Texas Ranger J.J. McQuade (Chuck Norris) is as skilled in weaponry as he is in hand-to-hand ass-kicking (but he's not so proficient in housekeeping). The so-called 'lone wolf' gets partnered with a state trooper that he doesn't want (Robert Beltran) and together the duo track down an illegal arms trader.
It begins and ends like a Western, with music to match, but in-between there's a bevy of 80s action, with plenty of gun-play. The actual story isn't a shining example of the form, but it's fun seeing Norris take on David Carradine. There's also a love interest (Barbara Carrera); the relationship is rushed and weak but it gives each of the two men something else to fight for.
