From what I know,

   With the exception of the Gun, you can have all items equipped in front of you as long as they are unique - meaning, you can't have 2 or more of the same kind based on their tag name (ex: 2 Barrels).  So you can have all the horses.

   This does happen in the real Wild West, where a Cowboy has more than one horse at a time.  The TV series Young Riders, a fictionalized account of the start of the Pony Express, showed the riders usually having 2 horses - in this way they switch to the "fresh" horse, when the one they're riding on is tired.

In an FAQ I read, it said that you can have both horses (Mustang and Appaloosa) at the same time, since they count as different named cards.

Trivia time

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volcanic_Repeating_Arms

"While the Volcanic Repeating Arms Company was short lived, its descendants, Smith & Wesson and Winchester Repeating Arms Company, became major firearms manufacturers."


http://www.winchestercollector.org/guns/volcanic.shtml
"Two advantages the Volcanics had was a rapid rate of fire and its ammunition was waterproof. However the "Rocket-ball" ammunition was too underpowered to be considered a hunting weapon or a man stopper. In addition, the Volcanic design suffered from problems such as gas leakage from around the breech, multiple charges going off at the same time, and misfires. Misfired rounds would have to be tapped out with a cleaning rod as the gun had no means of extraction."

Silvano Sorrentino at daVinci Games has passed along details of an error in some copies of Bang! The Bullet and the new edition of Bang! Dodge City. The card “Rag Time” mistakenly has the same effect as “Springfield” – that is, stating that you can discard another card with Rag Time in order to shoot any player – when in fact “Rag Time” should allow you to discard it and another card to let you take a card from any player.

Says Sorrentino, “This will be fixed in the most recent editions of the game. If you happen to have the wrong card in your box (the one shown here), you can send us mail containing an envelope with your address written on it, along with one IRC (International Reply Coupon) so that we can send you the correct card from the Italian warehouse.” The address to write to is:

Sorry for reviving an old thread.

I played Bang! The Bullet with my friends just recently. He liked it so much that he is thinking of getting Bang! The Bullet for his family.

Does anyone know where to purchase this in the Philippines?

I got mine abroad and I'm not planning to go abroad anytime soon.

I saw a copy in Neutral Grounds Glorietta last December. You can ask if they still have it at 819 5800.
