‘Lightening Jack Bonner' was not looking to enhance his reputation as a fast gunman so when Billy Quaid challenged him, he admonished the young gunman whose sole aim was to prove his own prowess with a six-gun. “I only draw my six-gun for money. I get paid to shoot my gun and shooting you would pay me nothing. Tell you what though, you scare up fifty dollars and give it to me, then I'll draw against you.” Bonner, a former Lawman and known to be fast on the draw, had turned to bounty hunting for the higher pay. Four Crossroads' Businessmen, looking for a way to bring business to the dying town, overheard Bonner's offer. They concoct a deal for Bonner to draw against all comers for a fifty-dollar fee. Bonner accepts the offer, figuring it easier than chasing after men for bounty, of which he was growing tired. He also stood to make a lot of money on side bets, provided he out drew the challengers. Soon after the once quiet town comes to life when a flood of reporters looking for a story storm into town. Gunmen seeking revenge, for Bonner's past law enforcement or to enhance their own six-gun reputation begin to show. The town's residents become overworked and contestants bicker amongst themselves. Things come to a head when Bonner announces an end to the contest but will do one last draw….
