If you shoot Billy Midnight's gun out of his hand, he will pull out another and shoot himself. Fun for the whole family!
I my last playthrough, I shot the gun out of his hand, then shot him between the eyes when he drew the second gun before he could shoot himself :)
Unfortunately, you can't shoot the second pistol away, he's going down one way or another.
AutoCody14 can you laso him when he has his first gun out
Mr shit showers gabin has harmonica you miss that.. All the gunslingers got nice new guns... So you miss alot If you don't take those free and rare guns.. sorry My english im from Finland

The greatest evil you can do in this game is starting as Arthur and coming back as John meaning Levin had to stay with Calloway for 8 years before you helped
Jim boy calloways story for Red Redemption 3
@@rainbow4567 he's a coward bitch anyway. Something about Jack hall gang? Idk
That's canon though, I mean, in my view, John tracks down "Plato" becuase Arthur didn't visit them after the incidents.
@ZebraToxin ??? When he talks to Levin, he asks if it's him, Levin also doesn't remember him.
@@meowmeow3778 Arthur never mentioned his name to Levin either, so you get pretty much the same encounter.
Jim boy calloway killed 14 men once. Arthur: hold my beer. Responsible for all the lemoyne raiders, o'Driscoll gang, and 100s of others deaths singluarly.
Wouldn't Arthur be considered a legendary gunslinger
Arthur was the most legendary gunslinger in history but he never wanted the high profile, he found it silly and vain and would affect his crew. He just wanted the muneh.
And he did it when he was sick. He makes Doc Holliday and Jim Bowie look like pansies.
and he massacred 2 diffirent army brigades making it possible that he killed 3,000 or 4,000 in total
@@LiquidSnipess I'd say Arthur and John are the legendary gunslingers.
Even if he is a coward, he certainly is the quickest of the bunch when you fight him
Ya, but Billy Midnight is by far the most serious. It’s not easy to manage to actually shoot the lad before he ducks, usually you’ll end up missing and getting shot yourself.
cole lappan Micah?
flaco got me a couple times cuz i just couldnt get the placement of the reticle for when he dives. Billy got me once cuz i watched someone fight him and he pulled the suicide gun first but for me he squatted and faked me out :(
Billy killed me four times before I literally jammed my right trigger in anger and didn't give him much of a chance get me first.
When I did it the first time, I expected sum underhanded shit and I got distracted by his gold belt buckle he was shining at my eyes and got shot in the chest 😤
The funny is that when John says "send it to Jim Milton, and no it ain't my real name" if you play it with Arthur he will say almost that but instead of "Jim Milton" he says "Tacitus Kilgore"
Arthur's fake name is infinitely better than John's. I'm thinking about using it myself haha
Ant Thomas it’s the entire Gangs fake name for mail
@@alfiemckenna9576 yeah, Arthurs fake name is Arthur Callaghan
And John's is Rip Van Winkle
FENTON!
I'd argue this string of missions is better if you play it all the way through as Arthur
Sean St. Aubin id argue nearly everything is better played as arthur if you can
I KNEW I would miss Arthur once he was gone. I did as much of the game as I could with him.
Arthur reacts to thing so much more in his voice than John. John sounds like he’s watching it on TV and not actually doing it or really caring
Nah, I see john as the legendary gunslinger type.
John seems to idolize gunslingers like Landon Ricketts anyway
I only just realized that the voice actor for Marston had to voice act hours and hours of Arthur’s lines! Crazy!
Whats crazier is that this game is 95% performance capture, not voice acting. Which means the actor who played John had to actually act out all of the motions that Arthur did, as well as delivering the lines.
Also I'm pretty sure theres some variations in movements and dialogue written with the two
@@thenicemare How can I play as John
@@tappavapahvi6184 Finish the main story up to a certain point. The last two chapters you will play as John. Though I highly recommend making a seperate hard save before the Dutch mission "Our Best Selves" in Chapter 6 because that's a point of no return in the story that the game does not warn you about, if you don't make a save here you'll be stuck with John for your entire save. Well, barring the use of cheats and mods of course.
@@redshirt49 oh. I hope I can hang out with Arthur
"There'll always be people who'll shoot you in the back and rewrite history." Such a great line.

I like how if you finish the book as Arthur you can read it in johns house.
I didn't know that, how do you get it to activate as Arthur? Just wait?
you can go to the river boat in chapter 4 not sure if you have to do any of the chapter 4 missions
In the start of the epilog when John, abigale and Jack are moving to strawberry they are talking about the book in the carriage. Abigale liked the book but Jack liked stories about English knights more.
@@toucansam3645 the mission will eventually spawn in valentine and you can do the river boat mission in chapter 4
the mission continues in chapter 4. I think You need to finish trewlany's mission first in that same boat, that's how I activated.
"I even killed rocks!" Forgot about this absolute contender for best quote in the game. If you notice, Calloway is more educated then he lets on - correcting himself when he says "that which" and changing it to "thems which" during the riverboat scene, after casually name-dropping Caesar, Achilles, and Plato.
True
And Gawain, one of King Arthur's knights, who is a very unknown character
Muhammad Ali: "I hurt a rock, I hospitalised a stone, I killed a brick, I'm so mean I make medicine sick"
I don't think he was talking nonsense, I think he was trying to boast.
How is thems which better that that which
And Gawain. Who the fuck has heard of Gawain?
When looking back at the duel with Calloway, I noticed that he's kind of wiggling a bit. I also noticed how uncharacteristically shiny his belt buckle is. So I've come to the conclusion that he's using his belt buckle to reflect sunlight into your eyes to increase your chances of missing. A coward and a cheater till the end it seems.
Frankly that just sounds clever to me.
¹0
Did not noticed that the first time. Now I realized I spent few seconds on his shiny belt instead of his gun
I never did this mission, didnt realise that inspecting photos gives you the location, and couldnt be bothered about finding them, do I forgot about this
It worked on me honestly - I still won the duel but I definitely looked at his stupid belt for a fraction of a second lol
Just one interesting thing for Flaco, I don't remember how I triggered it but you can talk to his men then they will walk away.
You have to antagonize the men when they talk to you.
I couldn't remember how to do it on my second playthrough. But that seems right thinking about it.
OFAH88 I didn’t know that
Yeah, trying to be nice gets you in a fight if you go that route
i threw dinamite at him
I’m pretty sure Arthur has canonically killed more than 14 men at once by himself
What?! I knew Arthur was one of the best gunslingers but 14! Damn...
Non Canonically the most I've done as Arthur is 15. Dead Eye points go a long way.

I got the money as John when I started the epoiloge. It helped actually.
I killed Emmet Granger and Flaco Hernandez in Chapter 6 :v and i continued with john
he's face looks very fimler he looks like a an actor that I saw him in other movies
I love how they give John slight changes to his dialog. Like telling him to send the money to Jim Milton, instead of tacitus Kilgore
Well why tf would he say send it to tacitus kilgore if hes not in the gang anymore
king 10k shut up, he’s admiring the game for slight changes and the amount of detail
It still wouldn't make sense if he said to send it to the gang. Slight details or common sense.
@@bradcook7694 that's the point, they realized it wouldn't make sense so they changed the line. But that detail is not something you see in every game
Fun fact, Jim “boy” Calloway was a reference to bully, Jim as the main character Jimmy Hopkins, everyone called him “boy” and the name Calloway is similar to the English teacher Galloway
And his gun shared its inscription with the European name of Bully, Canis Canem Edit (Dog Eat Dog in latin)
wow that’s sick
Didn't know that, that's kinda cool
also both calloway and galloway are alcoholics
Jackdeannn 7 his revolver also says Canis Canem Edit which was what the code name given to Bully in Australia because apparently Bully is too inappropriate for a video game according to the Australian government
Honest to god, I felt horrible killing Jim. I used his revolver in every mission from then on, in honor of him.
Goosche You did him a good service. I mostly used midnights pistol
Not Pixer i didn’t really care to use midnights, as it had pretty low stats.
I dual wielded granger and flacos revolvers
I didn't feel guilty. But I used his custom engraved revolver.
Could of used volcanic pistols

yes! i liked flaco so much! its cool that in rd online you can meet him and do dirty jobs for him, but i really wish he participated more in the game
Devthebest374 online is set a few years before story mode Micah isn’t even part of the gang yet
I wish Black Belle was more involved in the game,
IMO she'd make a better badass gunslinger than Sadie Adler.
The reason you get the gunslingers locations is because the photos have the last known location of them on the back

@@noamias4897 and somebody at the same aisle as him yells “DRAW”
I always laugh when Arthur says "I'm unarmed", even though it's clearly visible that he's armed to the teeth.
I think he says that cuz originally I had my gun drawn at the door, and the gunslinger makes you put ur gun away before he comes out.

King of the Daddy's Yeah, Dutch, Lenny or Charles (don’t remember) and Arthur were going to rob a station in Saint Denis, Because Alden said it was full of money. But when they robbed it all the cops in Saint denis showed up in a few seconds after. Plus all they got was $15 so Alden lied and set them up.
@@kadz2.088 No, that was Bronte that set them up. Alden didn't do anything.
Source: I replayed that mission yesterday.
They tried to make Sadie the ultimate badass, but Black Belle is my choice.
Agreed! Black Belle is amazing. Though I do love Sadie too.
Sadie is the most overrated character. They tried _way_ too hard to make her a badass, imo.
@@-scrim They probably did try hard but it worked fine in my opinion.
The idea that they tried too hard in my opinion is silly, when you consider that almost every main protagonist you've ever played as has been the result of dev's trying insanely hard to make a character come across as a badass.
Did they write "strong female character on a whiteboard and pool ideas from there? Probably.
But I'm not against it. She's a fine character with a classic revenge story.
@@cxx23 Thing is Arthur or John has years of experience as a gunslinger with the gang. Sadie just becomes yeah I'm a badass woman now because lol revenge. Maybe if they slowly develop her throughout the story to justify her skills with the gun maybe she wouldn't come off as a try hard written character even then jesus lower her achievements will ya. She's as volatile as Micah in gunfights and apparantly she's just fine getting away with that crap because cool wahmen
@@NinjapowerMS I can agree that the jump from victim to badass was too fast and we never see her hone her skills.
I think comparing her to Micah is unrealistic though.
They are both unpredictable sure, but with Micah you have to worry he'll kill innocents.
Sadie only goes off on those trying to take advantage of her, and of course the O'Driscolls.
My reason for coming to her defense is that we are willing to suspend our belief for sudden male badasses all the time.
Normal guy turns instant killing machine when his daughter/wife/dog/etc is killed.
I agree at least that Sadies classic "sudden badassery trope" is a bit out of place in RDR2s otherwise realistic world.
Especially scenes like the one where you have to run to "help" her during the O'Driscoll raid of Shady Bell and she's completely destroying these guys who had her outnumbered with guns, with a knife.
10:55 if you antagonize the del lobos they’ll let you talk to Flaco without a fight. The cutscene still plays out the same and the gang turns hostile when Flaco does, but all the gang members will flee after Flaco dies.
Inside Granger’s house is the harmonica Sadie asks for in one of the first missions of chapter 3
Yup.

Best to do this with Arthur you get more dialogue
I think Jim Boy Calloway was trying to blind you by reflecting the sun off his belt buckle in the dual.
What would be really cool is if the third Red Dead Redemption goes even further back and we get cameos from all these gun slingers in their heyday.
It feels like that's what they're doing. We might see the time when Hosea and Dutch were getting their gang in full force.

From what Belle tells Arthur, the only thing Calloway did in gunfights is run and hide. Same thing is mentioned by the Marshall when you bring him to Calloway. Calloway never showed up for their duel.
Jimmy Calloway's Cousin is ALIVE. If wondering who is he is, It's the Doctor from Valentine. If you buy something in his shop, He'll mention his cousin saying "My cousin Jimmy......(forgot the rest of the Dialog)" which means Slim Grand Didn't/never shot Calloway's cousin because Jim Boy was probably drunk while away from a fight like Black Belle mention

What does he say about it?
it says that regardless as i didnt get to looking at pictures till after i was john was just too busy then forget and came back to it jack says that about the book no matter what .. so i think its a seprate book then the one jack refers to ..as jack was refering to one that was only about jim and his one friend but didnt include his other friends and was seperate side story .... vs a complete history ....
that book jack refers about is found at the cabin with the two dead kids in it
and made many yrs prior to the new one they wanted to make
Yeah i was impressed by detail when i first heard it
different book
I noticed out of all the gunslingers, billy was significantly younger, with him probably being fairly early 40's he probably still has his speed which made him so famous.
mid 30s sounds more right
Jim boy may be a coward but he also felt really bad when he shot him in the back, meaning he wanted an honorable duel and to get his revenge fair and square.
P.S shooting someone in the back is the most Dishonorable thing you could do in the old west.
Wrong Courier 6 well, it was the most dishonorable thing to do in the romanticized Wild West we’ve created that Jim Calloway abides by. In the real Wild West, happened all the time.
@@Meese12 thats true lol, ever since this comment ive since done more wild west history and know about it now.
Also shooting someone unarmed
I think it was more of the most cowardly things to do
Emmet is definitely a coward he didn’t even draw he threw a knife and went to attack you
Black Belle was an interesting character to me tbh, would like to see her expanded upon at a later time.
I mean she's based off Belle Starr.. just read a book.
@@WowDoodWuuut Ah, I never considered to see who she was based off of.
In the old west there actually was a couple of duels that were legit. Only like 2 famous duels were real though the rest of the gunslinger stories were just crazy drunkin shootouts and robberies gone bad.
Clay allison?
I'm sorry but I love calloway oddly after I saw his odd speed and skill I just couldn't say he isnt legendary.... his character sadly resonates with mine
And theres Frank M. Canton who is practically a red dead protag himself
Nothing is better than watching a 25 min video of the mysteries of Red Dead 2 with crisps
I’m always eating sausage and meatballs when I watch videos about Jim Boy Calloway and the other gunslingers, but now I’m eating cornflakes, so this sucks! Good video as always.

They shot at me so I shot back at them
If you antagonize Flaco's fellow Del Lobos instead of greeting them, they don't initiate a battle, they just let you talk to Flaco, and after you kill him they all just scatter.
If you read the biography on the Del Lobo Gang, it specifically says that loyalty isn't something that they consider important and it's seen in this scene.
Fun fact if you complete the entire stranger mission as Arthur during the epilogue beginning cut scene Jack Marston mentions reading Boy Callaway's biography

Weird. When I went to Flacco Hernandez, I didn’t “discover” the Del Lobo gang (that I remember).
HereIsWisdom 1318 me neither on 1st play through, neither 2nd... but on 3rd yes 😂
It’s because you didn’t kill any of them when you did it. That’s why I always antagonize them, then shoot one after they run away
Noamias I had to kill them; there was a bunch outside the cabin.
HereIsWisdom 1318 if you threat them they let you walk there peacefully
"What were they like, then? Those days they all talk about"
"Same as now, I guess. Only longer ago"
That's a really good line that frankly applies to every age, not just to the Wild West.
"I even killed rocks. And I killed 'em good." -Emmet Granger
What an absolute chad
This why I kinda believe the "Red is Uncle" theory people throw around. It makes a lot more sense if you consider that Red was a folk hero gunslinger who likely did none of the things people said he did, disappeared, and had a legacy attached to him after the fact by a dime store novel about his life that was written by someone else, just like Jim Calloway. Red is the larger-than-life figure, Uncle is the shadow of that person.
It's insane that 3 of these dudes were absolutely blasted when you duel them and they STILL draw like they do. Even Calloway, who I expected to be a joke fake-out only to get Arthur's skull perforated five times in a row, makes it seem like he WAS a great gunslinger and maybe he's drinking to forget some things instead
8:10 I miss the healthy Arthur man.....
"Caved into Arthurs threats"
I mean wouldn't you, the man's terrifying when he needs to be.
I'd rather read a book about Black Belle then little boy Calloway really.
Jericho Jim but black belle ain’t interested in books
"i took a carriage to save time" *CUTS TO 8 YEARS LATER*
He was still the fastest compared to the other gunslingers. Flaco Hernandez was also pretty fast and his little trick of jumping sideway and drawing up a sawed off shotgun if you doesn't kill him right on the first bullet during the duel is pretty badass. Emmett Granger have balls to do a revolver duel armed with a throwing knife and he was also pretty fast especially considering the fact that he used a damn throwing knife....
Yeah, if Im not wrong Jim Boy Calloway has the fastest drawing speed in the game for an npc meaning that the only way of winning is cheating or at the very best it will end as a draw (both you and him death)

I think it's crazy that so many of these missions could be finished as Morgan or Marston, lotta work for all those voice lines
If you antagonize the del lobos you don’t have to fight them
The reason some of these duels are so hard is because of ammo type. It seems anything other than regular bullets breaks duels a bit and gives you no reaction time.
I feel as if killing Granger on the spot, made me felt like he deserved it.
I believe honour and dishonour did and does exist, both back then and now. Although I'm sure many a story is romanticisation of the survivors by them and their peers.
If you are new to this game I'd definitely recommend doing the three male gunslingers immediately. They give you some very good and one of a kind guns. Flaco also has a treasure map in his shack.
There's also a harmonica inside Granger's house that will be useful in the future.
Something I just realized, was replaying the game again and went to the doctor to rob the secret business for quick money and shot him during it in an accidental Dead Eye lock to the head. He of course was bandaged and put back in his shop. And then after he was fully healed and I went back to his shop he said. “You watch yourself, the name Calloway means something round here.” The Valentine doctor is related to Jim Boy Calloway!
Levin should have called John to help him make a book about Arthur
you know you can do this whole questline as Arthur right also you can find a newspaper as Arthur after completing this quest that corroborates a lot of what they tell you like the whole backstory behind midnight and the very real atrocities granger committed or was apart of plus the rest of them
Fun fact you can leave emmet granger and flaco alive if you shoot them in the leg then knock them out
You failed to mention that each of the outlaws that you kill has their own special gun you can pick up.
I have a challenge for you: a video explaining how the van der linde gang could have succeeded in the game after every chapter, let me explain:
You need to say what the gang could have done to have success in their plans after each chapter, for example: chapter 1, how could the gang succeeded after the blackwater fail? chapter 2: how could they have succeeded after the events of chapter one, etc.
Winning condition: the gang gets enough money and vanish (either to the west or to TAHITI, your choice)
Losing Condition: The gang gets destroyed, arrested or gets any members killed (i won't let you got the easy way out and sacrifice Micah, even if he deserves it)
You can be honorable or not, you choice.
What do you think? could the gang have succeeded in every chapter? or it was doomed to fail since the beggining?
Ricardo Magalhães I agree although I don't see how they could've succeeded after chapter 4
@@superrknight1858 if after they rescued jack they have gone straight for the bank instead of the failed trolley station and the revenge against bronte they would have a lot of money and no pinkertons in the city already

@@number1semetaryfan i would love to see him dead, but hey, that would be too easy
He didn’t mention it, but in Emmet Granger’s house you can find a harmonica which fills Sadie's request for it in chapter 3. You can also just go to the house and get it so you don’t have to wait for the quest.
With Flaco, if you antagonize the del Lobos, they dont kill you but if you defuse they do.
I’ve redone this mission recently and for flaco Hernandez you can threaten his men or something like that and you don’t have to fight them
Been well over a year I’ve done like 5 play throughs (currently on 6 1st 100% trying my best) and I never bat a eye on these scenes BRILLIANT!
Oh and great Video BOAH
Oscar_J Juarez nice. Working on my second 100%. Damn gambler and herbalist challenges suck!!!
JLash gambler is a damn joke 🤦♂️
I think it’s cool that Arthur saying he has no name is a reference to Clint Eastwood the man with no name.
What i like about the little gunslinger stories and cards is that they have interesting stories and such. Me being a huge western nerd, i am fascinated by the stories and gunslinger missions like i am with real life gunslingers in the past. And they make them seem like real life gunslingers with interesting events and such. Also, some of them are probably hugely based off of real stores. Like Billy Midnight, it's said that after his slinger days he would perform plays and such like buffallo bill, and Black Belle probably based on Calamity Jane. The aformentioned, and famous, Otis Miller, maybe based on Jesse James. It's so fucking cool that Rockstar did this.
That's weird, I didn't have to fight the Gang members at Flaco's place, I just asked them where he was and talked to him, after I killed him they either ran off or just sat there, I forget which.
I found out in my current playthrough of the game that if you threaten the gang member who demands to know what you're doing there, they'll say "ok, if it's just questions, he's in that cabin." and let you just walk up. Then after, when you will the duel against him, they all run away yelling about how they aren't gonna die for him
Of the 5 gunslingers you meet, when they were in their prime the two deadliest in a straight up duel would arguably have been Midnight and Calloway. Their speed and accuracy are insane and they're both old, drunk, and rusty. Hell, midnight is damn near insane. Granger is nothing more than a loudmouth with a temper. Flaco is simply tricky with his unpredictability. Black Belle is practically chaos incarnate and would rather blow shit up than duel straight.
Calloway so fast bro 💀 Cant even imagine him in his prime since he was old and drunk and yet the only way to win as a prime arthur morgan or prime john is by cheating
Granger kills you with a throw knife if you don't draw quick enough so lol
@@eduparada970 you can win without cheating.
I think this character was based on English Bob from Unforgiven. It’s pretty parallel with the writer following around, not knowing he’s a coward.
Aw, it feels so weird doing it as John and not Arthur hahah, his reaction to Slim's death is just so much funnier haha, he's stoked
22:43 gets me every time
If you talk to the person in Annesburg during chapter 6, when he says Slim Grant is up at Beaver Hollow hunting down wanted outlaws, could he be referencing the Van der Linde gang?
Evan Smith Ironically he's up at Beaver Hollow, which is the Murfree Brood's hideout, but the outlaws he is hunting are not Murfrees
I think most the gun slingers were also suffering from PTSD, the likely acted out of fear and live with a lot of guilt. They are probably terrified making the same mistake twice or becoming the victim of something like them.
For new or returning players who suffer from long term amnesia this mission is the earliest and best way to get a camera that your player can use. I didn’t know about this during my first play through so it was a pleasant surprise.
Actually in Grangers house, that is where you get the harmonica for Sadie Adler. And a can of baked beans lol.
U like how you added the bandolier like from rdr1
Edit: I wish they gave us landon ricketts instead of all these gunslingers.
Maybe any plans with him were scrapped after the actor died
The only one I liked out of the gun slingers was flaco
Might not of worked cause he was the one who might of shot John in the Blackwater massacre and with most missions you can carry them on with John in the epilogue so him meeting landed rickets wouldn't make sense since you meet him for the first time in rdr1
I wish Arthur had given the writer his name, then he could have had a little portion of his (more than mildly romanticized) history immortalized. He was by far the best gunslinger around, and he deserved to go down in history for it. Just adds to the tragedy, I suppose.
Actually if you keep your weapons hostlered when you go after flaco the men will let you pass after some dialogue but you still kill flaco.
In Grangers Hoggery there’s the harmonica for Sadie. Just wanted to let anyone who was looking for that know :)
"In a world where only survival of the fittest is important, honor is irrelevant" - great quote! I feel like I'm going to cite it periodically.
Did you know that "Nobody" is actually the name of the fastest gun in the west who never gets credit for it in the film "My Name is Nobody" starring Terrence Hill and Henry Fonda. Maybe Rockstar was using a play on words here.
“He once killed 14 men”
Arthur: rookie numbers
How tough are you?
*”I killed rocks.”*
I’m always eating sausage and meatballs when I watch videos about Jim Boy Calloway and the other gunslingers, but now I’m eating cornflakes, so this sucks! Good video as always.
In a way all this gunslingers also represent what happened to the Van der Lin gang. They split up and all of them tried to live a normal life only for their past to catch up to them,
- Flaco Hernández: Bill Williamson
- Black Belle: Sadie Adler
- Jim “Boy” Calloway: Dutch Van der Lin
- Eugene: Javier Escuela
- Billy Midnight: Uncle/Micah
The continuation of this mission in Saint Deni, is playable as Arthur infact most continuations started by Arthur are finishable as Arthur
Levin: last of the gunslingers
Me: black belle is still alive lol
You don’t have to kill the del lobos
Edit: I think it was just the npc who let me “talk” to the boss because the second time I had to kill them
this is probably my favourite side mission because of all the unique revolvers you get from the gunslingers
You can actually beat all gunslingers, including Billy Midnight and Boy Calloway fairly, but you gotta be hella quick
