@ Dakota. Really simple way to get good weapons as early as Level one. GANG HIDEOUTS! Bolt Action in Tumbleweed, High Power in Fort Azul (or Blackwater police) and Mauser at Twin Rocks. At the very least you can grab the Mauser from Twin Rocks, and that's better than the HP Pistol IMO because it's got a higher ammo capacity, often in Free Roam dust ups, it's who ever has to re-load first. So the Evans Repeater (Pikes Basin) and Mauser are all you really need.
