NRA Life Member

Born and raised in the South (well, Southern California that is)
Jim “Simeon Reno” Wallace has been around shooting and firearms
for practically his entire life. At age 9 his mom and dad
taught him how to shoot and hunt, and he’s been hooked ever since. |

He became
involved in cowboy action shooting early and in 1996 joined SASS,
becoming a member of the
“Reno Gang,” named after the first known train robbers of the Old
West. While Jim thinks he’s a good shooter with his 24”
Marlin, when it comes right down to it, he’s shoots just like the
rest of us – high mediocre – but to him the fun of cowboy action
shooting, the people he’s met, and the camaraderie overshadow any
championships he hasn’t won.
Before coming to Walker
’47 Jim was a dispatcher for a major trucking company for several
years. That gave him invaluable experience in organization and
the ability to handle many tasks at once directing people going in
all kinds of different directions. Being an assistant high school
wrestling coach taught him how to deal with people from the head
coach on down to the last guy on the team. Further, Jim has
worked in gun stores since approximately 1992. So combine his
organizational skills with his multi-tasking (rare for a man, we
admit), and his people skills, and you have the invaluable
services of Jim Wallace.
We
call Jim our “in-store services” guy. He’s invaluable for
organizing the stock and creating new displays to show off our
products at their best. His artistic talents are put to use
making all our in-store signs (as he’s one of the few of us who
can spell). With his friendly demeanor and cowboy action shooting
knowledge, Jim helps behind the counter and takes care of the
store when Nasty Nick isn’t there. Further, if you have something
on order and just want to check the status, or if you want to
place an order, Jim’s the one to corral. We know you’ll find Jim
friendly and honest to deal with. So, if you need to contact
Jim, you can call him
at (714) 871-8171, fax (714) 871-8516, or
just email him at
info@walker47.com.
