Ill make this very short and to the point, I need to know if anyone here lives near or knows Don Ross aka "HellBoy". He is a team member here and he lives Alvord Tx. 5 months ago I traded him my glock 33 for his Sig Pro 2340, he drug and drug and drug his feet  until he says he had a stroke. Ive called him several times but he still has not sent my gun. I need this weapon very badly. Does anyone live near him that can maybe ship the gun to me for him, or get in touch with him, (he wont return my calls) and Let me know please.  My email address is "[email protected]" Please let me know.

Vsp1140, he is well known to the guys here.  They can and will provide you with everything from his home address to his phone number (privately--not posted on the board).  Good luck--a successful conclusion is unlikely, it would seem.  


every phone number we tried is disconnected

I even had two sent to me from one of his relatives, and they did not work either.

what a fuck.

time to get these posts together and talk to the sherrifs

He says he had a secondary stroke and says he will get  the gun to me this week.  I will not go into any detail on here but I have spoken with the wise county S.O and they are aware of this situation. Email me with any quesitons.

I hope you get your pistol back VSP, but I wouldn't bet a nickle on it.

Call him and tell him to call me.  If he still has the firearms, I will drive to his place and pick them up, and mail them to whatever ffl you guys need them mailed to.

While NOT advocating ANY violent act...
It sounds like these guys should visit this guy and work it out man-to-man.

As I stated at the first of this scumbag episode, Wise Co. Sheriff's Office will take care of you. If needed, I am LE in Denton County next door and can help if it drags out after next week.
Some of my retired brethren are in Alvord and they will not put up with that crap at all.
GOD BLESS TEXAS.
Lest we Forget.

I just can't believe it.  DonR helped me out when we were looking at losing our house after Enron collapsed a few years ago.  I spoke with him right before New Years and we were supposed to meet up for dinner.  Man, I just can't believe it...  

Remember the Alamo, and God Bless Texas...
