Riders of the Desert
1932, English. Directed by Robert N. Bradbury.
Blazing guns and plunging horses on the canyon trail--with gold bullion and a glorious girl as the stakes in a game of courage.
The Rangers in New Mexico are being disbanded but Bob Houston gets them to make one more ride. They go after the outlaw gang led by Hashknife. They catch Hashknife, but he escapes taking Barbara with him and Bob and Slim have to go after him again.
