Anecdotes
The small pistol shown near the beginning of the film appears to be a Remington Model 95 Double Derringer, which indeed fired the .41 short cartridge. The original cost was eight dollars, and the company made 132,000 of them from 1866 to 1935, a remarkable 70 year production run for a firearm.

Gaffes
About 10 minutes into the movie when the Marady gang ties up Randolph Scott, they tie his legs right at the knees as clearly visible when they pick him up. But in the next several scenes as he lays on the ground, there is no rope around his knees.

Citations
Larry Delong: [interior monologue] I could have taken that shotgun away from Lewellyn and wrapped it around his fat ears, but it might have meant shooting some misguided people who might have thought the right thing was to keep me in town. There was only one person left who might help me: Fritz, who ran a dirty little cantina which few self-respecting people ever entered. He'd do anything for a fast dollar.

YOU'D DO IT FOR HIM, OF COURSE I WOULD...!

A Randolph Scott Western from the 1954. Scott plays a stagecoach guard who rides shotgun as their transport is about to enter their next stop. What Scott doesn't know is that his sworn enemy is going to lure him from his duties (Scott has vowed revenge in voice over for a past crime) so that an elaborate heist is attempted. Working again w/Andre De Toth (House of Wax), this Scott vehicle is unique in the fact it almost plays like a Western noir where narration & a weird story structure keeps the barely ninety minute feature interesting & quite watchable. Look for Charles Bronson (billed under his birth name Charles Buchinsky) as a member of the villain's gang.
