Cool gun is no longer a trope, and the others don't fit here.


* CoolGuns:
** Almost the whole gang uses Winchester Model 1897s at one point or another.
** The American and Mexican soldiers along Coffer use M1903 Springfields. Among the Mexican soldiers it was presumably a stand-in for Mexican Mausers, as in 1913 the United States wasn't exporting the M1903 to anybody.
** A Browning M1917 is put to good use during the climax.

* PowerWalk: Before the final battle, the outlaws decide to rescue Angel, walking through a Mexican village they will shortly massacre. Fun fact: It wasn't in the script at all, Peckinpah just decided he wanted to do it. It's recognised today as one of the movie's most iconic scenes.

** TheLancer - Dutch Engstrom
** TheSmartGuy - Lyle Gorch
** TheBigGuy - Tector Gorch
