Alec Longmire (Rory Calhoun) used to be a gunman but he's sick of the life and plans on hanging up his guns and living a quiet life. However, when he comes into a new town, he notices that the sheriff (Dean Jagger) is in way over his head and Alec agrees to become the new deputy. It soon becomes obvious that there are two factions in town...one led by Henshaw (Robert Middleton) and the other ranchers who don't want to see him drive them all out!

The story here is very familiar and I am sure I've seen many dozen films where a guy gives up his guns....only to go back to them. I've seen even more westerns where a big bad boss (like Henshaw) trying to control everyone and drive the ranchers off their lands. But despite being VERY familiar, the acting is very good and production values nice...making it worth seeing.
