They never had more than 100-110 made men at their peak.


While this is true, at their peak they were making money hand over fist with the gasoline scam among other businesses and rackets they had I’m sure.


The trouble was that after the third colombo war more orena supporters becomed independent and stop pay money to the family,russo tried to take them back to the family plus the colombos are less respected because a Gambino stabbed a colombo wiseguy an for dont retaliate the colombo asked 100K - 150K that anyway wasnt paid.
The other side is that the colombo was always confinated in Brooklyn.
Anyway better the colombos that philly or the decavalcante.
