Django has a rough past, now working as a sheriff's deputy. Django is done with his work on the law side and wants to leave with his wife Connie to settle on a ranch. Along the way, they are ambushed by outlaws led by the gunman Domingo Jack. Domingo and his men decided to rob Django and his wife. Shot 10 times, Django lay in a pool of blood as he watched Domingo and his gang take his wife, steal his guns, horse, hat and wagon. But Domingo's gang made a mistake because Django is the best gunman, he has the fastest and most accurate hand and so only 10 of Domingo's gang remained alive, Tobias Weasel, Morton Clayton, San Antonio Bill, Wildcat Hendricks, Nathan Mitchell, John McCabe, Jack Baker, Smoky Jim, Colorado Slim, and of course Domingo Jack. Django woke up the next day with strangers in the barn of some family ranch, swore revenge, wrote a list of 10 men who must pay for what they did. He started practicing shooting to be the fastest and most accurate again. He then embarks on a journey to seek revenge and rescue his wife. He gradually eliminates men who are just items on his list. Any man who stole his wife and belongings must confess to Django's weapon. The number of men on the list is dwindling and Django gets back his horse, wagon, knuckle duster and even his legendary pistols. Now it's just Domingo, he's with Django's wife and 50 bandits in a former military fort from the Civil War. Django kills all the men one by one with a pistol and dynamite and rescues Connie.
