The Outlaw Shot in BETTER CALL SAUL, BREAKING BAD and THE GREAT TRAIN ROBBERY

Edwin Porter's 1903 western THE GREAT TRAIN ROBBERY is best known for a gimmicky closing shot: a bandit aims his pistol at the camera and fires. This trope gets used in dozens of movies, here Martin Scorcese explains why he used the outlaw shot as the coda in GOODFELLAS. 

The outlaw shot is also seen in television -- especially in shows by Vince Gilligan. Here are all the times someone points a gun at the camera in BREAKING BAD and BETTER CALL SAUL.

The gun is slightly off, so this one doesn't count.
Ironically this is the ending of the episode where they rob a train.

Both BREAKING BAD and BETTER CALL SAUL fit into what Scorcese calls "a tradition of outlaws" in America. Did we miss any examples from Vince Gilligan's shows? Maybe something from THE LONE GUNMEN? Tell me in the comments.
