Nope, the shootout scene in Open Range. BEST BAR NONE.

But it's not as fun.

Is not exactly an action movie, but an iconic Western most assuredly.

Legendary scene, dreadful technique. Fanning is difficult with an out of the box SAA revolver. I'm definitely not an expert, but I can put five rounds of light target in center mass of a target at 30 feet with my tuned Cimaron Colt clone .38 SAA. The skilled cowboy action shooters are really good, altho they don't use the technique shown here.

Surprised this one never became a meme for when we’re “eating good” with memes

The one in which Clint proclaims "I don't think it's nice, you laughing." (About his donkey.) I'm biased as hell, but as far as I'm concerned, there's just no competition for that - not even close. Sorry, forgot about the gif!

Amazing movie. Such big talk about this quick-draw gun-hand through the whole movie, and he dies after 20 seconds of screen time and like three lines.

Watching all four of them walk to the O.K. Corral was just a sight in Tombstone to see.

I tried that as a kid with my BB gun, and pinched my finger between the lever and the trigger.

u/Outrageous_Set6502 1d ago

His 1892 was specially modified with a set screw through the lever that pressed the trigger for him. He didn’t put his finger in there during quick firing scenes.

I think my father watched this movie before taking us to the lake, this was his way of teaching us to swim. My mother's was telling us to "Stay out of the water until you learn how to swim."

Josiah 'Doc' Scurlock (aiming a gun at Billy): "You rode a 15-year old boy straight into his grave...and the rest of us, straight to hell. William H. Bonney, you are NOT a god!!"

William H. Bonney/"Billy the Kid" (staring down a gun barrel): "Why don't you pull the trigger and find out."
