My older brother used to take me to Golden State Arms in the early 1960's. I still have clear memories after all these years. OUTSIDE of the front door, you had to walk over a concrete pad, that had about 20 pistols of various types embedded in the freshly poured concrete. I remember that one pistol, it might have been the Webley revolver, had been damaged when someone tried to pry it out. Besides the guns, like German Lugers in a barrel for $50 each, was the fantastic militaria for sale everywhere. Along the upper walls, you could see that even surplus Civil War and Indian War uniform items were still available and for sale. I remember Civil War era enlisted rank chevrons of EVERY rank, and in EVERY different color for the various army branches, were displayed for sale. Spectacular and overwhelming to a 15-16 year old kid. I'd give anything to be able to visit THAT store again.
