View Full Version : Apologies For My Absence

First, I would like to apologize for my lack of input as of late. I have decided to "retire" from law enforcement and "hoist the black". There comes a point in one's life when one must reevaluate one's station so to speak. I've been working toward my current venture since last November. May 4th 2018 I tendered my resignation and June 11th 2018 I became the owner of a local Pawn/Gun Shop. I will continue to work for Gabe as well as conducting local LTC courses. If you're in SETX come by and see me at Ray's Pawnshop 3135 Texas Ave Bridge City TX 77611. You can also find us on Facebook under Ray's Pawnshop. As I get lined out here my participation will pick back up. I also expect to be carrying several Suarez International products in the future.

Congrats on the new career and business acquisition.
Next time my wife and I are down that way, we'll stop in!

Good luck sir. Should a good S&W Model 27 walk in your door, shoot me a note. I'm nostalgic for an old N Frame.
Nothing like running your own business. Drive it like you stole it...

Even a fair 3.5".

Takes guts to run your own show. Good on you.

On the wish list. And how many of these did we pass on in the day, along with Model 64 Winchesters, Swedish Mausers, Walther PP .32s, BHPs and the like?

Q’s:
How’s life in the pirate business?
Traveling out west anytime soon?
BTW, is that pretty BHP a long slide and I missed the details?

Life is good. You might ask Mike about that BHP lol. I do intend to make a pilgrimage to Prescott hopefully before the holidays.
