After being shot, a dying Marshal Dawson gives Dave Hayes his badge and asks him to finish his job. Dave becomes Marshal but when Bowie, the man that shot Dawson appears, he exposes Dave as an imposter.
If you are looking for a movie with deep meaning or fancy camera work, The Fighting Legion is definitely not the one for you. This is a movie for people who miss the smell of old paper and the sound of a projector humming in the back of a dark room. It is worth watching today if you really love the history of Westerns...

It is worth watching today if you really love the history of Westerns or if you want to see what early sound movies felt like when they were still a bit clunky. People who like fast-paced action or clear audio will probably hate it within ten minute..."
