English term

punk gun

English to Spanish Other Slang
Hola, colegas:

Estoy traduciendo una serie de vaqueros. Un ladrón hirió a un sheriff en una pierna, y ahora éste siente vergüenza porque le dieron. Otro compañero dice: "No tiene por qué sentirse así. (El ladrón) es un punk gun".

¿Saben qué quiere decir "punk gun"?

Mil gracias, como siempre.

Saludos desde Caracas

Hi, ptorres. Could you give the context as it appears in English? Even if it is a script. It would be helpful.
