Not grammatically correct. 
 Used as "he has", possibly: "He gots the 40s."</description></item><item><title>Re: He gots</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/HeGots/vpnxb/post.htm#411796</link><pubDate>Sat, 24 Jan 2009 03:49:51 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:411796</guid><dc:creator>Feebs11</dc:creator><slash:comments>2</slash:comments><comments>http://www.englishforums.com/English/HeGots/vpnxb/post.htm#411796</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments12-411796.xml</wfw:commentRss><description>Can you give more of the sentence in which it appeared?
