Huh.
When I was a kid in Southside Chicago, Devils Desciples was a black gang that was always gertting into battles with the Blackstone Rangers, a rival gang. Back then, if you wanted a gun, you made a single-shot called a zip gun out of a car antenna. I think that's why they got rid of them (antennas)
Anyway- I guess there's a market for old vests. I sold one to a guy in Sturgis who has a shop.
