He would not like the single shot rule with pumps, and the 2 handed rule with revolvers. He would not have liked the loaded down game loads that are allowed, and the wimpy 38s that rule.
He would have liked the frontier matches, and the long range Sharps matches.
He would have straighted out a lot of misconceptions on what the West was really like, and set up a course of fire where you shot across a street, or from behind a door. Remember he said in Hell I was there, it was not the fastest man that won a gunfight, it was the first man that shot the other. Like he told the bad egg in Ovando, you bought it, and paid for it, If I see you anywhere I will give it to you. And I don't think he was thinking about giving the man a fair chance.
