Just reminiscing and wondered;
Are there any hardware, feed stores or other retail businesses that still sell guns?
I remember when Sears, Penney's , Monty Ward, hardware stores, OTASCO, Western Auto etc. used to sell guns.
Other than Atwood's I can't think of any that still do.
Any one know of such a store?
Thanks in advance.

Gibson's in Weatherford, teskeys in Weatherford
And the Walmarts out here still do, but I don't count them

Gebo's in Lubbock still stocks guns; in fact, in the last few years they've tripled the size of their inventory. They have a pretty good selection these days.

I remember seeing Smith & Wesson revolvers in the display case at the local drugstore and pharmacy back in the 60s. In my neck of the woods there is an Orscheln's that sells a few firearms and I've even seen Hodgdon powders on the shelf. There's a feed and supply outfit in Graham thar sells firearms. That's where I first saw the Sig P938...haven't been in Graham since we lost our Theockmorton lease five or six years ago.

I forgot all about Gibson's in Weatherford and Kerrville!
Both carry a pretty impressive selection.

Orschelins got bought out by TSC , a few of their stores that were already close to a TSC got bought by Baumguars. The one in Weatherford is in the process of transfering. Their FFL went through and they are selling guns again. I bet the ones that TSC got will stop selling guns unfortunately.
Talking about throckmorton made me remember, the feed store in archer city sells guns. They had quite a few for the size of the store.

They also have excellent (but not cheap or fast) gunsmiths.

Drugstore in DeLeon, Ace hardware in Brady. DeLeon had 5 AR10s on sale for $799 but I couldn’t get there. Mills County General Store in Goldthwaite has a small selection of guns and ammo.
