Too bad they got rid of their guns and hunting stuff, probably the only thing they might be selling right now.

To many Academys in TX and they treat us well there. I even found one the last time I worked in NC. “What’s good for me may not be good for the weak minded.” Captain Gus McCrae- Texas Rangers
