Synopsis

Mail planes carrying valuables are brought down by a device that interferes with their electrical systems. The inventor has fallen under the control of criminals who force him to use it for robbery. A lawman's investigation brings a futuristic weapon into the familiar Western contest between isolated outlaws and the people trying to reach them.
