119's "Armored" Edge

Melee: Marston's Hunting Knife has a longer blade, giving it the edge.

Revolvers: Marston's LeMat takes this for its superior capacity, as well as the underbarrel shotgun, giving it a total of ten shots.

Rifles: The Winchester has a larger magazine capacity than the Spencer, and also pulls back the hammer when the action is cycled, unlike the Spencer, which required the action and hammer to be cycled separately.

Special 1: The Colt Revolving Rifle has more ammunition, however, it was prone to malfunction, specifically one particularly catastrophic malfunction known as "chain fire", in which all six chambers fired at once, often blowing off the user's hand. The Double barrel take the edge simply as its less likely to injure the user.

Special 2: The Snyder is a gun. The lasso is not a gun. Need I say more?

Overall Winner: While Marston has superior weapon, Ned has the important X-Factor of his bulletproof armor and helmets, not to mention Ned's skill in close combat. Winner: Ned Kelly.
