For non-Exotic gear, Tex Mechanica seems to be including the model/variant number in the name of the weapon (e.g. [[Silvered Maverick Mk. 41]], [[Primed Big Sky Mk. 48]]); there are a few instances of the same weapon coming in different variants, like [[Outlander Mk. 26]] and [[Outlander Mk. 38]]. Much of the gear shares the signature Wild West theme in their naming and flavour texts - be it [[Stampede Mk.32]], [[Bandit Mk. 24]] or [[Copperhead Mk. 32]]. Amongst all known Tex Mechanica weapons, [[Hand Cannon]]s and [[Shotgun]]s definitely prevail.
