I point out that if we're discounting Neo's other qualities, he's a computer hacker with no special distinction or even proficiency in firearms that we know of.
It's Rogue, not Rouge!

Given how astoundingly bad his accuracy is in the Lobby Scene (frequently missing people 30 ft away) I don't even think he should be in the pole. If you want my vote for best gunslinger, though, I think it would be the Manga versiou of Major Kusanagi.

It's IL DUCE!!!!
Gah, people, learn to spell!
And I have to say the Lord of the Gun is either Preston or or Il Duce.
Between the two I have to say it's Gramaton Cleric John Preston. Any one that can leap into a room with 20 or so automatic armed nutcases, avoid even a scratch, and dispatch them with ease is a fucking bad ass to behold.
Though divine protection is damn good too. And Il Duce is never ever touched in a fight.

Well, technically he did get shot, or at least grazed.Stormbringer wrote:Though divine protection is damn good too. And Il Duce is never ever touched in a fight.
Second, for all the lead he was sending out he only hit the Saints and Rocco once each.
I'd say the Saints are better than him. Though, you could chalk up the fight to divine protection cancelling out.

I don't think he was actually hit. He simply fled when he had exhausted his shots and they were still resisting.neoolong wrote:Well, technically he did get shot, or at least grazed.Stormbringer wrote:Though divine protection is damn good too. And Il Duce is never ever touched in a fight.

I would vote for the Gunslinger, but that option isn't there.

Hate to me-too, but IIRC Vash the Stampede (of Trigun) would clearly be head-and-shoulders over most of the other guys in the poll. And then there's Alucard (of Hellsing).

Preston. as said who else can jump, fully silliouted, into a room of automatic gun weilding sense offenders and live?
seriously though i can only remember two instances where Preston missed
1) in the shotgun fight he has to fire twice with a pistol to take out the head sweeper.
2) In the final pistol whip scene he missed reapeatly but that wasn't really him missing more as his gun being shoved out of line...
and only one instance of him being hit, again the final gun trapper fight he sustain a graze to his neck off-screen...

HOW COULD YOU FORGET ROLAND????
If not any gunslinger, then definitely Roland of Gilead is the best there is with a gun. There's a reason why gunslingers are feared by evil in all the universes.

I'd be tempted to put Vash slightly higher, but it's preston all the way.
