Ranking the significance of the most iconic movie guns was a tremendously difficult and extremely subjective task. In a way, each of these movie guns eventually became more important than the films in which they appeared. Like Quigley, Dixon reportedly used a Sharps rifle to make the shot. These guns were equipped with a ten-round tubular magazine and could be fired as fast as the shooter could cycle the action. Never mind that this exact model wouldn’t have existed during the time period in which the movie was set, the scene is unforgettable.
