Episode Summary

Callan is contacted by Hunter, for whom he had once worked in British Intelligence as a hired killer until he lost his nerve. His first job is to eliminate a gunrunner by the name of Schneider, who has been smuggling Magnum pistols and other armaments for terrorists.

Callan decides that it would be poetic justice to use a Magnum pistol to murder Schneider, and requests Lonely to get one for him.

He suspects, but is not absolutely sure whether he can trust Hunter not to betray him after he has carried out the killing.
