Dunno why it came back with this Rifleman episode but here ya go. Lucas gets dragged behind a horse and has his rifle stolen, brings out a ruthless side not often seen.

Cool Bible reference too (couldn’t do that today).

The episode was directed by Sam Peckinpah hisself, who eleven years later bring us The Wild Bunch.


Awesome

BEST top 2 TV Series by far

Starts every episode with 12 shots before the bad guy hits the ground.....at least that's how I interpret it.

Teaches his boy Bible lessons all the time and raises him right. How many times I say at the end, "That'll preach!"

Best wholesome family entertainment.
Usually a great script, acting, direction that rivals good movies.....
