Military Surplus

[Itchytriggerfinger]

My youngest son wants some camo for Christmas. All I can find are hunting styles in stores. Do the surplus stores on the east side carry more military grade patterns? Will I have luck finding adult large clothing before Christmas locally?

Don't know about local but you can let your itchy trigger fingers do the walking at:

sportsmansguide.com
tacticalgear.com

And probably a host of other sites. Good luck in your search.

Indianapolis Army Navy on 21st and Arlington used to have all kinds of military camo. I haven't been in there in a while though but assume they still do. They are still open.

I ordered a few things online from tactical gear but it doesn't look like it'll arrive by Christmas.

Thanks. I'm heading down there soon and then swinging by the place on Washington Street.

Washington street is a safe bet. Good selection but sometimes they seem to be a little proud of some items.

Sitting outside waiting for them to open. I can't worry about the price. As we all know, necessity is never a bargain. I'm guilty of being the last minute gift dad so I'm kinda used to it by now.

They are still open and have actually made some great improvements. Depends what kind of camo you are looking for but they have several types. Kind of a cool old neighborhood shop that has been around forever. I have bought a crap ton of camping gear in there. I live pretty close so I stop in and chew the fat every few weeks

Edit- BTW they are only open 9a-6p. Oh and a tiny little food joint out front has about the best philly cheesesteak I have ever had in my life

Ended up stopping by both places. 21st street store definitely had more new stuff and was more organized than the Washington Street store. Neither seemed excessively priced for true surplus but both were expensive if you wanted new. I picked up a few things from both buy in the future I'll definitely be ordering online.

Buying online would be cheaper, but I don't mind dropping a few extra bucks at my neighborhood surplus store especially since all three or four employees are veterans & good people.
