But his thoughts were really with his partner, Johnny Cato, who was back in Austin, undergoing multiple operations to fix his ruined gun-arm.

They might have settled their money worries, but there was no telling when the Major and his gang of cutthroats would finally track them down and take their revenge.

In the end, the lives of everyone in that remote ranch relied on one man – Johnny Cato, and an all-new, completely remodeled version of his legendary Manstopper pistol!
