OMG, I can't believe I forgot about C&S. I bought my Colt Python and Colt Government 1911, .45ACP. Larry Rigsby was there at that time. I paid $600 for my 6" Python. Loved that place, had reloading stuff too.

Brazoria county back in the 70's & 80's we had Wilson Sporting goods in the Brazos mall (Bought all our duck hunting stuff there). Palmers Sporting goods in Clute and Beach Bait and tackle in Surfside.

Back in the 70’s ther3 was a old Mom & Pop gas station and sporting goods store down in the Eastland area, South of there if I remember right. They were closing the b store and retiring if I remember right. I stopped in to see what they had. I bought a 20 “ skeet barrel for my 1100 Lt 20 ga. The old man said since it’s a 20 ga. How about $20 . I said sure. He also had a couple of Garcia 5000s and a black 5000C. I $20 apiece for them too. Never made a better deal in my life.
