Gunsmoke
Hired Gunslinger In A Lawless Land!
A straightforward Western about a hired gunslinger who switches sides to help a rancher defend his cattle drive against ruthless antagonists.
Kittridge is hired by the villans but turns to defend the rancher Saxon after learning the true situation. Kittrige wins Saxon's ranch with a cut of the cards but Saxon has other reasons for loosing the gamble. Telford and Lake try everything from bushwacking to setting a wildfire to stop the Saxon/Kittridge herd of cattle from reaching the railhead.
