One of my favorite places to visit and for shopping when I go to the US, is a military surplus store, I spend a lot of money there. As matter of fact, I spend more money there than in an actual mall store. That is why I say, God bless America 👍🇺🇸
Thanks for the video. I grew up a few blocks from an Army surplus store, it looked very much like this one, right down to there being tables with random stuff on them, lol. They sure know how to stack it deep and to the rafters. This was like a little trip down memory lane, thanks again!
I’ve been to that store in converse. Our family machine shop used to be right down the street from it. Awesome store. Their first aid section is the best.
I grew up a block off of Yadkin Blvd. In Fayetteville. I loved taking a walk and hitting all the stores and the Korean tailors that would make or modify anything you wanted . Hell I was larping before it was cool. Great memories . I can't take a road trip without stopping if I see one .
The local Surplus store was THE outdoor gear and clothing store when I was growing up. I spent many an hour browsing. Incidentally, it was called Browseville. And spending much of my paper route earnings there too.
I miss the ones near FT knox that had all kinds of electrical parts and radio gear those were super cool had one that had a lot of stuff like lights and parts from military trucks too
Its surprising when your local surplus store shows up on TH-cam. It’s a great store they have an awesome Selection of items and equipment. The only bad thing I can say about that place is the prices for things have gone up a lot since 2019. I know that’s everywhere but I’ve noticed a huge spike in the prices for most surplus lately.
How lucky are you to have a surplus store like that!!! I might have to plan a trip just to hit up that store. Our surplus stores are no where near that stocked!
Unfortunately here in my city the army surplus stores have gone retail, when I was young they used to be good real surplus stores but they’re not anymore. The few that were good surplus stores went out of business also so there is just two now here in Indianapolis and their 80% new retail

Cynthia Rothrock There is a good one I would say 40 miles south of Indianapolis and I don’t know exactly where I was just traveling around going to antique stores wherever the roads took me at one point, and ran into it, it was a real army surplus store, I wish I could remember where it is.I would say it’s due south of Indianapolis
I find it amusing that you people believe the headlines and not the truth. I know many people who work for BRCC and none of them are anti gun. Shows how stupid Americans truly have gotten over the years. Y'all are no better than the cancel culture commie Left. You get your "Information" from headlines and talking heads who have no idea what they are talking about. You might wanna look up how much money those guys have donated to "FPC" and other gun rights groups before you talk shit and prove you are an idiot. They do one time donations that are more than you make in a year.
Okay that has to be the best surplus store i have ever seen. As a Mil spouse been to all kinds of surplus and sell offs in different countries ( okay the on in Gelnhausen an Budingen DE was pretty good), but this place is flaming amazing plus organized.
🔥I, William, idliketo outdoors, just came across this episode as I am waiting to make my weekly volunteer visit at a local prison, they need Jesus too, and really enjoyed it. I'll be stopping by again since I am now a subscriber. The Lord bless you.✝
TH-cam has taken down two of my posts stating the location of this shop so unfortunately I won't be able to say where it's located, its name is armed forces supply it is in Texas.
We have an old warehouse mil surplus that they own building, there are "catacombs" of OLD inventory and parts that have been there 30-40 years. Got to know the owner. ..he let's me TOUR. Found some cosmoline 1950 Yukon stoves , bought the two he had. CHA ching
@@hypocrisyhunter8919 the Armed Forces Reserve Center is permanently closed. The place in this video is called “Armed Forces Supply”. They are still in business
Loved the tour of the Store but please oh please slow down the Camera movements!!! It makes it almost impossible to watch. Other than that, it was good.
I come from fort worth, we have omahas army navy, everything in the crammed store it real military equipment going back all the way to wwii, seeing this is a bit different lol
Damn the one near me kind of sucks it’s dark smells weird and the lady is really mean like degrading mean. It’s kind of funny but borderline an experience. 😂
When I saw the compasses, I'm reminded of the saying, "Know why there's a mirror inside of a compass? - So you can see who's Lost!"

When I was a boy we called it the " Army/Navy " Store.
Ooh thank god im not the only one that remember army/navy store
Love that store. The nearby bases keep that place stocked with all kinds of good stuff.
My local surplus store isn't nearly as well stocked as yours. Not gonna lie, I'm jealous. lol Thanks for taking the time to shoot and share.
You are most welcome! Thanks for watching. Please subscribe if you can👍🏼
ALL Mil-surprise stores should be warehouse sized buildings! That mil-spec smell is fabulous!

East Tennessee here! There used to be several Military surplus stores in our area! They're all gone now, it sucks!

This is like Santa's grotto ✨ What a store...thanks for sharing
Reminds me of the Sunny Surplus Store where I lived some 60 years ago, I'm 67 now.
Awesome video, I love going to Armed Forces Supply in Converse, Texas.
Wow. That's a nice MRE selection !! I never seen that before !

I thought that place looked familiar! They used to sell relatively fresh cases of MREs for $50! After that winter storm they jumped to $200!
Wasn’t the winter storm. Look up mre case prices online, even on base. They are $130.
Did you ever go to Galveston to visit " Colonel Bubby's " Military Surplus Store on the Strand?
That was an awesome warehouse full of great stuff.
That place was the best for finding weird foreign issue gear!
@@shawnmurphy4069 The Ukrainian military could find everything they need to defeat Russia at Colonel Bubbys.
@@Bill23799 Indeed. The Ukrainians could have also sicced the Colonel's cats on their enemies too. 🤣🐈🤣🐈⬛🤣
Black Rifle Coffee? The grift paid off for them didn’t it?
Its shocking anyone.sho cares about the future would try to sell them as a goid company ..Grift seems the right word

Not for me thanks. And as for the store as a whole; a Stolen Valor mecca. Wonder if they sell purple hearts and SEAL tridents too?!
Black rifle coffee are scum of the earth happy to support Infringements of rights as long as they make a buck off of it.
Yep, FBRC!

My Dad took me to the Army/Navy surplus when I was a teenager.
wow, love to check this place out. mres were impressive
Hahaha, I never heard the "high velocity hole punch" phrase before! I usually call it a "cordless drill"..... 😀
That's awesome I been in a lot of military surplus store but that is the coolest store
I found a surplus store in alaska that had a ton of rcw's, I bought a few cases.
I am a big on history buff and I have an awesome Alice mountain pack as well as 3rd pattern Vietnam 1968 jungle olive drab boots

Wow! Wow! Cool store, thanks a lot.

Where is this one specifically...would like to see if they have a website to order from
Armed Forces Supply: Converse Tx. Website is in the description
best surplus store I have ever seen. I am in st louis though. who would have thought MREs would be 29 dollars apiece
Everyone needs a survival bag in their car. It really doesn't cost much but worth gold if you do need it.
Been wanting to go to one. Got to get out and do it.
You will love this place!
Thank you for sharing man.
My pleasure!
Having military equipment more available to the public will make exploring the Solar System alot more faster if it goes to space.
Great post! I'm outside of SA. Where is this one located?
In Converse off 78. Website is in the description
I remember when they used to sell used military Jeeps and trucks. Do they still sell these?
Not to my knowledge
Yes military vehicles get auctioned off all the time.
I appreciate you guys! Awesome video! I appreciate the review and business 🤙
David Gardiner- Owner
Thanks for keeping such a great store!
Holy crap!! That store is AMAZING!!I WISH WE HAD SOMETHING LIKE THAT HERE IN FLORIDA!!
I know it's a U.S. surplus store, but, how much is made in China?

Black rifle coffee company is a crime against decency. Kyle Rittenhouse needed our support, and most everyone turned their back on him.
When their CEO donated to ActBlue...I'm out!
Any man that can call an MRE "taste" is a man that had never spent more than 3 days in the field actually eating them.
Gas mask helmet gray for rain jackets even camouflage
I could live in that store 😂 are they online ?

Sorry folks this camera work is so bad I had to leave. Suggest a camera stabilizer and slowing your scans.
I've seen worse and he can't setup a filming studio in a public store. We're lucky he even bothered to make this video for us. Quit your bitching.
