In viaggio verso Denver, Latigo Smith capita per caso nella cittadina mineraria di Purgatory. Qui è in corso una lotta tra due società rivali; lui viene scambiato per il famoso pistolero Swifty Morgan e viene contattato da entrambi i contendenti. Quando arriva anche il vero Morgan ne succedono di tutti i colori.
