Gunning for Trouble

Warning: Spoilers
Trampas runs foul of a family of comic outlaws and during a card game tries to flush out the weapon used against a man called Thad. Trampas goes to the local gunsmith again to get a favour and later the argument continues in a barn with brothers from the card game.

A stalemate results in one of the men, named Ritter, being detained by Trampas and hidden by a friend however Ritter's family kidnaps Colonel MacKenzie to exchange him for Ritter.

Trampas and Vanessa MacKenzie, the Colonels cousin, discover Ritter is missing at the gunsmith's office and are able to recapture him. Sheriff Abbott comes across Colonel MacKenzie's wagon, which is still on the road from the earlier attack, but he seems to be lagging a long way behind the action.

Trampas needs help from British

Colonel MacKenzie and his niece provide assistance to Trampas in this harrowing tale. Noah Beery provides excellent support. Frank Gorshin plays yet another creepy villain. Episode works well today as a look at the limitations of law enforcement, and how citizens need to be able to protect themselves.
