  • Mike Harvey shows you his Colt 1911 which formerly belonged to Jim Flournoy, High Sheriff of Fayette County during the height of La Grange's Chicken Ranch. Flournoy, La Grange, and the Chicken Ranch all achieved great fame after Larry L. King's book, the film starring Burt Reynolds and Dolly Parton, and the song by ZZ Top all shone a nostalgic light on the infamous house of sin. Enjoy!

      Thanks. Just make sure you're coming to Texas Jack's and not Cimarron's office because we don't allow visitors. Texas Jack's is our official showroom right off the main street in Fredericksburg. Thanks!!

    Take the firing pin plate off and look on the back of the slide to see if the original serial number is still there.

    Mike, I know I say this every time. You have the best dang gun stories EVER !! What a cool 1911 and story to go with it.
    Question : I have seen the new Tuco model pistol out amongst the dealers but it's not on your website. What gives? It's a very nice looking reproduction. I also hear there is going to be an Angle Eyes '58 Remington to go with it. True? Thanks again for the stories.

    Jim Flournoy is turning over in his grave with those pearl grips. I quote Gen W.W. Sterling "Only a pimp in a New Orleans whore house yould have perald grips on a gun" when he asked the Sheriff about the grips on a single action he was carrying, and I was there..
    Please take those damn things OFF please.
