The Fargo Kid is a 1940 American Western film directed by Edward Killy starring Tim Holt.

They plan to employ Deuce Mallory, a wanted hired gun whom they’ve never met, to kill Winters and force his widow to sell the claim.

Johnny and Whopper are jailed by the sheriff for the melee; and the Kid is accosted by Kane and Cleveland who demand their money returned.

Ultimately, the Kid subdues Mallory, and Kane is shot dead as the sheriff arrives, discovering the truth.

As the Kid rides off with Johnny and Whopper, he uses the hair pin to retrieve the $5,000 he had hidden in the barrel of his gun.
