At some point in the near future (around 1993), law enforcement has become so ineffective that the only real hope for justice is an organization of bounty hunters known as C.O.P.S. (Civilian Operated Police Systems). John Tucker (David Carradine), a Los Angeles bounty hunter sporting a metal arm piece capable of shooting lasers, is hired to protect a woman reporter, Marion Sims (Anna Rapagna), from a gang of renegade cops.
While Tucker is more interested in right defeating wrong than in payment for his services, he has become a bitter, washed up, drunken man due to all the corruption he has seen. Reporter Sims has uncovered proof of the corruption and ineffectiveness of the C.O.P.S system. Unfortunately, the bounty organization is run by a man, Adams, who is also corrupt, and who turns the C.O.P.S organization. Tucker works to save Sims, but many of the bounty hunters from C.O.P.S are after her. When it becomes apparent that Tucker is now helping Sims, a bounty is put on his head as well.
Aiding Tucker and Sims is their ally, Billy, who is a computer genius who utilizes a wheelchair.
