Cripple Creek
It's 1893 and gold is being smuggled out of the country. Instead of stealing gold bars, the outlaws are stealing high grade ore, having it smelted, and then having it plated to look like lead. The Government sends agents Bret and Larry who arrive in Cripple Creek posing as Texas gunfighters. Bret finds the smelting operation and Larry learns of the payoff. But the crooked town Marshal is suspicious of the two men and the reply of his inquiry to Texas exposes them putting their lives in danger.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a classic Western around a detective plot, relying on the tension between the agents' covert mission and the overt threat from the law. It explores the mechanics of the smuggling scheme as the narrative's driving force.
What lingers after the final showdown is the simple pleasure of a straightforward adventure where justice arrives on horseback. — MovieFinder Editorial
