Hell On Wheels is a fictionalized AMC television series about the building of the US transcontinental railroad (now on Netflix). These are the wiki pages that share which firearms were used. Some really awesome looking old time firearms.

Seems like their was a better than average attempt at maintaining some sort of realism with the weapons (and other commonalities) for the period.
Unfortunately I lost interest shortly after season two started.

Filmed in Alberta. My son was an extra in an episode.

I think I vaguely remember that.

I found the links dedicated to the firearms used in the series while trying to find out if PT's Uberti .45LC Russian was used in it. I've seen that pistol somewhere before and that had me curious about where.

Thought the links showed some cool firearms, so chose to share.

Agreed. The internet firearms database is great to look up favorite movies. Thks
