Heavy on the drama in this episode. Modern western look to this story. Good fact finding by the duo. Detective work isn't easy. Helps if bad guys aren't experienced.

The .44 Magnum episode!

This one came hard on the heels of the Movie "Magnum Force". I remember it well because I was just a kid when this one came on and I had just seen Magnum Force several months earlier. I agree with the other review that there was a "modern western" look to this episode. I visited L. A. in 1976 and there was genuinely a "modern western" look to parts of it. Even the epic shootout at the end had kind of a Wild West feel to it. Too bad that we didn't get to actually see the big .44 pistol in action, but they were probably hard to find as the Eastwood movies had made them hard to find. An episode that starts with a drunk lady with a gun at a bar and ends up with a shootout with "cowboys" outside of a bar? Yee haw, git along, little dogies!

(*Fred Wheeler to Officer Malloy quote*) - "Why aren't you people around when you need 'em?"

Officers Reed and Malloy are on PM Watch and it's turning out to be a very busy shift for them.

From a drunken woman waving around a gun in Neil's Bar, to cowboy car thieves, to a service station hold-up, to a shoot out in a parking lot - There's no end to the action for Adam-12.
