  • The Sundance Kid on Random Fictional Wild West Gunslinger Win In A Free-For-All Shootout

    (#12) The Sundance Kid

    • Blackthorn, The Legend of Butch & Sundance, Outlaw Trail: The Treasure of Butch Cassidy, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid

    Weapon of Choice: Revolver ( Colt Single Action Army model)

    Signature Victory: While the Sundance Kid (Robert Redford) is one of the most feared and renowned quick-draw artists in the West, the most impressive display of his prowess comes at the beginning of the film during a poker game that threatens to turn physical. Another player - who is on the verge of calling Sundance a cheat but backs down - asks Sundance how good he truly is. Without a word, Sundance turns and draws his side arm, blasts the man's holster off his waist, then fires at the man's piece, sending it across the floor.

    Weaknesses: Sundance is not a tremendously strategic fellow, and would rather fight it out than live as a coward - despite the fact that he spends much of his time fleeing from a posse looking to capture him. Also, he can't swim and he's (understandably) terrified of drowning.

  • Malcolm Reynolds on Random Fictional Wild West Gunslinger Win In A Free-For-All Shootout

    (#13) Malcolm Reynolds

    • Firefly, Serenity, Firefly media franchise

    Weapon of Choice: Handgun (Moses Brothers Self-Defense Engine Frontier Model B)

    Signature Victory: The very first episode of the cult classic series Firefly quickly establishes that, despite its sci-fi setting, the show is very much a Western in terms of its themes, tropes, and general style. We also learn what kind of hero Malcolm Reynolds (Nathan Fillion) really is at the end of the pilot.

    While Mal and his crew are away on a job, a government spy posing as a passenger takes another guest hostage, holding a side arm to her head. Upon his return, Mal, without a word or even a hint of concern, draws his piece as he walks in and wordlessly takes out the spy as if it's no big deal at all. It's not his most daring fight, or his most impressive, but it solidifies his bravado for the rest of the show.

    Weaknesses: Mal is fiercely loyal to his friends, and protective to a fault, allowing his loyalty to be manipulated. He also lives by the credo, "If someone tries to [end] you, you try and [end] them right back," which leads to a propensity for engaging in fights he can't reasonably expect to win.

  • Frank on Random Fictional Wild West Gunslinger Win In A Free-For-All Shootout

    (#16) Frank

    • Once Upon a Time in the West

    Weapon of Choice: Revolver (Colt Single Action Army nickel finish model)

    Signature Victory: Frank (Henry Fonda) is one of the greatest evil madmen in movie history, and one of the most psychopathic slayers in the annals of Wild West cinema. At the start of Once Upon a Time in the West, Frank has been hired by a railroad tycoon to scare Brett McBain (Frank Wolff) off the property he owns so the tycoon can buy and develop it. Instead, Frank goes off-script and ends the man in cold blood before slaying all three of his young children for good measure - and this is how the audience is first introduced to Frank's particular brand of heartlessness.

    Weaknesses: Frank is driven by greed and a need for respect - which is one reason why he turns against the railroad tycoon when he feels betrayed. It also proves to be the reason he can't retain the loyalty of his men, who turn on him when they get a better offer. 

  • Doc Holliday on Random Fictional Wild West Gunslinger Win In A Free-For-All Shootout

    (#2) Doc Holliday

    Weapon of Choice: Revolver (Colt Single Action Army Quickdraw model)

    Signature Victory: While it would be easy to turn to the showdown at the OK Corral as an example of Doc's (Val Kilmer) prowess, the whole fight is a messy affair. Holliday's true mastery of the side arm can be seen when he faces off against the frighteningly accurate Johnny Ringo (Michael Biehn) and ends him in a quick draw, despite suffering from late-stage tuberculosis.

    Weaknesses: Well, tuberculosis. Even before it ultimately ends him, Holliday has a propensity for fainting, general weakness, and fits of coughing—although, as Johnny Ringo learns, it doesn't slow his trigger finger.

  • William Munny ('Unforgiven') on Random Fictional Wild West Gunslinger Win In A Free-For-All Shootout

    (#3) William Munny ('Unforgiven')

    Weapon of Choice: Revolver (Smith & Wesson Schofield Model 3), shotgun (W. Richards 10 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun), rifle (Spencer 1860 Saddle Ring Carbine). Munny (Clint Eastwood) is an equal-opportunity pragmatist, using whatever's at hand to get the job done. He often ends up using pieces that once belonged to his friends: In the climactic showdown, he wields both Ned Logan's (Morgan Freeman) rifle and the Schofield Kid's (Jaimz Woolvett) revolver.

    Signature Victory: Arriving at the saloon in Big Whiskey, Wyoming, to avenge the slaying of his friend Ned Logan, Munny gets the drop on a posse assembled by Sheriff "Little Bill" Daggett (Gene Hackman). As an amuse-bouche before the big event, he blows away the saloon owner, then zeroes in on Little Bill. A misfire in his second barrel hardly slows down Munny, who throws the useless piece at his enemies, pulls out his side arm, and dispatches the posse members in a matter of seconds. Grabbing Ned's old rifle (which Little Bill had acquired) before the dust has settled, Munny finishes off the now-wounded Little Bill with the immortal line, "Deserve's got nothin' to do with it." 

    Weaknesses: At this stage in his life, Munny - who had ostensibly been "reformed" by his late wife - is reluctant to get involved in extralegal matters, and his skills have obviously declined. Once his ire is aroused and he shakes off the rust, however, Munny's a stone-cold marksman, demonstrating neither fear nor remorse.

  • Man with No Name on Random Fictional Wild West Gunslinger Win In A Free-For-All Shootout

    (#1) Man with No Name

    • Back to the Future Part II, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, A Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More

    Weapon of Choice: Revolver (Colt Single Action Army model)

    Signature Victory: In A Fistful of Dollars, the Man with No Name (Clint Eastwood) - also referred to as the Stranger - returns to town to face off against Ramon Rojo, the ruthless leader of a lawless crew. Secretly wearing a steel plate under his poncho, the Stranger taunts Ramon into firing at him, but the bullets just bounce off him until Ramon's side arm is empty. 

    The Stranger reveals the steel plate and then, with shocking speed, blasts the piece out of Ramon's hands and takes out all four of the henchmen standing around him. He then challenges Ramon to see who can reload their side arm first. The Stranger wins by a fraction of a second, putting an end to Ramon's frightening reign once and for all.

    Weaknesses: While he's undeniably a master of the quick draw, the Man With No Name doesn't always think his plans through. While the steel-plate-under-the-poncho is clever (and inspired the best scene in Back to the Future III), Ramon has a very accurate side arm, and could have just as easily fired at the Man's very unprotected face. This seems to be a running theme for the Man with No Name, and luck just carries him through.
