Have Gun, Will Travel Season 3 Episodes

• Drama, Action & Adventure
• Watchlist Where to Watch

One of TV's most successful Westerns told of the hired gun Paladin, who plied his trade in 19th-century San Francisco with a calling card ('Have Gun, Will Travel...') that belied the compelling loner's cultured manner. When he wasn't eating fine food, engaged in polite conversation and dressed impeccably, he was an intimidating gunman dressed in black, striking out for the frontier and ready to kill if necessary. He was, as the theme song put it, 'a knight without armor in a savage land.'

Ambush Recap

Paladin is transporting a prisoner, Blandings, who embezzled money from his former employer, Handler. The gunfighter gets Blandings coffee and reluctantly unties his hands to let the prisoner drink. As Blandings drinks and complains about how his life has taken a turn for the worse, Paladin says that he wants to get across the strada before noon. The prisoner continues reminiscing and Paladin tells him to roll up his bedroll and prepare to leave. The two men ride to the ferry cabin and discover that the boat is in midstream. Paladin rings the bell but there's no response, and goes to the dock to pull the ferry boat back. He discovers that the ferryman is in the river below the dock, dead. When Paladin turns around, he discovers that a hired gun, Devereaux, has got the drop on him and Blandings. Devereaux freely admits that he killed the ferryman and spots Paladin's derringer. He relieves the gunfighter of both of his guns and hits Blandings in the gut when the thief panics. Before Paladin can jump him, Devereaux warns him not to make any sudden moves and that he's waiting for his employer to arrive. Blandings insists that Paladin take him back to San Francisco, and Devereaux wonders if Paladin is a lawman. Paladin gives the man his card and Devereaux takes him and Blandings inside. There are three other prisoners: two men and a woman. One man, a gambler named Carl, is with the woman, Sarah. They're worried that Devereaux is working for Sarah's husband, but Devereaux doesn't answer. The second man, a soldier named Morgan, tells Paladin that they've been there since morning and that Devereaux is being paid to hold them there. Paladin asks Sarah about her husband and she explains that he's a garbage man in St. Louis who she's grown grew to hate. Carl is taking her away to a better life, one filled with culture and beauty, rather than live with a man who blamed her for all of his failings. Sarah would rather die than go back, but Carl tells her to say anything she has to to save their lives. Morgan speaks up, saying that he knows who is coming for them. He believes that it's Blackfoot, a white man who lived with the Blackfoot tribe. Devereaux tells them that he doesn't know who is coming, and doesn't care. Morgan offers to take Devereaux to Blackfoot's trapping money, figuring that he can pay the hired gun as easily as Blackfoot can. Devereaux isn't interested, and Morgan says that he didn't mess with Blackfoot's wife no matter what the man claims. However, the soldier admits that he killed the wife when she found him with her husband's money, but insists that he didn't have a chance. Desperate, the soldier suggests that they rush Devereaux. However, Paladin stops them, pointing out that Devereaux can easily take them out with his shotgun. Devereaux, impressed, figures that Paladin is a professional and dares him to do something. He sets his shotgun on the table and sits down, and then puts Paladin's revolver on the table. Devereaux dares Paladin to make a move for his gun, and the others tell Paladin to try. Paladin steps forward and start to reach for the gun, but then tells Devereaux that he's a coward who only strikes when he's stacked the odds in his favor. As Devereaux starts to sweat, Paladin tells him that no matter how favorable the odds look, there's a chance Paladin could grab his gun and shoot Devereaux with his dying breath. Devereaux starts to panic and Paladin figures he's given himself an edge. However, riders come up outside and Devereaux orders Paladin back with the others. Carl tells Sarah to hide behind him so that her husband will kill him instead, and she can claim Carl abducted her. Sara, surprised, realizes that Carl really does love her and the gambler assures her that he does. Two men enter the cabin, a blind man, Gunder, and his son Daniel. Gunder tells Daniel to bring him the guilty party but Daniel says that he isn't sure who. He claimed to see the man who killed his brother Willie, and the man fled toward the ferry. Devereaux insists that no one got past him since Gunder contacted him, while Daniel says that Willie might have started the fight arguing over a woman. Disgusted with his spineless child, Gunder reminds Daniel that he married a lower-class woman, Sophie, and Willie was the one who respected the family prestige. Angry, Daniel tells his father that he couldn't see what Willie was really like. Gunder doesn't care and again demands that Daniel identify the killer. Daniel finally claims that Blandings is the killer. Paladin knows the thief is innocent and accuses Daniel of lying. Gunder wants Willie's killer and Paladin insists that Blandings is a thief but no murderer. Despite that, Gunder has Daniel give him the rifle and aim for him. Daniel has a change of heart and says that it wasn't Blandings, and Paladin tells Blandings to grab the gun from Daniel. Daniel backs away and Blandings panics and runs for the door. Smirking, Devereaux guns him down without hesitation. Daniel changes his mind yet again and tells his father that he's sure Blandings killed Willie. Paladin says that Daniel must be lying, and Daniel tells Gunder that Willie was a scoundrel and a cheat, and doesn't deserve to have anyone die in his name. Gunder refuses to hear anything bad of his son Willie and orders Daniel to shoot the real killer. Guilty, Daniel says that none of them is the killer, and Devereaux eagerly suggests that he shoot all of them and be done with it. Paladin looks contemptuously at Daniel and accuses him of letting them all die to cover everything up. He tells the man to kill him if he dares and Daniel begs him to stop. Gunder assumes that Paladin is the killer and tells Daniel to give him the rifle. Paladin tells Daniel to kill him himself if he has the guts for it, and Daniel finally snaps. He admits that he killed Willie, and tells his father that Willie spent all of their crop money drinking. When Willie hit on his wife Sophie, Daniel couldn't take it anymore and killed him. Gunder doesn't believe it but Daniel tells his father that he blinded himself to the truth and would never admit that he was wrong about Willie. Shocked, Gunder drops the rifle on the floor and breaks into tears. Monroe goes for the rifle and Devereaux shoots him, and Paladin knocks the table onto the mercenary. When Devereaux goes down, Paladin beats him unconscious with a table leg. Hearing the gunshots, a desperate Gunder calls to Daniel, asking if he's all right. Paladin looks at the man who would have let them all die to protect himself and tells Gunder that Daniel is fine. Later, Carl and South prepare to move on. Paladin tells them that there's a ford further south. However, Sarah says if Devereaux hadn't stopped them from crossing, they would have found another reason to stop fleeing her husband. She asks Paladin if he understands and he indicate that he does. Meanwhile, Daniel guides a despondent Gunder onto their wagon. He covers the old man with a blanket and Gunder clutches it tight around him as Daniel drives away. Paladin, short a prisoner, fords the river on his own.

As of March of this year, the Transportation Safety Administration intercepted 1,503 firearms at U.S. airports, an average of 16.5 firearms per day. While the TSA does not confiscate firearms, it does notify law enforcement, who will take possession of the weapons and press charges in keeping with local law. The TSA can also impose steep civil financial penalties of up to $15,000 depending on the circumstances.

Although trying to cross airport security with a gun is illegal, it is possible to fly with firearms if you know the rules .

Five Fewer Firearms Than Q1 Last Year

The number of firearms stopped by TSA screeners in the first quarter of this year is five fewer than the same time last year. This poses a considerable security risk, especially as 93% of the firearms caught by TSA were loaded.

The rate of passengers traveling with firearms this first quarter was 7.3 firearms per million passengers. That is a slight decrease from 2023, when the rate was 7.9 firearms per million passengers.

“One firearm at the checkpoint is too many,” said TSA Administrator David Pekoske in a TSA press announcement. “The demand for air travel is as strong as ever and security is always our number one priority. Every time we discover a firearm at the checkpoint, the security screening process is slowed down for all.”

Gmail and youtube hackers bypass google’s 2fa account security, apple confirms innovative iphone 16 pro upgrade.

Traveling with a firearm is allowed. However, firearms must be packed safely in checked baggage and declared to the airline at the ticket counter.

Pekoske said, “We always recommend passengers start with a clean bag when they pack to ensure no firearms, weapons, or other prohibited items are present.”

TSA Checkpoints Had A Busy Start To The Year

Having to perform extra screening for those who try to bring their firearms past the security checkpoint also slows the security process at a time when the TSA is managing high numbers of travelers.

Airline passengers screened at TSA security checkpoints increased by 7.8% in the first quarter of this year. Through the end of March, Transportation Security Officers screened over 206 million passengers, compared to more than 191 million passengers last year.

During spring break travel, between March 7 and March 25, TSOs screened over 48 million passengers. This is 7% higher than the number of spring break travellers who crossed security checkpoints at the nation’s airports last year.

All The Times The TSA Stopped Guns At Airports So Far This Month

The TSA reports on firearms finds at security checkpoints throughout the year, and those caught carrying weapons repeat common mistakes. Most people who bring guns to the airport do so with no ill-intent, but either through carelessness, forgetfulness, or a lack of awareness of the rules, they can seriously disrupt their travel plans and the travel plans of others delayed at the security checkpoint.

To get a sense of the most common offenses, we only need to look at the first weeks of April.

April 11: TSA stops the fourth gun in seven days at Reagan National Airport

The TSA stopped an Edgewater, Maryland woman with a 9mm handgun loaded with seven bullets.

“She told officials that she was cleaning and placed the firearm into the small food bag that she was planning to take to the airport and forgot the gun was inside. The firearm took up about half of her lunch sack,” the TSA stated.

The woman was the fourth person that week to be caught with a firearm at the security checkpoint. The Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority Police confiscated all four firearms and cited each person on a weapons charge.

“It is troubling to see four guns within a week’s time. Responsible gun owners know where their firearms are at all times and this trend is very concerning,” said John Busch, TSA’s Federal Security Director for the airport, in a TSA press release. “All of our recent incidents involved travelers who said, ‘I forgot it was in the bag,’ which means they were carelessly and unwittingly carting a loaded, unsecured weapon with them.”

April 9: TSA intercepts a loaded handgun at Charlottesville Airport

An Indiana resident tried to bring his 9mm firearm was loaded with 11 bullets, onto a flight. The gun was detected as the man entered the security checkpoint. The X-ray unit alerted on his carry-on bag, which prompted a closer inspection, during which TSA officers found the firearm. The man faces a financial civil penalty for bringing a gun to a TSA security checkpoint.

April 8: TSA intercepts the third gun in four days at Reagan National Airport

A Florida woman brought her .380 caliber handgun, loaded with seven bullets, including one in the chamber. On April 7, TSA officers stopped a Leesburg, Virginia man who was carrying an unloaded .380 handgun in his backpack. On April 5, officers stopped a man from Falls Church, Virginia, from bringing his 9mm gun, loaded with 10 bullets, through the checkpoint.

In all three cases, the guns were discovered after an alert on the X-ray unit at the security checkpoint, prompting a closer inspection. The Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority Police confiscated the firearms and cited each person on a weapons charge.

April 7: TSA finds two guns at Reagan National Airport

TSA stopped a man from Falls Church, Virginia, from carrying his 9 mm gun loaded with 10 bullets onto his flight on April 6. The next day, they found an unloaded .380 handgun in the backpack of a Leesburg, Virginia man. He told TSA officers that he forgot that he had his gun with him. Both weapons were detected by X-ray alert screening. In both cases, the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority Police confiscated the firearms and cited the individuals on a weapons charge.

“Bringing a gun to an airport security checkpoint delays travelers. More important is the fact that bringing a gun to a checkpoint is a security risk that our officers take seriously, which is why these two travelers each face a federal financial civil penalty,” John Busch, TSA’s Federal Security Director for the airport, said in a TSA press release.

April 7: TSA intercepts a gun at Long Island McArthur Airport

After an X-ray alert prompted an inspection, TSA officers stopped a man from Sayville, New York, from bringing his 9mm firearm loaded with 10 bullets onto a flight. It was the first firearm intercepted at the airport checkpoint this year. The Long Island McArthur Police and Suffolk County Police allowed the man to return the firearm to his vehicle. However, the man still faces a federal financial civil penalty.

April 8: TSA finds a loaded handgun at Norfolk International Airport

A North Carolina resident was prevented from bringing his loaded handgun onto a flight only four days after TSA stopped another traveler with a firearm. It was the ninth firearm that TSA officers intercepted at the checkpoint this year.

The handgun was loaded with eight bullets, including one in the chamber. Local police confiscated the gun and cited the man on a weapons charge. He also faces a financial civil penalty for bringing a gun to a TSA security checkpoint.

“It appears that this traveler had packed his firearm in a gun case. However, he needed just a few more important steps before he could travel with it,” explained Robin “Chuck” Burke, TSA’s Federal Security Director for the airport. “He needed to ensure the firearm was unloaded, then taken the locked gun case to his airline to declare he wanted to fly with it. At that point, the airline representative would ensure that the firearm could be transported as checked baggage.”

April 3: TSA stops a loaded handgun at Richmond International Airport

A woman from Yorktown, Virginia, tried to bring her 9mm handgun past the security checkpoint, loaded with 10 bullets, including one in the chamber. It was the second gun caught at the airport in four days.

April 5: TSA finds a loaded handgun at Norfolk International Airport

A resident of Chesterfield, Virginia, brought his 9mm handgun, loaded with 11 bullets, to the security checkpoint at Norfolk International Airport. Local police confiscated the weapon and cited the man on a weapons charge. The man also faces a financial civil penalty. The case will be forwarded to the Norfolk Commonwealth’s Attorney for possible criminal prosecution.

April 4: TSA intercepts a loaded gun at Pittsburgh International Airport

An Indiana, Pennsylvania man received a summons by police after TSA officers intercepted his .40 caliber handgun, loaded with five bullets, in his carry-on items at the Pittsburgh International Airport security checkpoint. The man did not have a valid permit to carry a firearm.

April 3: TSA catches a loaded handgun at Roanoke Airport

A Roanoke man tried to bring a 9mm gun loaded with nine bullets past the security checkpoint. Police confiscated the weapon and cited the man on a weapons charge. He also faces a financial civil penalty for bringing a gun to a TSA security checkpoint.

April 3: TSA catches a loaded gun at Yeager International Airport

A man from Marlinton, West Virginia, was stopped at West Virginia International Yeager Airport with a loaded firearm in his carry-on items. TSA officers intercepted his .32 caliber handgun, which was loaded with two bullets. Police confiscated the gun.

Firearms Must Travel Safely In Checked Luggage

Air travelers can fly with their firearms if they keep them in their baggage checked in the aircraft hold, secure, and unloaded.

Here are the main points to remember:

• Secure your firearms in checked baggage
• Pack the firearm unloaded
• The firearm must be locked in a hard-sided case
• Be sure to let the airline know your checked bag contains a firearm at the ticket counter

No firearms are allowed to cross security checkpoints, enter the secure area of an airport, or go inside the plane. Even travelers with concealed carry permits or who reside in a constitutional carry jurisdiction must adhere to these rules.

TSA officers prevent local man from bringing gun onto flight at Long Island McArthur Airport

RONKONKOMA, N.Y . – Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officers at Long Island McArthur Airport (ISP) prevented a Sayville, N.Y., man from bringing his handgun onto a flight yesterday (April. 7). The 9mm firearm was loaded with 10 bullets.

The weapon was caught as the man entered the security checkpoint and the X-ray unit alerted on his carry-on bag. It was the first firearm that TSA officers have intercepted at the airport checkpoint this year.

When the firearm was detected, TSA officers notified law enforcement. The Long Island McArthur Police and Suffolk County Police allowed the man to return the firearm to his vehicle. However, the individual now faces a stiff federal financial civil penalty. Civil penalties for carrying weapons can reach a maximum of $15,000.

“I would like to acknowledge my appreciation to the TSA officers at Long Island who acted to ensure that this traveler did not retain control of his weapon,” said Robert Duffy, TSA’s Federal Security Director for the airport. “Bringing a gun to an airport security checkpoint introduces unnecessary delays to fellow travelers and of course represents a security risk. Our TSA officers remain vigilant during this busy spring break season to help ensure everyone can travel safely.”

Firearms are not permitted through a security checkpoint because passengers should not have access to a firearm during a flight. This even applies to travelers with concealed carry permits or are enrolled in the TSA PreCheck® program, who will lose their TSA PreCheck privileges if they bring a gun to a checkpoint.  

Passengers are permitted to travel with firearms only in checked baggage if they are unloaded and packed in a hard-sided locked case. Then the locked case should be taken to the airline check-in counter to be declared. TSA has details on how to properly travel with a firearm posted on its website .

Last year, 6,735 firearms were caught at airport security checkpoints nationwide, of which 93 percent were loaded. 

Bringing a gun to an airport checkpoint carries a federal civil penalty because TSA reserves the right to issue a civil penalty to travelers who have guns and gun parts with them at a checkpoint. Civil penalties for bringing a gun into a checkpoint can stretch into thousands of dollars, depending on mitigating circumstances. The complete list of civil penalties is posted online . Additionally, if a traveler with a gun is a member of TSA PreCheck®, that individual will lose their TSA PreCheck privileges.

Firearm possession laws vary by state and locality and passengers should do their homework to make sure that they are not violating any local firearm laws. Travelers should also contact their airline as they may have additional requirements for traveling with firearms and ammunition.
