Used by Ibzan Diesirae, Created by HumbleMemeMumbles.
( )

Ibzan's trigger finger itches slightly. Something moves through the gravekeeper, his breathing steadied. He had never thought he'd do something like this before, never thought he'd need to.

And yet, his flame burns brightly. Unwavering, yet to be extinguished.

There's a crack through the air, from an apartment in a place long unknown.
Blood paints the walls as the corpse falls.
There stands a champion of life, weapon held tight.
Lighter in hand, he reflects
in the lands of eternal night.

Over a decade of practicing withing the French Foreign Legion will teach you how to use just about any modern firearm. However, the investigator has a knack for slower firing weapons, preferring to take aim for each shot, make a precise calculation for each bullet, rather than shooting in bursts or using full auto. Years of practice in the countryside with bolt action rifles, pistols and double-barrelled shotguns can help build up uncanny levels of hand-eye coordination.

Cowboy Guns: revolvers (ex. Colt Army/Walker, etc.), rifles (ex. Winchester, etc.), shotguns. Typically guns made before the 19th century and therefore no semi-automatics, etc. This does not include sniper rifles which while made before the 19th century, didn't gain popularity until after the 19th century during WW1. So no, sniper rifles are not a cowboy gun.
