Gunslinger was a Western television series starring Tony Young that aired on the CBS television network from February 9, 1961 until May 18, 1961.

Young played Cord, a young gunfighter who works undercover for the local army garrison commander, acting as a secret law enforcement agent in the territory. Unfortunately for Young and Gunslinger, the Western genre was on its way out of the rabid popularity it had enjoyed in the 1950s, and for that reason at least, the show only lasted 12 episodes.
