I was at the local gunshop today, and overhead a few gents talking about the AZ Rangers, and it brought up an old question.. What do these guys do? I have seen many cars/trucks around town with the AZ Rangers badge/logo on the door... And I remeber seeing a few of them in Tombstone once. I know they are an all volunteer 'force', do these guys have any polcie powers? Anyone here enlisted? |

Well here is the notes I took on the AZ Rangers from ADJ101... Arizona Rangers-1901 work directly for governor, non-paying position, assist statewide law enforcement agencies when needed. They are in charge of state wide functions, and must have a ccw permit(seems odd that they would need one though). I think you have to had served with DPS for a certain number of years but I could be wrong. You also have to dress like a cowboy  not much help but all I know.... |
I'll talk to my grandpa tomorrow and find out. His Great uncle was an Arizona Ranger when we were a territory. Grandad still has his SAA, and carries it on deer hunts...... GT AZ Native... |
Thanks, already been there... Looking more for first had encounters/expereance |
