Pistol Harvest

In the Old West, two abandoned children, Johnny and Felice, wander the desert seeking help. Cattle rancher Moran finds Felice and takes her in, gifting a gold piece engraved with her name. This rescue marks Felice's entry into Moran's care.

Moran raises Felice to adulthood on his ranch, creating a new family and future for her. The engraved gold coin remains a link to her past.

Fifteen years pass, and Felice has fallen in love with Tim, one of Moran's cowhands. Tim's connection to Moran's life sets the stage for later conflicts.

During a picnic, Chito Rafferty interrupts Tim and Felice to report an attempted cattle theft. Tim and Chito locate two men, Jack and Andy, who claim they are hungry, and Tim offers them some money.

At the local bank, Tim and Chito pick up $30,000 in cash for Moran as payment for cattle. Banker Elias Norton schemes to steal the money and hires Jack and Andy to ambush Tim and Chito.

Norton formalizes the hit, hiring Jack and Andy to ambush Tim and Chito. The plan is set to seize the cash during their ride back.

The ambush fails, and Jack and Andy retreat to a town saloon to report their failure. Tim and Chito remain suspicious of the two men as the investigation continues.

Norton shoots Moran, and the murder is witnessed by Prouty, a bank employee. Tim immediately suspects Jack and Andy of the crime.

Tim, Felice, and Chito discover Moran's body at the ranch. Tim and Chito pursue Jack and Andy; Jack is captured while Andy escapes.

Felice finds a gold coin engraved with Johnny's name and realizes Jack is her brother Johnny. The revelation ties the criminals to Felice's family history.

Andy frees Jack, and the two re-engage Tim in a gunfight; Jack is wounded. Chito and the sheriff pursue Jack and Andy as the pursuit escalates.

Jack eventually admits he and Andy were connected to Norton. Norton sets fire to his warehouse to destroy evidence and flees town with Prouty.

Tim and Chito reach the warehouse in time to extinguish the blaze and find Andy's corpse. They pursue Norton, who is left with Prouty after a standoff at the wagon.

Tim picks up Jack at the Moran ranch and they head to Norton's trial. Chito catches up with them, joking about his romantic tendencies as the pursuit of justice concludes.
