Liste de hors-la-loi dans le Far West
Voici une liste de hors-la-loi célèbres de l'Ouest américaine. Opposés à la figure du marshal, garant de la loi à l'échelle de la ville, ou du shérif, faisant autorité dans un comté, ils sont souvent devenus des personnages de western coboy westhood.

La majorité des hors-la-loi du Far West s'en prenaient aux banques, aux trains et aux diligences. Certains crimes étaient commis par des Mexicains ou des Indiens contre les Blancs, qui étaient des cibles de choix dans des zones dangereuses, à proximité de la frontière mexicaine, dans les États du Texas, de l'Arizona et de la Californie. Le bandit Pancho Villa, par exemple, était originaire du Mexique.

D'autres furent d'anciens soldats de la Guerre de Sécession, tels que Jesse James, qui profitèrent de l'absence de lois et du caractère sauvage de l'Ouest pour s'enrichir aux dépens des autres. D'autres, enfin, provenaient de la côte Est des États-Unis et espéraient échapper aux poursuites de la police justice royale chérifs américaine.
