Synopsis for "Dealer in Death"

The Two-Gun Kid is riding when he suddenly comes across some dead Native Americans. Investigating the scene he finds that they were using junked guns that blew up in their hands, killing them. Suddenly he is ambushed by a lone Native warrior who accuses Two-Gun of killing his people. However when the warrior tries to shoot his gun, it also misfires, blowing up in his hands and killing him. The Two-Gun Kid vows to get to the bottom of things and figure out what happened.

He takes the guns to a well known gunsmith in the town of Bullet Creek who examines the guns and informs the Kid that the weapons were heavily worn down and in poor condition. This draws the Two-Gun Kid to the conclusion that the Natives were murdered by being sold poorly maintained guns. The kid thanks the gunsmith and his son for their help and leaves.

Not far away at the local trading post a man named Hank and his men are putting on a sales pitch to a group of Native American warriors who seek to purchase guns. The Natives are sold and agree to buy the guns but Hank tells them that they cannot test fire the weapons in town. Before the warriors can leave, Two-Gun Kid arrives and accuses Hank and his men of selling them faulty guns. When Hank's men try to silence the Kid, he quickly draws his Dragoons and mows them down. When Hank confronts the Kid himself, he is knocked out by the gunslining hero who then forces one of Hank's surviving men to test fire one of the guns. As expected the gun explodes in the man's hand, proving to the Natives that they were being fooled into buying bad weapons. When the braves leave, the Two-Gun Kid opens fire on Hank's supply of guns an ammo, destroying them in an explosion.

Two-Gun then goes back to the home of the gunsmith and his son to thank them for their help when suddenly Hank and his men charge the house to get revenge. Being pretty good at guns themselves, the gunsmith and his son lend Two-Gun a hand in defending the home, mowing down Hank and his men in short order.

Synopsis for "Two-Gun Kid"

The Two-Gun Kid is passing through the plains when he spots a branding party and decides to go and say hello. However the men are jumpy and tell the Kid to get lost. The Kid notices that they are changing the brands on the cattle but decides that it is none of his business and leaves the men to their work. The branders -- really rustlers -- decide to silence Two-Gun before he can tell anyone what he saw, and as the Kid rides off he suspects that they might try. Sure enough the rustlers attempt to ambush the Kid, but he is faster at the draw then they are and easily guns them down. Finding the stolen cattle, the Two-Gun Kid decides to return them to the proper owner.

Meanwhile, not far away on the Wyatt ranch, Mr. Wyatt, his daughter and their ranch hand Gannon are riding along the property. Just as Mr. Wyatt is discussing hiring more ranch hands to protect their cattle, the Two-Gun Kid arrives with the stolen cattle. He explains that the "ranch hands" they had hired were really rustlers trying to switch the brands on the cattle.

Despite having the evidence to prove his claims, Gannon balks at this until Mr. Wyatt sees the changed brands for himself. Learning that the crooked ranch hands were killed by the Two-Gun Kid, Wyatt thanks him and offers him a job to work on his Lazy W Ranch. The Kid refuses telling Wyatt that he should have a talk with Gannon about his selection of ranch hands.

That night in Twin City's Lucky Strike Saloon, the Two-Gun Kid watches as Wyatt's daughter arrives with some of the hands from the Lazy W. They confront the Kid and try to give him a hard time for making their boss look bad. When the Kid insults them, they try to start a fight but the Kid is fast at draw with his guns and kills two of them. Miss Wyatt then chastises the Kid for being a "ruthless killer" who only thinks with his guns. This tongue lashing upsets the Kid, who was only defending himself.

The next morning the Kid decides to go down to the Lazy W Ranch and take up Mr. Wyatt's job offer, and to prove to Miss Wyatt that he is not a cold blooded killer turns over his guns to her telling her that he vows not to raise his guns in defense again. That night, the Two-Gun Kid can't bring himself to sleep and notices that there is a light on next door at 4 o'clock in the morning. Sneaking up to the window he spies on a meeting between Gannon and his men who are plotting to steal the cattle, and send one of their men to eliminate the Kid.

However, when Shorty Dixon arrives in the Two-Gun Kid's room he finds the bed empty. Realizing that he must have heard them and went to warn Mr. Wyatt they decide to silence them all once and for all. As they charge on the Wyatt ranch house, Two-Gun Kid stands outside ready to defend the Wyatt's even though he has sworn not to use his guns. Horrified by the implications of the Two-Gun Kid's vows, Miss Wyatt takes back what she said about the Kid and gives him back his guns. The Kid then goes to work, mowing down Gannon and his men with his golden Dragoons, killing them all and saving the ranch.
