Plot

Set in 1893, Cripple Creek reveals a clever scheme where outlaws are smuggling high-grade gold ore instead of traditional bars. They smelt the ore and disguise it to resemble lead. Government agents Bret and Larry infiltrate the town, posing as Texas gunfighters to investigate. While Bret uncovers the smelting operation, Larry discovers the bribes fueling the scheme. However, their ruse catches the attention of the town's corrupt Marshal, who grows suspicious and alerts Texas, putting both agents in peril as their cover is blown. Tension escalates as they race against time to thwart the criminals.
