Steve Howard arrives at the Diamond T Ranch during a fight between rival families, the O'Briens and the Howards, the latter being helped by Squint Jamison. The Wolverine Kid has a vendetta against Steve due to his father getting shot by Steve's dad during an altercation. The Wolverine Kid kills a man and it looks like Steve Howard did it. But Steve's father recognizes the bullet as coming from the gun owned by the Kid. The Kid and Steve each have one of the ivory handled guns that were used when their fathers feuded many years earlier. Setting out to get the Kid, Steve gets captured by his men.
Johnny Mack Brown is always fun to watch, no matter how average, and this one sticks to formula and is routine. It has a nice pace, rooting' Torin' gunplay and good scenery.

Law of the range
What, no reviews yet?
I tuned into this western because the program guide indicated it would be the 1928 Law of the Range with Joan Crawford, but alas - it was this Universal second feature starring Johnny Mack Brown. Never mind: 1941's Law of the Range is what some people term a 'comfort western', a formulaic but pleasant diversion improved by some surprisingly good musical interludes. Nothing you haven't seen before, but a decent genre effort.
