Deadliest Gunslingers of the Old West.
There’s no more iconic scene in Western movies than the good old-fashioned pistol duel, where the lawman and the outlaw meet at high noon to see who’s faster on the draw. In reality, such showdowns were incredibly rare, and the true stories of the Old West, like Wild Bill Hickok being shot in the back while playing cards, often revealed a far less romantic and more brutal reality. However, it's undeniable that amidst the outlaws and lawmen of the era, there were several larger-than-life gunfighters whose exploits helped shape the violent legacy of the Old West and served as inspiration for the characters in Western films and dime novels. In this video, we will show you 10 of the most famous and undeniably lethal Old West gunslingers.
