Hi,

Can anyone post a photo from the Clint Eastwood movie "Unforgiven" showing whether the Spencer was a carbine or a rifle?

Thanks,

I cant post a photo, but i can tell you it was a carbine. What a setup Eastwood's character wound up with at the end. Spencer Carbine, Schofield revolver, and a double barrel shotgun. What more can a man need!

According to the Unforgiven "Trivia for the film Unforgiven" (1992), see this link:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105695/trivia,

The following guns were used in this movie. 1. William Munny used a 1859 Starr revolver double action, a Smith and Wesson Schofield revolver, a 12-gauge double barreled coach shotgun, and later a Spencer rifle. 2. Ned uses a Spencer rifle. 3. The Kid uses a S&W Schofield, and earlier he uses a Winchester 1873 rifle. 4. English Bob uses a Colt 1873 "Peacemaker" Single action Army and a Bulldog .32 caliber pocket pistol. 5. Little Bill used a Colt 1873 "Peacemaker" Single action Army. 6. The Cathouse owner has a Colt 1851 single action revolver. 7. Andy the deputy uses a Winchester 1866 "Yellow Boy" made to look like a Henry rifle by removing the for-end. 8. The one armed law man uses 3 revolvers one a Remington 1875 and 2 Colt 1873 "Peacemakers". 9. Various people stick to the famed "peacemakers" and Winchester '73 rifles.

Two Flints I am pretty sure it was a carbine.  I think they were using the term "rifle" generically.

Did anybody notice that the carbine used in the movie was an original?  Take a good look at the Hammer - Definitely an 1860.
