Where To Watch
These Rifleman actors also appeared in Mayberry – can you match their characters to the right show?
Did Roy Stoner, Micah Torrance and Hattie Denton live in Mayberry or North Fork?
The Andy Griffith Show and The Rifleman gave the world two of TV’s most iconic dads. Both imparted life lessons to their young sons and both kept the peace, albeit in very different ways.
These two classic shows overlapped for a few years in the early 1960s and shared many of the same actors.
Here are 10 people who appeared in Mayberry and the Old West town of North Fork. We’ve provided character names associated with each actor. Try to guess if that character is from The Rifleman or The Andy Griffith Show!

9 for 10....Lee Van Cleef fooled me , I cannot for the life of me place him in Mayberry N.C. !
He looks scary to be in T.A.G.S. , oh well , moving on.

Seems like he was one of the rough characters at the carnival with Jerry Van Dyke in the Banjo Playing Deputy episode
He was.
He did play on the rifle man he layer a gun slinger who ended up siding with Lucas and
Mika in a shootout.
