Academy had some Aquila shells for $7.97 a box while ago. That was in Rockwall. May call and ask other places.

Bass Pro /Cabelas in Garland and Allen were out of the $7.98 shells in 12 gauge

The old Gibson's stores in north, central texas, had a great sporting goods dept! Remember dad and i used
to buy 12's 20ga for 1.79 box right before opening season. No discounts for case lots, those were the days,
used to register .22 ammo logged in, for .39cents a box, but had to be 21 or older to buy them because they
counld be fired in a hand gun!

times have changed!

Ammo prices have basically trippled in the last 12 years, freaking crazy. Haven't been a lot of birds where I hunt, still have 3 boxes from the case I bought 2 years ago.

Still a Gibson's in Weatherford. Pretty decent outdoor department considering size. Big on waterfowl stuff with lots of Sitka but some decoys and waders. I haven't priced shotgun shells but they had some steel a couple years ago when I couldn't find any.


No matter how high a duck flies a hammer still breaks a window.

If i remember my old mind, Seagoville TX was main head quarters for that store at the time, not sure if Gibsons
today is a spinoff of original or complete another retail venture. Was no waiting period then, filled out yellow sheet
form, paid for the item, check or cash and walked out the door!

The Gibson’s in Weatherford is great. Takes me back to my youth and they do have a really nice outdoor section and a ton of guns.
