Review

There is a wanted gun, Winchester made in 1873. There is a competition on 4th of July in 1973 where is a possibility to win this rare gun in a shooting competition. A man named Lin wins the gun, but the man who was on the second position in competition does not seem to be too happy about his loss. He and the Lin knew each other for a long time and they have already bad blood between them and things are not going better when the Winchester is stolen by him. There are lot of gunfights happening and the gun changes its owner until it is time for the final battle.

This was a good old western movie. Its plot is good, there is funny moments, enough action and the shared history of these two man is revealed in the end.
