Delusions
Is it just me or was Harlan's only delusion the fact that he thought he was a cowboy? Because I didn't see any other ones.

I dont think so.. His whole thinking and acting was one big delusion. For example the part before he shot her. He really thought she was coming with him even though she was crying and telling him to go..
But i dont think that really was the point, him being a cowboy. I think he became one because his father was a jew and he left him because he didnt want to be one himselve.
