Origins of the Gunslinger - Texas Rangers Captain John Coffee "Jack" Hayes, Texas Ranger Captain Samuel Hamilton Walker, Samuel Colt. An up close and personal look at how weapons evolved over time, and had a significant impact first on combat between Natives and westward settlers, and second between bandits and law enforcement.

Jesse James and the Southern Guerillas - William Quantrill, Bloody Bill Anderson, Detective Allen Pinkerton, Cole Younger, Frank and Jesse James, the Civil War, the Lawrence Kansas Raid. Early outlaws with primitive goals and methods are the focus in episode two, and help set the stage for increased attention from federal, state and local lawmakers. It might not have been about the money or prestige for these pioneering bandits, but rather the thrill they got from their actions.
S01:E03 - The Outlaws (Pt. 2)
Billy the Kid and the Lone Outlaws - Ben Thompson, Clay Allison. Billy the Kid was an aggressively violent criminal who is also remembered by some as a hero during these turbulent decades. While you can debate the actual number of persons he killed, you can't argue his lasting popularity.

Wild Bill Hickok, on the other hand, lives on in the poker world for his well known Dead Man's Hand, where the player holds two aces and two eights, all black (the fifth card Hickok was holding when murdered by Jack McCall remains a mystery to this day).
