''[[For a Few Dollars More]]'' is the least remembered movie in [[Sergio Leone]]'s [[Dollars Trilogy]]. It is the second, ''[[A Fistful of Dollars]]'' being the first and ''[[The Good, the Bad and the Ugly]]'' being the third.
Line 8:
The Man With No Name (nicknamed "Monco" or "Manco", respectively Italian and Spanish slang for "missing one hand", because he does nearly everything with his left hand in order to keep his right hand free to draw and fire) and Colonel Mortimer, a skillful [[Bounty Hunter]], are both hunting the famed gang leader El Indio. The Man With No Name is motivated by money; the Colonel is motivated by [[Revenge]]. After the two bounty hunters [[Let's You and Him Fight|clash]], they put aside their differences and team up to capture Indio. As part of their plan, Manco infiltrates Indio's gang by busting one of Indio's friends out of prison. However, the plan does not work out as hoped.

=== ''[[For a Few Dollars More]]'' provides examples of: ===
 
* [[Awesome but Impractical]]: Col. Mortimer's Buntline Special. Its longer barrel gives Mortimer an edge in distance, meaning he can wait out of a pistol's normal range and line up shots, but that same long barrel also prevents him from quickdrawing it, a disadvantage in some of the situations he finds himself in. He carries a derringer up his sleeve for such emergencies.
** It was somewhat practical for those who preferred a pistol grip as opposed to the lever action.
