Man with a Gun is a low budget 1958 British crime film directed by Montgomery Tully from a screenplay by Michael Winner. It starred Lee Patterson, Rona Anderson and John Le Mesurier.
Insurance investigator Mike Davies looks into a suspicious fire that burned down a nightclub. He Initially suspects the club's manager, Harry Drayson, but when Davies meets Drayson's niece Stella, she helps him uncover a mob protection scheme responsible for the arson.
TV Guide called it a "so-so crime story. Despite some fast pacing in the direction, the script is too simplistic for the fare."
