David Carradine was using a break action single-shot carbine, at the time I thought it might be one of a number breech loading carbines in use during the War of Secession and was impressed they would include it.

Turns out it was just a disguised H&R Topper but I’m still impressed they included it. A number of interesting guns in that movie....
