The Quick Gun

Clint Cooper (Audie Murphy, To Hell and Back) is a gunslinger who returns to his hometown after a two year absence with the hopes that his sweetheart, schoolteacher Helen Reed (Merry Anders, Tickle Me), has waited for him. The townsfolk aren't happy to have him in their midst, even though he helps fight off a gang of outlaws led by a former gun-slinging pal. Can Clint win back his girl, the trust of his neighbors, and settle down to a life of peace and quiet on his own land or will he live long enough to even have the chance? Sidney Salkow (The Great Sioux Massacre, Blood on the Arrow) directs this action-packed western, photographed in Cinemascope and presented in its full, widescreen aspect ratio, which also features James Best (Sounder), Ted de Corsia (The Killing) and Walter Sande (A Place in the Sun).
