The handsome Chandler, on his beautiful steed Raven, played Ken Wayne (alias "Flip" LaRue), a notorious gunfighter coming to the aid of a beleaguered rancher (John Ince) whose son (John McGuire) is falsely accused of killing a card shark. In the ensuing melee, Flip is confronted with his own foster-father, Whispering Carlyle, the leader of a gang of cutthroats scheming with the local sheriff (Yakima Canutt) and a powerful cattle rancher (Charles "Slim" Whitaker) to take over the Thornton sheep ranch. The film's centerpiece was the final confrontation between the young gunman and the foster-father who had taught him how to shoot in the first place. In the end, old Whispering Carlyle saves the life of his protégé despite the threat of a jail sentence. The veteran gunfighter was played by Neal Hart, a once popular silent screen cowboy and a distant cousin of William S. Hart. Guns for Hire was later reissued for television under the generic title Blazing Trail. ~ Hans J. Wollstein, Rovi
