Default Constable Help

I am running for PA Constable in my township. It's a very rural township and 100% of my duties would only be to enforce election laws in the polling places of my jurisdiction. I'm running unopposed.

I would, however, like to take the ACT 44 training including firearms certification. Why not?

My questions is, in the meantime, is where I could purchase some uniform things. I'd like at least an official looking shirt, pants, combo, with the PA constable patch, etc.

Where can I find these things?

There are usually PA constable patches on Ebay...several different varieties...older, newer etc....if that's any help. Also many uniform supply places can be found online.

I've also seen some PA constable forums where they talk about uniforms, etc. Search around the net and you'll find them

No, I am not a constable.

I saw those sites, one was dead, and one really didn't have much.

Does anyone know of uniform places in the Harrisburg area?

I think Braverman's in Pittsburgh deals in PA Constable gear.





Or you could always go the route of my local constable and just stroll around wearing black BDUs and jackboots.....

I would try Braverman's though.

Call First Precinct in Reading on a Monday. Ask for Steve Burgoon. He is the owner, a constable, and a friend. Tell him Josh sent ya.

www.constablestore.com

Website sucks, but he has much more and prices are good.

I forgot to add, he also sells used (expired) body armor at good prices.



I got some embroidered polos from qmuniforms.com But that was before I met Steve. I get all my hard use stuff from Steve.
