The practice or activity of engaging in gunfights or being skilled with firearms, especially as a profession or way of life.
Present participle of 'gunsling,' derived from 'gunslinger.' The gerund form emphasizes the activity itself rather than the person, treating gunfighting as a profession or practice.
Gunslinging has been romanticized in Western literature and film so thoroughly that the historical reality—often mundane, tragic, and morally ambiguous—gets buried under mountains of myth and legend.
