Para USA Offers Commemorative Thin Blue Line Pistol

Tuesday, March 17th, 2009

Para USA has honored us by designing a special limited edition commemoriative SF-45 pistol just for the Thin Blue Line!  This top of the line .45ACP in engraved with our TBL logo and “Thin Blue Line”.  I cannot begin to tell you how proud I am that this gun exists.  A very few years ago I sat on the sofa and tried to come up with a way to celebrate my heroes - you, law enforcement.  That was the birth of the Thin Blue Line Invitational.  I am more than a little humbled by the way the Thin Blue Line has been received by LEOs across the state.  From that desire to give you folks a day that belongs to you only, the Thin Blue Line Invitational has gotten legs and grown into an event that is anticipated every year and now there is even a high quality pistol that commemorates this match!  Wow!

The retail price of this gun is $1,646.00.  Para has priced it at only $760 for LEOs…and $20 of that will be donated to the Thin Blue Line to help us prepare for the 2009 Invitational.  If you have ever owned a Para you know the quality and usual high cost.  This really is a deal, heroes!

Para has made it pretty easy to order, too.  Simply go to the order form on this site, download and complete it and then call me at 864.905.5733 for the order verification code.  (Para simply wants to ensure that all orders are from legit LEOs only).  They plan to begin shipping in June.  Credit cards will not be charged  until the gun ships!  You can bet ole Ron already has his order in…now just have to squirrel away enough money to pay for it!

Please feel free to give me a call if you have any questions about this incredible deal!

Para USA to be 2009 Match Sponsor

Tuesday, March 17th, 2009

George Wedge, VP of Marketing, with Para USA has given me a verbal commitment to be our Match Sponsor for the 20090 Thin Blue Line Inviatational.  Match sponsorship is a $3000 commitment!  They are really behind what we are doing and want to be a part of it.  They are partnering with BlackHawk for this match so we should see some really cool stuff in the shooters bags!

Their move to Charlotte NC is well under way.  In fact, the TBL Para pistols we are all ordering will be shipped from the Charlotte facility.
