A while back I opened my mailbox to find a letter from my down the street neighbor. Inside was a blank check and a note asking me to spend what ever it took to sound proof my chicken coop. Her gripe was my rooster was waking her up in the morning. I suggested that she spend the money sound...

Found this today on Traces of Texas. Thought it was interesting. Legendary Panhandle cowboy Tom Blasingame, who was born in Waxahachie in 1898. He rode his first horse at the age of six. At ninety-one, he was still on the job at the JA Ranch south of Amarillo. Two days after Christmas in 1989...

Only entering the jail and Internal Affairs, no weapons.

Nothing like old Law Enforcement sidearms. I'm a sucker for them also..

Mr. Jeane....we were in Brownwood this past weekend, we missed you there. Bob, if you are interested in the Brownwood show, they only have it twice a year, the next one will be in November. I will get you the exact dates, we would love to have you sitting behind our tables. Larry

I would love to make it back up to Tulsa, especially to finally meet you (and attempt to get some more of your $$$). But health issues makes it difficult, but I am planning on being in Baton Rouge next year. Tell Austin he is missing one of the best little West Texas shows that weekend. Austin...

Dave, this is for you. Over the years I have become good friend and close with some of the old time officers whom have been retired for some time, they are a wealth of info pertaining to anything APD. One such person is a older retired Lieutenant, who during the 70's was the Supervisor over the...

Retired W4...When I got on with APD, the Heavy Duties had already been retired and sold. However APD was still issuing and using the 27-2's with the 3.5" barrel. From my understanding these 27's were shipped with Magna's, however most all officers changed to Target Stocks.

Vonn...Thanks for your comments. APD had a history of sending their guns back to the factory for refinishing, both of these guns have been back. Randy, APD ordered 249 of these guns between 1952-1964, all were nickel plated with 4" barrels, except for 2, which had 6 1/2" barrels. As for the...

Thank you Mr. George...Be watching for a package in the mail in the next couple of days. Larry

I go all the time, however I spend all day Friday, Saturday and Sunday at them. It may be the shows in this area, but I find deals all the time. This past weekend found 2 excellent buys on non Smith's, looked at a Triple Lock and spoke with a gentleman who was selling a RM.

A big thank you to a fellow forum member for allowing me to purchase this 38/44 Heavy Duty, 6 1/2" barrel, marked "Austin Police Department 25" With it is it's brother, which I posted about a year or two back. Also 6 1/2" barrel, marked "Austin Police Department 6" Thanks and enjoy. Larry...
