* Major Ocelot in ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid3'' is a pretty solid YoungGun, being a 20-year-old MAJOR in charge of his own unit who can [[ImprobableAimingSkills easily kill people with ricochet shots]]. Unfortunately when you put him up against [[AlwaysABiggerFish Naked Snake]] it shoves him violently into this trope by comparison, leaving him to be tossed about and take a motorcycle wheel to the face as if he wasn't a threat at all. Snake's [[StealthMentor Stealth Mentoring]] Ocelot a thing or two (such as not using a semi-automatic like a revolver when it jams) is what turns him into the MagnificentBastard he is in later games.

** Danny Crowe is actually a KnifeNut variant. He prides himself on his knife skills and is working up his courage to test the '21 foot rule' (supposedly if a gun fighter and a knife fighter are separated by less than 21 feet, the knife fighter can run in and kill the gun fighter before the later has time to draw and fire) against an experienced gunfighter. The first time he chickens out, the second time he is interrupted when a car hits him and the third time [[spoiler: he trips and stabs himself to death]].

* The titular character of ''WesternAnimation/{{Rango}}'' is a Type 3 who wanders into the town of Dirt, and in an attempt to fit in amongst the locals, he boasts coming from a place much worse than Dirt, even claiming that he once killed seven men with only a single bullet. While he has nothing to back him up by this point, this soon changes when he, by dumb luck, manages to kill [[TheDreaded the hawk besieging the town]]. By the end of the movie, he's fully become a proper sheriff and hero, even if he retains some KnowNothingKnowItAll aspects.

* Kid Blue from ''Film/{{Looper}}'' is a small-time street thug who clearly watched too many westerns as a kid and now tries ([[IneffectualSympatheticVillain very ineptly]]) to act the part of the cool, Creator/ClintEastwood-esque gunslinger. He wields a fancy, old-fashioned revolver that he [[RecklessGunUsage twirls around like a 5-year-old messing with their dad's gun]] and has apparently shot himself in the foot by accident at least once.
