Will Munny’s Most Brutal Weapons in Unforgiven: The Spencer Rifle & The Double-Barrel Shotgun! (Part Two)
Most people remember William Munny for the bodies he leaves behind — but the real reason he feels so terrifying in Unforgiven is the brutal way these two weapons change the entire mood of the film.
