* LeaveBehindAPistol: Clay rides away from Reb and Abby, but then hears gunfire so turns back. By the time he arrives, Abby is gone and Reb is [[PinnedToTheWall nailed to a tree]] by an Apache arrow through his chest. Clay goes to cut the arrow out, but Reb tells him to leave it. He knows he is dead either way, and says his death will be slower but less painful if the arrow remains in place. When Clay leaves to find Abby, Reb asks him to leave him a pistol 'in case the Apaches come back'. Clay hands him a revolver and walks away. As he does so, he hears the gun being cocked behind him followed by a single shot. Clay keeps going without turning around.

''Shotgun'' is a 1955 American {{Western}} film directed by Lesley Selander and starring Creator/SterlingHayden, Creator/YvonneDeCarlo and Zachary Scott.
Ben Thompson, a vengeful outlaw just released from prison, ambushes and kills USMarshal Mark Fletcher--one of the two men who arrested him--with a shotgun. However, he fails to kill Fletcher's partner, Deputy Marshal Clay Hardin. Hardin, who had been about to turn in his badge and accept the position Indian Commissioner for the territory, turns his back on his cushy new white collar job and his fiancee, and rides out in pursuit of Thompson and his gang. Along the way, he acquires a couple of companions in the form of ruthless BountyHunter Reb Carleton, and a beautiful half-breed woman named Abbey. Tracking Thompson into Apache territory, Hardin and his companions discover that Thompson is planning to sell repeating rifles to a band of Apache renegades.
