Anecdotes
The film loosely represents the real Arizona Rangers which was formed on 21 March 1901 and modeled after the Texas Rangers. They were disbanded in 1909 for political reasons shortly before Arizona became the 48th state in 1912. They were reconstituted in 1957 and as of 2021 continue to serve as a civilian auxiliary police force in the state.

Gaffes
When Yeager goes to dive out of the window of the express office, he tosses his gun out the window ahead of him. But, in the next shot from outside, there is no gun visible on the ground and he is bare-handed running away from the building. He then dives behind a water trough for cover and suddenly has a gun again. And in typical "B" movie fashion he is seen firing at least seven shots from a six-shot revolver despite not having a gun belt or any other access to ammunition.

Arizona Legion

Wills Whiskey Joe , leader of the ruthless Dutton gang, is the most feared man in Arizona, robbing stagecoaches and killing anyone in his way. When the county court fails to bring him to justice, it's up to Boone Yeager and his 'Arizona Rangers', an undercover group appointed by the Governor, to rid the land of this menace....

George O' Brien plays Boone Yeager, who is cleverly introduced as a hell-raiser and a lawbreaker, but later on we realise he's a Ranger, out to corral a bunch of robbers and learn who the secret leader is. The latter part lacks the intrigue needed, the focus is on a fast-paced plot and some lively spurts of action. It's a passable enough shoot em up.
