I love clocks, especially cuckoo style clocks and have already added several ideas for them on the HB. This is another one.
As the name suggests, this one features a cliché style cowboy themed clock face, but instead of a cuckoo springing out on the hour, an arm emerges and fires off a cap-gun style
pistol. This results in a loud bang, lots of smoke and that characteristic smell all cap-guns make.
Of course someone will make a version that features a real gun firing real bullets, in which case a license is required and a sandbag organised for the wall facing this dastardly variation.

And the six-shooter empties at High Noon every day! [+] |
|

Camp Teacup needs two; one for the Saloon/Dining hall, and one for the Library/Study/Billiards Room! |
|
| |
Both six-shooters, presumably, or one twelve- shooter. |

Perhaps a similar clock on the opposite wall, timed a few seconds late... |

High noon could be a serious event. |

"This pendulum ain't big enough fer the two of us..." |

[whatrock], brilliant! But have them electrically (or mechanically) linked (instead of one "slow") & alternate the firing. |
|
| |
"Is it six o'clock already?"
"Well to tell you the truth, in all this excitement, I kind of lost track." |

I like to think it comes out at around three minutes to high noon and just stands there. Squinting into the sun. Absolutely still. Maybe a small twitch around the mouth, a small movement in the fingers. |
