The Arizona Raider is a 1948 Western starring Tim Holt and his father Jack, the only movie where they co-starred.[2][3][4]

RKO head of production Dore Schary, impressed by the Holts being in The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, gave the film a bigger budget than Holt Westerns normally received.[5] It was also known as The Arizona Ranger.[6]

Plot

Bob Morgan and two friends are mustered out of Teddy Roosevelt’s Rough Riders and go to Arizona intending to join the Arizona Raiders. However Bob's father wants him to run a ranch.
