Hi Donny, 2-5 needs to be done in 2 shots for the badge and it has nothing to do with the metal pole.
If somebody (looking at the Cowboy) would have told me i should have a look at the achievement's name for getting the badge in 2-5 i would have figured it out quicker. So: have a look at the name of the achievement for getting the gunslinger badge in 2-5!
Ahhh....got the badge in 2-5! Ignore the entire right side In level 2-12, I used 2 shots to get the gunslinger badge. Seems like there is a way to use 1. You can get the gunslinger badge in 2-13 using 2 shots and in 2-14 using 3 shots.
Yes, it can be done in 1. You need to get the box to explode in a way that sends some creatures right and some to the left. Look for a spot that gets the bomb to ride on the top left side of the box...
Here’s an updated list of all the levels that can be solved with fewer shots than required for the gunslinger badge: 1-10: 2 1-15: 3 2-3: 2 2-8: 2 2-11: 2 2-12: 1 2-15: 4 3-3: 2 3-5: 4 3-8: 2 3-11: 2 3-13: 3 3-15: 2 3-16: 2 3-18: 2 3-19: 2 4-4: 2 4-7: 2 4-9: 2 4-13: 2 4-15: 2 4-17: 2 4-18: 2 5-3: 1 5-4: 3 5-9: 2 5-10: 1 5-11: 2 5-12: 1 5-13: 2 5-14: 2 5-16: 3

Got 4-11 done in 2 Overall leaderboard would be great as so many levels can be solved under the badge requirement.
