Tate (TV-1960) THE GUNFIGHTERS (Episode 11) TV Western

Marlboro Man David McLean stars as Tate, a wandering gun-for-hire who lost the use of his left arm during the Civil War. Only 13 episodes of this unique TV Western were filmed. Watch for the BIG guest stars!
THE GUNFIGHTERS: Tate is hired by farmers to collect their back pay and is at the mercy of a hired gunslinger.

There's nothing like a Western, especially the old ones..

[@juniormillet7856]

@tuberesu that matters

[@walterwheeler5465]

A good episode of "The Gunfighters" with David McLean. This was first telecast when the western television craze was just about over, having reached a peak from 1957 until 1960 or 1961.

[@alphonsozorro7952]

But some of those series lasted until the early to mid-70's.

Love the westerns :)

Not bad, not bad at all. Never even heard of this.

"David McLean was a underrated actor he appeared in several films and many tv shows as a guest performer this short lived series of "Tate" was his only primetime series he also had a recurring role on the NBC daytime soap "Days of Our Lives" for a couple of years."-🖥🌐🌍🌎🌏🌍🌐..

Kirby from Combat threatening to get a gunfighter. He should have brought his B-A-R!

[@johnclark6571]

Yeah! That's who that was. I knew he looked familiar, but couldn't place him.

His BAR would have taken care of the bad guys. They wouldn't need Tate.

Kirby, with hair. lol.

Nebraska sure has nice mountains - almost like California. Each farmer worked a year for two cows - not a great deal.

thank you

[@kingforaday8725]

Tate was one of the strangest westerns.

[@Robert-mn8gc]

Never seen this series B4 . Looks OK a few minutes in .

[@hartgerald4117]

nope never heard or saw this show at all. but there's bound to some I never saw. there's good an some are better. thanks for the show.

[@yagousera]

Original title is "A man called Tate" was a series

[@mec4lifesmiley700]

The original Have Gun Will Travel with Richard Boone.

[@veomamaples6189]

there are 2 Western 's they will not let you watch & they are Laramie & Cheyenne, you can't get these,

[@Baskerville22]

With that gun he's a potent-tate. I see Kirby from COMBAT in there....

[@g.h.1472]

No dought its tough doing with one hand. Every body reminds him of it...

[@jamesvickers9476]

They shouldn't have made him a cripple in this series..i think it would have made for better stories..this dude has gotten outta more situations better then a man with two good arms... an how did he tie down his gun with one arm🤔...lasted only 13 episodes ...they had future movie stars in some of them..

[@doughaga3542]

The farmer who fought with Tate was Kirby on Combat! He was great on that show . One with the wife who wanted tate

[@donaldclifft3619]

love westerns in color

Thanks Charles for uploading this episode.

[@frederickwise5238]

Nebraska Territory 1871. Two more years before the 1873 Colt Peacemaker would b invented! but I guess the prop[ man has to work with what he can get. Addendum. At <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1229">20:29</a> it does look like Tate's revolver is an 1858 Remington but the one he took from "Lathrop" at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1306">21:46</a> is a Colt Peacemker (could be 2nd/3rd generation since the series was in 1960 And Jack Hogan who got shot at the door went on to carry a BAR in Combat. Kinda my hobby "noting details."

[@redtra236]

1875 Remington revolver

[@t.curran8243]

It is 1871 and Tate looks like he is using an 1875 Remington revolver. Usually, filmmakers would use period incorrect 1873 Colts. Looks like there's 1892 Winchester rifles too! Didn't they realize the number of the gun was the first year of production?

[@alphonsozorro7952]

As long as they don't use pistols and automatic weapons, who cares?

[@kimwand]

It's new to me but I was born in 1957, I don't know if it came to the UK.

I have a friend that's only got one arm. at times it's quit humbling the things he manages to do.

love Western shows, but it's funny how short every body pants are shorter than their ankles or their pants are to big and the pants are rolled up, yes it's funny but good show, thanks

Inaccurate weapons for 1871

It's just a TV Show 4 Ur enjoyment . What it Ain't is a Documentary

[@redtra236]

@@Robert-mn8gc True, but using highly period incorrect weapons is still a bit of an issue. Some weapons are over 20 years too new.

I enjoyed the show. But I wonder that the subtitles are about. It is very distracting. The printouts are quite different from the audio...therefore confusing. Please get rid of the subtitles. Thanks in advance.

Don't you just love when they put the date up then use guns that had not been invented yet

Particularly salty Tate in this episode. 😀

[@charlesfields878]

June 8 - September 14, 1960 13 episodes. Tate (David McLean) was the Marlboro Man and died of lung cancer in 1995, brought on by many years of heavy smoking. Tate was sponsored by Kraft Foods. It was a summer replacement show and filled in for the second half-hour of Perry Como's Kraft Music Hall as Kraft Summer Theater. It did not develop popularity after it's short run and was discontinued. I don't guess I ever saw it. Seemed pretty boring anyway.

[@billb2479]

They never show him reloading his six gun! Must have been difficult.

[@jongaltsr]

I read a documentary on Wyatt Erp. He would reload each of his bullets with fresh power and lead every morning. I understand that gunpowder in those days collected a lot of moisture and misfired if not loaded with fresh powder. He actually rarely had to use his pistol and often went months without actually firing it at all. When he retired he and his wife were on a ship on their way to their new home in N California and Wyatt took and threw his pistol in the ocean and never touched a gun again.

[@lgtunare]

The actual gunfighter that reloaded his pistols every day was James Butler Hickok commonly known as Wild Bill Hickok

[@tedpeterson6999]

+Bill Ingram I've heard the same about reloading daily, I suspect it was really for target practice though. Black powder and caps are just fine for at least several years. Not a cause for concern.

[@redtra236]

@@tedpeterson6999Not sure if that really applied once they went to the black powder cartridge guns.

[@Robert-mn8gc]

That's because they don't want u 2 think about it
