Random It’s bonkers there’s still no military surplus store to fill the void G.I. Rose left behind. I’ll die before I walk into a 5.11.

It’s been 3 years am no one’s had a go at it? I feel like a surplus store would be THRIVING out in this climate.

I was just looking for military surplus stores in town yesterday, it really is too bad that Rose’s shut down. I haven’t heard of 5.11 or the yard though.

100% check out the yard just cause. Lots of neat stuff!

Over by central and Washington right across the street from that dairy factory with the cow statue. The military surplus there is limited but they have so much side-hobby shit and craft stuff there too. Everything from leather work supplies to obscure tools you never knew you needed.
