Joining Masterson in his efforts to clean up a lawless town are a couple of locals: Masterson's old chum Billy Burn and landowner Allen Harper (Robert Ryan).

05/17/2015 Corny ranchers vs. farmers western. Randolph Scott lays Bat Masterson, who's the new sheriff of Liberal, Kansas. Anne Jeffreys plays the love interest, Robert Ryan an uncharacteristic nice guy and George "Gabby'' Hayes plays, what else, a cantankerous old man. See more 05/13/2015 good western with randolph scott u know u get ur monies worth. See more 06/25/2013 A steady but familiar story of good triumphing over evil in a lawless frontier town.
