Remembering John Hobbs

[Glock_Holiday]

8 years ago today we lost a member of our AZS community. Many of us knew and considered John a friend. In addition to being a Detective with the Phoenix Police Department he was also an accomplished 1911 gunsmith. Rest In Peace sir.

A hero who gave his life in the line of duty, I don't care what anyone says otherwise.

It was a sad day the day we lost John. John, you are still alive in our memories.

Truly the best of us.

At least he Swiss-cheesed the punk who took him from his family. That’s a hero’s mark if there ever was one.

Yep, he went down swinging, the mark of a man who never gives up. John was one of the good guys and is sorely missed!

John was a good man and even better 1911 smith, miss the conversations and discussions had, may you rest in peace.

Had a couple of dealings with him and he was a good guy. Terrible what happened

I can tell I've been around too long, I remember when Hobbs was skinny and hanging out at Weapon Works back in the day. Was remembering that while sitting on the porch smoking one of Glockmonger's cigars. We've lost a lot of good guys over the years

I will be wearing my shirt on Friday. Just like so many others in remembrance.

Thank you sir for your service, sacrifice, and for standing in the gap between those who would do evil, and the rest of us.
