Keeps all the good surplus gear in back. I know this because of a personal friend. Went to purchase a item way over price would not deal. The words was I know what I got. Been a military surplus collector for years.. very rude will not be back. Really over priced. I try to local but not this way.EDIT: In response to the owner's reply, I did not expect anything to be "given away" or any kind of "special deal" ... It was pure coincidence running into a fellow living historian, the young man you speak of. You claim to care about keeping the youth interested? You were well aware that this item was not for myself, it was for my 12 year old son, who was with me looking for something for his Vietnam impression because we have an event coming up. The items my son has collected are items that have been passed down or thrifted, because we don't have a lot of money to spend, but he loves the military history and participating in living history events is something we enjoy doing together. We even had a conversation with you about him needing the item for his living history and showed you pictures of his impression. Also, you never once mentioned the stuff in the back was your "personal collection" ... in fact when I joked with you about keeping the good stuff in the back, you told me it was the stuff you just didn't have the room for on the sales floor because the more modern items sell better. When I asked for a price, you were firm because you "know what you have" and were unwilling to negotiate. I was trying to support a local business instead of going on eBay or an overseas supplier, but when I told you the price you quoted was more than I could afford to pay, you were done with me. You didn't ask what price I felt was fair. You were just done, take it or leave it. If that is the way you run your business, so be it. I just felt like it was all about money for you, not about the history or the youth. Also, if this is your personal collection and you care about the history, I would encourage you take as much pride in the items as you think they are worth, display them proudly, and take better care of them that being in a junked up warehouse. That, sir, is how you keep history alive.

Pretty cool store! It's a lot bigger than I remembered. They have a lot to look at. The owner said they always have more inventory coming through so never know what else you might find. Browse their stuff!

"you get more with honey than salt" is a joke, right boss?? Got a BRAND NEW pair of size 13 boots from the PX, worn one single time, $160 on base and this chad tells me he'll give me $25 store credit.. I cant lie, I prefer to keep with the small businesses no matter what state I'm in, but being offered 1/6th the value of a brand new pair is downright dog. I originally just wanted to trade for a pair that'd fit me, didn't care how worn they were just need a good fit. I'll give my 13's to someone in need before I'm scammed out of $130 and I don't mind driving out to Heber for my local tried n true vendors. Even easier making a peer to peer transaction online for surplus. Honey is nice and all, but respect for vets and those currently serving is a whole lot better in a surplus store. In any event I'd never offer anyone, even civilians, $25 for their $160 brand new boots.

This store is a fantastic place to shop. Lots of merchandise and supplies, and the friendliest staff you will ever find. You will find yourself browsing and losing track of time. If they don't have it they can get it for you. Public facilities are clean and readily available.

I've been here twice recently. The first time I experienced very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful staff. The second time the staff didn't care if I made a purchase or not and paid no attention to me but rather gossip amongst themselves.Great selection of new and used military items

Large selection of authentic military surplus. Expect to find modern and some vintage BDUs, camo netting, flashlights, knives, machetes, ammo cans, gas cans, boots, MRE's, backpacks, rain gear, holsters, canteens, shovels, and more. This business is a popular place to buy military surplus items. As a result certain items will sell out more quickly than others. If you cannot locate a specific item then ask for Mike. Hes the owner and will help you find what your looking for. Prices are generally low to reasonable. Quality is excellent (built for combat). Condition of items are used and in good shape. Some are new.

As army surplus stores go it's fantastic! Is it as cheap as online? No, nothing is. BUT you can actually pick out your items unlike the luck of the draw online. That is worth still shopping in an actual store and they have a lot of surplus. ACTUAL surplus. Not like most "surplus" stores that are filled with 98 percent commercial Condor, Fox, 5.11, Rothco, et cetera. They have a bit of course but most everything is milsurp here. Which is awesome. A serious amount of clothing so if you want pants, shirts, parkas, from all around the world, this is a good one. They have some stuff that dried up on the surplus market decades ago.

Nice shop. They sell a variety of things including tires. The staff helped me figure out what I needed to match up my existing tires. So far so good!

They had several options of the military pouches I was looking for. I found two that suited my needs for saddle bags for my recumbent trike. Thanks, very friendly.

Went there June 3 & June 4, 2018. Got a backpack,3 MRE’s, 2 smoc’s, 1 cap, & 1 Boonie hat.Also some para cord and a tshirt. The guy was easy going and talked about hunting in Canada. Went there on Sunday and he was open, and that was awesome, as he is not open on Sundays. But call and he could be there and be open on that day or what have you. Good gear and reasonably priced.

I brought my grandfather to this store to find a WWII patch for his wheelchair to go above the navy emblem provided by the VA. Everyone was so kind, they treated my grandfather like a celebrity. I am a customer for life!

I COMMENTED ON HOW I LIKED THE STORE AND WAS TREATED RUDELY FROM THE GUY AT COUNTER! I STARTED TO PUT THE ONE ITEM I PURCHASED BACK BUT DID NOT. I DID NOT PURCHASE THE HIGHER DOLLAR ITEM I WAS MOST INTERESTED IN. I WILL NOT DO BUSINESS WITH PEOPLE WHO DON"T APPRECIATE THE CUSTOMER PERIOD!!

Good assortment of gear. I have always been treated very kindly. Prices are competitive for the most part. Definitely worth a stop if you have any gear needs.

Half military surplus store and half flea market. Fleamarket side is junk but the surplus side is decent. Lots of clothing and uniforms, some collectibles (all overpriced), and a variety of random odds and ends with varying pricing decency. Staff was semi personable and I could see this being an ok local place but prices just helped me to the door empty handed honestly.

This surplus store has a wide selection of true surplus. Stuff that I had not seen since I was a kid in the 1980's. Awesome stock.

Excellent selection of supplies and service was top notch. I was very pleased because this seems to be the only military surplus store in the central Arkansas area.

It was definitely worth the drive. Their selection is enormous! Staff was very accommodating and willing to cut a good deal.

A big joke. Owner told me he sales real military goods. Never seen any units in pink or purple. A real disappointment. A hour of my life I will never get back.
