• Continuity: When Will Lockhart and Barbara Waggoman walk together in town, Will Lockhart stops close to a pole but doesn't lean against it; however, he is seen leaning against the pole in the next shot.
  
  
• Continuity: In the end of the movie, the cart loaded with guns is standing close to the edge of a hill. Will Lockhart and Vic Hansbro push it forward, but in the next shot from the bottom of the hill, the cart is in the same place.
  
  
• Anachronisms: Just after Lockhart battles the guy trying to knife him in town, the store Indian runs up a ladder. The ladder clunks and is metal, not pine poles as it should be.
  
  

• Continuity: During one of the fight scenes, Dave is seen bending slightly with his gun pulled from its holster. There is a quick cut, and then back to Dave where he reaches to pull his gun from its holster when it had already been removed.
  
  
• Continuity: When Lockhart first encounters Dave at the salt flats, Dave fires his gun several times and we hear mules squealing as if in pain; Vic later states that Dave killed twelve of his mules, but even when all the characters exit the scene in long shot, there is not one dead mule visible, much less twelve.
  
  
• Factual errors: Two of Dave's men are holding Lockhart as Dave prepares to shoot Lockhart's hand. One of the two men is in the direct line of fire, and since Dave is shooting Lockhart's hand at point blank range, the bullet would have gone through his hand and struck Dave's henchman.
  
  
• Factual errors: When Lockhart meets Alex, he says that there are 12 dead mules and 3 burned wagons. When Lockhart goes to the Barb to collect, Alex says wagons are worth $75 and mules $20, so he owes Lockhart $600. 3 wagons x $75 equals $225 and 12 mules x $20 equals $240. $240 plus $225 equals $465, not $600.
