The Gunfight at the O.K. Corral
The most famous gun fight of the Old West and the highlight of many movies was the gunfight at the O.K. Corral (October 26, 1881). This 30-second battle between the Earps and Doc Holiday against the Clantons and McLaurys is now reenacted every day. Indeed, in Tombstone, gunfights occur regularly around town between noon and 4:00 p.m. Be careful who you insult!
