1860 revolver that year, and Colt quickly gained more favor and won orders from the U.S. Army with saa. In 1874, a total of 16,000 SAA were manufactured, of which 12,500 entered the military service, and the rest flowed into the civilian market. This is the good story of the Legendary Pistol of the West.
The first SAA pistol to go offline was once thought to have been lost, but was later discovered in the 20th century in a barn in Nashua, New Hampshire, using a central-fire .45-caliber bullet that used high-quality fine-grained black powder that was highly powerful and performed relatively well compared to pistols of the same type at the time.
The SAA pistol had more than 30 different calibers and barrel lengths, but its general shape and style had not changed much since 1873. Colt twice stopped producing the gun, but resumed production again despite its enormous demand, and was used by farmers, law enforcement officers, and even criminal gangsters at the time. Until the 21st century, there will still be avid gun enthusiasts and participants in the repetition of the war to buy and collect this pistol. The design of the gun influenced many gun models and company designs in later generations. It has been hailed as the "gun that won the war in the west".
【Colt 1851 Navy】
Emma is used in the play.
The gun was shot by Samuel. Developed in 1847-1850, Colt initially called the gun a cavalry type, but the Navy's designated variant soon replaced the cavalry type. The gun was produced until 1873, when metal bullets that fit snugly against rifle barrels were invented and widely used. The production of these pistols is very large, with a total of 25,000 produced by factories located in the country, and 22,000 in London factories.
【J． Stecens and Company 12 Shotguns]
Freddie used.
There are two styles of double-barrel shotguns: side-by-side SxS and vertical barrel (over/under O/U), traditional double-barrel shotguns are generally flat barrels, which facilitate loading ammunition from the front chamber, and early reloaded shotguns are also flat barrels, because they still retain the hammer of the previous breech loading rifle, but it has been improved. As hammerless designs began to become popular, vertical barrels began to appear. Most modern shotguns today are vertical barrels. For example, in modern flying saucer two-way, shooters use shotguns with vertical barrels.
【Springfield M1873 Trapdoor Single-Shot Rifle】
When the Seven Dragons discussed with the townspeople how to resist the enemy, several of these rifles were placed on the table.
The M1873 was the first American army to be equipped with a trapdoor single-shot rifle (although in 1867 the M1866 was limited to troops along the Bozeman Railway), and was subsequently heavily used in the war against american Indians. The M1873 is a fifth-generation variant of Oskin S Erin's trapdoor rifle. It is called "trapdoor" because its flip-lock moves like a trapdoor. The infantry M1873 has an 839mm barrel and the cavalry version has a barrel length of 560mm. Later the M1873 was replaced by the more advanced M1884.
【Winchester M1873】
Zezam and Goodnight, Jack and others are using it
I believe that everyone will not be unfamiliar with this gun, the classic bullet action, high rate of fire and high precision, large capacity makes it a weapon in the hands of western cowboys. Junwu Mall recently sold M1873 leather band guns. It is also a regular in Western films. The M1873 lever bolt rifle was the most successful rifle of its time, and like the SAA described earlier, it was hailed as the "gun that won the war in the West." I don't know if it is to Clint. Westwood's representation of Western cinema influenced a generation, and the gun still has a high popularity today. The M1873 was produced in 1873-1919, initially with only a .44-40 caliber, and later a .38-40 and .32-20 caliber, which were the most popular pistol calibers of the year, which made it easy for shooters to carry the same bullet. The M1873 is available in three variants: the 24-inch barrel type, the 20-inch barrel type, and a "smoothbore gun" (another name for the military type of "Musket" at that time, which is different from the name of the ordinary smoothbore Musket). Although the current replica can fire a gauge .45 bullet, the ordinary M1873 did not do so in the past due to the problem of ammunition supply. The popularity of the gun also prompted Colt to design a new .44-40 caliber single-action Army pistol.
Winchester M1866 "Yellow Boy"]
In the play, both Goodnight and Emma are used.
The Winchester M1866 fires heavy bullets and is therefore equipped with a new, more robust latching mechanism, which was designed by the famous firearms designer John F. Kennedy. Moses. Browning Design (Browning had a good partnership with Winchester in the 1880s and early 20th century), followed by William B. Browning. Mason made improvements to Browning's design. In some respects the M1886 was a true American high-speed shotgun that could be filled with more powerful black powder bullets at the time, such as the .45-70Government, which Winchester later improved to fire not only .45-70 caliber bullets, but also .45-90, .50-110Express "bison" bullets, and in 1903 a smokeless high-speed .33WCF bullet. In 1935 the gun's improved M71 was introduced, firing a more powerful .348 Winchester bullet.
【Gatling Machine Gun】
This is an early hand-cranked rotary high-speed machine gun, developed by Richard. Gatlin design. It was heavily adopted by the Confederate Army during the Civil War, and then appeared in many conflicts, representing the most terrifying destructive power of the time and the conquest of Western invaders in all directions, such as the world-famous Zulu War, where the Zulus suffered heavy casualties under the frantic firing of the British army equipped with modern firearms, and the bloodiest Battle of Mount San Juan in the Spanish-American War, Theodore. Roosevelt also fought in the war, and the American army was also equipped with Gatling machine guns. The Gatling machine gun also appeared in the Wuchen War in Japan, and although only a few of them participated in the battle, the damage caused was also very large. The military police who suppressed the railway strike in 1877 were also used.
The Gatling machine gun adopts the firing method of rotating the barrel, so that the barrel can be cooled, and the upper shell can be more coordinated, each barrel turns a circle to fire a bullet, while exiting the bullet to fill the next round, in maintaining a high rate of fire can also make the barrel not overheat.
Faraday later died armed with explosives along with the gangsters who operated the machine gun.
