Little-known mistakes and bloopers in The Rifleman

*The Rifleman*, a classic Western, captivated audiences in the 1950s with its strong father-son bond, timeless values, and thrilling adventures. Chuck Connors played Lucas McCain, a widowed rancher and skilled sharpshooter, while Johnny Crawford portrayed his son, Mark.

Despite its success, the show had its share of bloopers. McCain’s jeans, for example, were Wranglers from the 1940s, though the show was set in the 1880s. The iconic 1892 Winchester rifle, central to McCain’s quick draws, wasn’t historically accurate either.

Chuck Connors almost turned down the role but secured it after producers saw *Old Yeller*. His real-life son, Jeff Connors, even appeared in an episode. Despite these quirks, *The Rifleman* remains beloved for its action-packed episodes and heartfelt lessons.
