So far the consensus is you can take just about any idea and make it steampunk. For gunslinging you might re-watch the Wild Wild West movie, which had some steampunk elements.
You can also google terms such as "steampunk western" and look at the images, then create your own look from the ideas that inspire you This image from Dallas Vintage Shop.
Curious as to anyone else doing western influenced steampunk, as I am currently working on a western persona.
