Deep in the heart of Texas lies a little border town called Eagle Pass, That has been graced by the world’s largest shotgun manufacturer. Mossberg’s newly expanded Maverick Arms Factory was due in large part to it’s home state’s crushing Gun Control Laws and agendas. The 116,000 square foot manufacturing plant in Maverick County currently produces all of their shotgun inventory and the Duck Commander and Muddy Girl line of shotguns that are flying off the shelves.
The MVP Series line have overwhelmingly passed their expectations Ten fold. Tom Taylor, Senior Vice President of sales and marketing says, ” We’re moving all our wood gun stock production to our Texas facility.” More of their other product lines like the modern sporting rifles have moved to Texas as well. “Texas has been very good to us. Also our gun sales have been so dynamic over the last number of years. We’ve outgrown our facilities and this major expansion will help keep us up with demand.” Mossberg CEO, Iver Mossberg said “Investing in Texas was an easy decision. It’s a state that is not only committed to economic growth but also honors and respects the Second Amendment and the firearm freedoms it guarantees for our customers.” Then former Governor Rick Perry said “This investment in Maverick Arms will help create jobs and opportunity in Eagle Pass, while reaffirming Texas’s longstanding support of the Second Amendment.” Support and Respect for the Second Amendment?
Fast Forward to the Texas 83rd Legislative session, and the 74th District Representative Alphonzo “Poncho’ Nevarez (D) out of Eagle Pass, his photos with the ladies from Moms Demand Action on Gun Sense, a group that if they had their way, the Right to bear arms would not exist. An instantaneous NO! when asked to support House Bill 195 a Pro 2nd Amendment Gun Bill while being handed a stack of signed petitions from his constituents. Also saying “Yes I’m a Tyrant” after being told that he was a Tyrant to the Constitution by not agreeing to support a bill requesting our Full Gun Rights back that were taken from us. With these actions and cronies like MDA who were funded and created by the same Gun Control people that Mossberg fled from. Has this district been usurped by an anti-gun Democrat? What is his agenda? He is the Vice Chairman, under Larry Phillips (R) from Sherman in the House committee that will oversee the gun bills, and has already voted against Concealed Handgun licensees carrying on College Campuses. Voted No, to shorten the number of hours that a free man or woman has to go through in order to receive permission to exercise their right to carry a handgun concealed. So what gun bill will he strike down next?
His district is also home to a number of American ranchers and land owners that constantly have to protect themselves and their property from multiple threats that require a wide array of firearms. Previous State Representative Pete Gallegos was asked after Obama signed those Executive orders on Gun Control what his stance was, He said “I’m confident that Congress can both comply with the 2nd Amendment to protect gun rights and protect our families.” The current United States House Rep. Will Hurd from Texas’ 23rd district which includes Mossberg’s Factory was asked about Gun Control, He said absolutely not, and that “The Federal Government should pass a national stand your ground law.” So with 550+ full time employees in Eagle Pass along with Mossberg’s annual income exceeding 32 million a year, why would Mr. Nevarez go against the grain and appear on MSNBC expressing his fears of gun owners, give countless interviews about how he was in fear for doing his job by being addressed by 2nd Amendment supporters simply demanding their rights back.
Representative means to represent “Us” the people of Texas which is his job. If being “called out” in a metal detector and DPS fortified Capitol Building for doing what you were elected to do is so scary then maybe he needs a new profession. The only Firearms allowed in The Capitol are the pistols concealed by the people that he is willing to grant open carry of a handgun to. So will he hit his “Panic Button” on the people he supports? The people of Texas addressing their grievances is another Constitutional right that he detests. Our Capitol is also where arrests of activists have been made outside with simply carrying plastic toy guns and Black Powder pistols. We are the ones being bullied, defamed, and treated like peons by the likes of these type of lawmakers. I hope his Gun Control and other Oathbreaking actions are washed away by the voters of his district. He does not understand that our right to protect ourselves with whatever we want is a human, Constitutional, and civil right. We the people will prevail.

WHAT A BULLSHIT ARTICLE!!!.
Poncho could have been persuaded with the right tactics. I am sure alot of people in Eagle Pass would like open carry. Dudes a convicted burglar anyway, Watkins doesent have the right to carry in my book.

Threatening an anti Constitution, oath breaking Representative by calling him a Tyrant and that he needs to be replaced. Nope. Not threatening. Look what being nice and polite about our inalienable rights being taken from has done. Nothing. No more Mr. Nice Guy. Pretty Please can we have our Human,Civil, God Given and Birth Rights back?
Kenneth Paul
poor willie such a myopic view; every one was ready for constitutional open carry before Kory Watkins showed up. one man with so much power!
Willie Calhoun
Isn’t this the rep that Krazie Kory and his groupies confronted, called names, and basically threatened? If so, I am not surprised he is against some of the 2nd bills. They moved him from the fence to the no yard by their actions.

I don’t think this should be a big problem. Think it through. With all the crime and violence in that area due to cartels and illegals as well as the feds would it really be that difficult for someone to “disappear” Maybe there would be an investigation and it would lead to some coyote. Who knows?

Mossberg need to start funding his replacement.
