Bill Longley (Rory Calhoun), a Civil War Veteran whose reputation of being the fastest gun in the west preceded him, roamed across Texas from town to town, not looking for trouble, but trouble always seemed to find him.
As well as being a fast gun, Bill was a loyal and devoted friend, and a mortal enemy to those who broke the law or harassed the people who he felt close to.
