 Ranger Bob Houston(Bob Steele) is riding shotgun on a stage driven by Silver(Silver Tip Baker) and carrying a valuable shipment when it is attacled by Hash-Knife Brooks(George Hayes) and his gang, including Apache Joe(Greg Whitespear), a sadistic half-breed and Gomez(Jose/Joe Dominguez),who vies with Brooks for leadership of the outlaws.Silver is killed and Bob wounded in the arm.Bob makes it back to Ranger headquarters and is told by his father, Ranger Captain Dan Houston(John Elliott)that they can officially do nothing as the Rangers have been disbanded by the New Mexico state government.After a farewell dinner, with rangers played by Glenn Strange, Chcuk Baldra and Cactus Mack singing "Auld Lang Syne",they all go their own ways, with Bob going back to college.A few months later, Bob learns that Jim Reynolds(Horace B. Carpenter), the former head of the Rangers and father of the girl Bob loves,Barbara Reynolds(Gertrude Messinger),has been murdered.Also in the interim, Brooks had been captured but had escaped and is suspected of being responsible for the killing. Buck Lawland(Tex O Neill), a former Ranger, spots Apache Joe in town and trails him but Joe sees Buck and kills him.Bob and Barbara are riding in the area, see the killing, and Bob sends Barbara back to town while he takes after Joe. The Rangers have all banded back together and they track down the gang, climaxing in a massive battle between the Rangers and the outlaws, while Bob saves Barbara, who has been captured, from a quicksand pit, after Slim(Al St. John)shoots Brooks, which provides the answer to the trivia question of in what film did "Fuzzy" kill "Gabby"?
