Plot

In the sleepy frontier town of Gila Springs, law and order are shattered when Sheriff Frank Hammond falls victim to the ruthless guns of Ace Alton's gang in a savage bank heist. With the town now vulnerable to the creeping tendrils of corruption, Marshal Jim Hammond calls upon the audacious Range Busters, a trio of charismatic cowboys - Dusty King, Davy Sharpe, and Alibi Terhune - to restore justice to the beleaguered town. As they ride into Gila Springs, the Range Busters find themselves unwelcome guests, facing hostility from Ed Cole, the enigmatic head of the local vigilantes, who, unbeknownst to them, masterfully manipulates the town's chaos from behind the scenes as the true leader of the outlaws. Despite the veiled threats, the fearless trio finds solace in their old friend, Rancher Mike Rand and his daughter, Mary. However, they also encounter an unexpected foe in Mary's brother, Jeff, who has unknowingly become a pawn in Cole's nefarious schemes. When a shot meant for Davy reveals Jeff's misguided allegiance, a whirlwind of action ensues, culminating in a fierce brawl in the town café. With Jeff in their custody, the Range Busters unravel the twisted web of deceit spun by Cole. Armed with this newfound knowledge and aided by the town's banker Harrison, they devise a daring plan to ensnare Cole and his band of renegade vigilantes, aiming to cleanse Gila Springs of its corruption once and for all. In "Trail Riders", the 18th installment of Monogram's captivating "Range Buster" series, loyalties are tested, secrets are unearthed, and the courage of three cowboys is put on the line in a desperate bid to restore peace to a town under siege. This is a tale of dusty trails and deceit, an evocative portrait of the wild, untamed West where justice has a price, and only the bravest dare to ride the trail.
