Andrew L. "Buckshot" Roberts (c. 1831 – April 5, 1878) was an American buffalo hunter, frontiersman and cowboy known for his last stand against the Lincoln County Regulators during the Gunfight of Blazer's Mills near Lincoln, New Mexico.
Although the majority of famous gunfights that took place in the Old West have been heavily embellished, the fight at Blazer's Mills is one of the few where reliable sources have described a feat of profound ability and toughness. Despite his toughness, Roberts died at Blazer's Mills, following a shoot-out with the Regulators, who believed that Roberts had been involved in the murder of their boss, John Tunstall. They famously included Henry McCarty (Billy the Kid), who played a part in that fight. It was, however, Regulator Charlie Bowdre who fired the fatal shot which killed Roberts, although Roberts shot dead one Regulator, Dick Brewer, at the same location, and wounded several others.
