I bought a copy of The Wooden Gun because I read something about it being terribly cheap. According to the internet, it cost $7,000, and they did pretty well for the money. Had horses, costumes, props and they filmed in a western town movie set. I don't know if the star spoke in a natural Scottish accent. It even had a couple of nude scenes.
Two murderers, one smart, one dumb, escape from the posse bring them in. One uses an elaborately carved wooden gun to disarm the guy guarding them then it turns violent. The sheriff survives and gets a new posse.
It was pretty good. Far better than the other very low budget westerns I've seen. Had a coherent plot. Pretty violent but they weren't brutal about it.
I couldn't find it on streaming video, but it could be there somewhere.
Starring Jon Jacobs and Michael Kastenbaum. They also directed.
With Dawn Kapatos, Haley Gilbert Fisher, Stephen Polk and Randala.
Black & white.
