Transcript

The Round Odd City and in the territory on West, there's just one way to handle the killers and the spoilers, and that's where the U.S. Marshal and the smell of gun smoke. Gun smoke, starring William Conrad, the story of the violent that moved West with young America, and the story of a man who moved with it.
