Billy the Kid first joined the "Regulators," a group of young gunmen involved in the Lincoln County War in New Mexico. The Regulators were aligned with the Tunstall-McSween faction, opposing the powerful Murphy-Dolan faction. This affiliation played a significant role in shaping his notorious reputation as an outlaw.
