Don't bother, I got the only good one they made in Houston. Lucky, I guess.
I got a Houston High Standard Citation a few years ago (s/n 26002xx), and it has been fine. I got it used for $280, thinking it would be a nice shooter to save wear and tear on my "real" ones.
I had that same plan with the Mitchell Trophy I bought a couple of years prior to that, and that plan didn't work out so well.
This Houston Citation is much better. It functions (that alone puts it ahead of the Mitch), and shoots nice groups. It sure isn't as pretty as a real HS, but that doesn't really matter in this case.
Like everyone else, I would not advise getting one, however.
It seems like I got THE good one.
