      When Coker empties his scatter-gun at the pile of guns thrown into the street by Russ Nevers and his men after the standoff in town, a closeup of the guns as they are being hit by the scatter-gun blast shows them sitting in a poorly-concealed dug-up area of the street, and the blast doesn't blow the pile of guns away from Coker, instead it just sends a cloud of dirt straight up, showing that it's just a special effects blast.

      [Utah, Rip and the townsmen defeat the vigilantes in the climatic gunfight]

      Angie Kinyon: Oh, Utah. Are you all right?

      Utah Blaine: Yeah. I wanna go out and see what a town looks like when it grows up.

      Rip Coker: That's what this town's had - growin' pains. Now what are you going to do for excitement?

    What?! Vigilantes are apparently a bad thing?!
    When the story begins, Utah (Rory Calhoun) comes upon a lynching party hanging Joe Neal. Although Utah has no idea what's going on, such 'justice' disgusts him and he saves the dying man as soon as the would-be killers leave. That is when Neal informs Utah that local jerks are trying to force out the various ranchers by using a 'vigilante committee' to enforce the law....though there is no law...just greed.

    Inexplicably, although Utah Blaine has a infamous reputation as a gunman, he's the guy trying to restore law and order to this town. And, this means he needs to face down the baddies...possibly all on his own...possibly with some help if he can make some friends in this awful town.

    This plot is about the most common you'll find in old westerns, particularly B-westerns. I am not so much complaining as saying it is all very familiar. After all, although familiar, Calhoun is very good in the film and I think his westerns tend to be underrated. In other words, they took an ordinary sort of plot but made it just a bit better due to the acting. Worth seeing.

    By the way, if you do watch, note the final big battle in the streets of the town. Somehow with 3824 shots fired at the men on horseback, not a single horse was shot...even by the guy firing a shotgun at the men on horseback! Also note that the during Blaine's shootout at the end with the big baddie, neither apparently need to re-load their revolvers!
