The Sons of Salem
We swear to secure our people against the wickedness and evil of the invisible world.
We swear to aid the afflicted.
We swear to stay ever vigilant and seek out the abominable witchcrafts committed in this country.
We humbly pray to be blessed by God to hold all those who consort with the Devil accountable. Amen
—Opening and closing prayer for Sons of Salem meetings.
The Sons of Salem is a loosely-organized conservative populist movement in the United States that preaches violent opposition to anything they perceive as witchcraft, demonic, or monstrous.
Blowhard podcaster Ted Gundy and former general of the mercenary group “Hognose,” Roland Rush, founded the movement in 2010 after a series of violent werewolf attacks and unexplained, supernatural murders in Tennessee. Memberships grew quickly, stoked by Ted’s fiery doomsday rhetoric on his podcast "Truth Seekers" and the aspiration of the masculine power embodied by Roland.
Although they speak of duty, honor, and maintaining the “natural order” of things, the Sons of Salem are driven by fear. They collect guns and appear at protests en-masse as a way of easing the all-consuming terror of their powerlessness. At the same time, they have conditioned themselves to respond to fear with “strength” (read: violence).

"I'LL TURN YOU INTO SCRAP!"

Sharpshooter
Fastest shot in the west!
With the focus of an experience marksman, Buck focuses his mind eyes on the target. Whether he wants them down or dead, that’s well within his skill to do so.
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.
