In my limited experience with them, they are not up to the quality, or accuracy of the original guns. I don't know of anyone that uses a Houston gun for target matches, but I know plenty of people ( myself included ) that still use Hamden or E Hartford models.

If I had to buy new, I'd get another Smith 41 before I'd get a Houston made HS.
