About Me – Alan Saunders

Hi, I’m Alan Saunders—a full-time father, husband, and correctional officer for the State of Texas. Ever since I was 10 years old, I knew I wanted to serve as a law enforcement officer, and I worked tirelessly to turn that dream into a reality. At the age of 18, I began my career at the Giles W. Dalby Correctional Facility in Post, Texas, where I earned my basic jailer’s license in December 2022.

Unfortunately, the facility closed its doors, which was emotionally difficult for me and my colleagues—people I consider family. In late 2023, I decided to pursue a career with the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, where I discovered a deep passion for rehabilitating individuals who have stumbled in life and ended up incarcerated.

Through this journey, I saw a need for affordable, reliable equipment for correctional officers like myself, so I created this store. The goal is simple: to provide cost-effective alternatives for essential gear that we all rely on daily. This store is a way to support fellow officers, both in law enforcement and corrections, and provide them with what they need to do their jobs safely and effectively.

I’m committed to donating as much as I can to new officers—whether they are just starting out in law enforcement or corrections—and to all of our first responders. While my profit margin is small, the store is designed to cover its own costs and fund donations. If it helps me pay a few bills along the way, that’s an added bonus.

To be completely transparent, this is a dropshipping store, and some of the processes are automated. However, I personally receive all inquiries and am always available to listen to fellow officers or correctional officers who need a friend. I’ve been in your shoes, and I know how tough this job can be. The products here are meant to equip you with reliable tools that you can trust—because we are only as good as the equipment we carry, and only as strong as our weakest link.

For COs, the job is tough—you’re often outnumbered and walk in unarmed, with a 50/50 chance of making it out safely. YOU ARE BRAVE, and YOU ARE WORTH IT.

As TRS Tactical grows, I’m committed to giving back with giveaways and donations to LEOs and COs. But for now, please remember: WE ARE FAMILY, WE ARE ONE.

Thank you for supporting this mission.
