Legends of the Old West: Texas Rangers Ep. 3

EPISODE 3 — “WAR, AND THE WALKER COLT”

President Polk is furious with General Taylor’s ceasefire agreement with Mexico and he orders General Winfield Scott to continue the war. Captain Jack Hays, Samuel Walker and John “RIP” Ford return to Mexico for the final push toward the capital, but the Rangers suffer a devastating loss in the fighting.

A brief meeting between Samuel Walker and Samuel Colt in New York City leads to the creation of the Colt Walker revolver and revolutionizes the firearms industry.
