Following is a slightly abridged copy of the information from Hayes:

<<GUN FURY (Released November 1, 1953). [Considerable credits and extensive
cast list deleted for space.] Filmed at Columbia Studios and on location in
Utah and Southern California. Eastman Color. Rock Hudson replaced John
Derek in the cast. Columbia's third [3D] western (counting Fort Ti) was
even better than the first two productionwise. Though shot as a low budget
entry, it was directed strongly by one-eyed Raoul Walsh on magnificent
locations and featured two of the studio's top players as well as several
of their better up-and-coming actors. The 3D aspects were considerably less
exploited here than in earlier Columbia productions, but there were several
striking scenes and none of the usually noticeable stunt doubles and
process shots to mar the action. A darn good western, even on TV.>>

It's interesting that no fewer that three directors who were unable to see
in depth (Andre de Toth and Herb Strock being the others) were active in
the production of 3D movies in the 1950s.
