This came up as a click-bait article when I opened a search page.

What are those rifles? Yellowstone (I liked it) was pretty accurate with firearms. So I assume any spin-offs will be as well. But those have me scratching my head. Real? Not real? What say ye learned people of Africa Hunting? Educate me.

I'm not sure, I haven't seen Yellowstone or the spin -off. However, I would like to see more of these rifles for my own curiosity.

The one on the right the guy is holding looks to be an early model hammerless pump gun. The one on the left the gal is holding I can't tell if it is an early semi auto, or a break open of sorts as it looks like an underlever is in front of the trigger guard.

Both actions were "real" actually manufactured action rifles, just not sure if they are correct for the era they are representing (reenacting), or if they are just doing a photo opt holding "antique" firearms.

Rips gun the rifle sight looks to be on the bottom mag tube instead of the barrel
 
The one on the left is a magazine fed single shot break-open 29 ga.

AI is mighty and faulty tool. This is AI drawing. Do not bother with such things.
 
I think we are dealing with AI generated rifles...


Kevin Costner actually used his father's Winchester 1894 in filming Yellowstone.

It's a rare speech for a Hollywood actor, these days.

If you don't want to watch the whole thing, start at 6:50 and watch until 9:30, then watch from 24:00 to 25:45.

I think they’re AI generated “rifles”. The one on the right has no sights or scope. Also notice how little drop in the stock there is.
@Wyatt Smith
Very observant young grasshopper. You have learnt much.
How's that 25 going mate have you taken a deer with it yet.

No deer yet, but on coyotes it’s pretty boring. They just fall over dead. It likes 85 grain ballistic tips.
@Wyatt Smith
Yeh 25s are a bit boring because they just kill, no fuss, no bother and are usually very accurate to go with it.

That is just a thumbnail a YouTuber created for his video. It has nothing to do with the show.

AI is really beating up on the old guys
 
with a little work they could have had real firearm pictures, instead of cralola looking want to be AI rifles.
It’s just a YouTube video and that made that a thumbnail or title image for their video.
It is in no way associated with the show.

Made by a YouTuber “next film” as you can see under the video.
