You hyphenate the words acting as an adjective, I e. Two-gun kid, not two gun-kid

One might also hyphenate compound nouns. Depending on context, "two gun-kids" could be correct--though it seems unlikely.

Also, in this case you should use e.g. (not i.e.). No big deal though, I knew what you meant.
