Argent Express
Argent Express was started in 1975 by Hank Clark. Although it has been in various locations most recently California, the business is now in Folsom, Louisiana. Celebrating over 50 years of quality silver and art work, we are still at it. We started out making jewelry both custom and artful. That developed into a wholesale small production Concho business. We have done all types of events all over the Western states and still do so on a selective basis.
We were a fixture at End of Trail and Winter Range, the World and National Championships for Cowboy Action Shooting for over 15 years. We also appeared at The Great Western Cowboy and Indian show in Pomona, Calif. for 20 years until it's close. We also appeared at the Leather Trade Shows for a time in Wyoming, Calif. Nevada and Oregon. Mixed in with Car shows and Gun shows there were a lot of Western events and festivals in between..
Being a Life member of NRA, Cowboy Mounted Shooters Assoc., National Congress of Old West Shootists, & Single Action Shooting Society I enjoy the history of the original west. At one time I was a Life member, board member and Secretary of the National Association for Outlaw and Lawman History (NOLA for short). They merged with The Old West History Assoc. and are no more. I was a member of the group that Reenacted the 100th anniversary of the OK Corral in the original location. They were called Gallery of Gunfighters founded by the late George Monte and Tom Harmon.. That group retired and I formed another known as Gunfighters of the Old West. They are retired also.
I have been an Antique and Collectibles dealer for over 50 years and was well known at events in the west. Visit one of my locations in Louisiana at Copper Rooster Antiques on Lee Lane in Old Covington, LA; American Vintage Antiques in Amite, LA or Treasures & More in Picayune, MS.
So there you have it for now, enjoy!
