tuffy_rana Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 not one to be negative but a 20 buck retail red texas dont sound too promising. dont get me wrong as its up to the individual what they wanna buy and own......... it sounds awful cheap is all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
