his guns were a masterpiece of production. Carefully crafted. Fine workmanship. Accurate. I had one of his Texas Longhorn Arms West Texas Flattop Target Models in .45 Colt. It was amazing!

The gun was marked "One of One Thousand" and was numbered 830. I believe it was the last West Texas Flattop Target Model made.

In addition to being "left handed" the gun had lots of other little things that set it apart. One was the screws for the hammer, trigger and cylinder bolt were "blind" screws in that they did not go all the way through the frame.

They were quite a work of art.
