thanks for all the support more videos on surplus gear coming soon
Blackie you forgot to mention one thing. The smell . All big Military Surplus stores have that same
musty smell. It smells like.....victory. With a little defeat and we never left the barrack thrown in.
I Called Kaufman's a few days ago to order ny " Canteen, Cold Weather " after i saw B;lackie show
the video of the one he bought there. I spoke to Jennifer and she was very nice and helpful. I bought
my Canteen and cover for $30.00 and shipping to Cherr'ville, NC was only about $7.00.
Thanks Blackie for the referral.
Thank you for the info. Not a bad deal at all.
Hunted quail not far from you in Shelby.
Was that quail with the feathers or Dan Quail you hunted?@@akbychoice
I think I speak for most of us when I say my wife absolutely hates my surplus addiction..
Once my daughter is grown enough to fit all the size S gear I bought on sale, it'll all work out 😅
Mine too- every time I get something, she says "What do you need that for"?
Her: "You don't need that"
Me:"I didn't need a wife, but I wanted one "
@nprwikeepa6082
Oh my gosh I love going to a good army surplus store! My husband couldn't care less about any of it.
So I just prefer to go by myself.
It's just a real drag being all excited about it, enthusiastically picking things up, only to have the person with you be impatient/bored lurking around the perimeter of the store go- "huh. cool." all ready to leave in 5 min. 👎
Pass! 💃🏻 lol
@@hagman1077
Sounds like my husband. 🙄
I'm like, are you kidding me? I "need" aLL of it!
Lame. I don't get it.
I mean, look at the state of things..... every item ice got here will be of use and make life that much more doable in a less than optimal situation.
@@Jane.Doe.ugh I was my wife was like this 😮
Dang... What a candy store! Thanks for sharing Blackie🤠
glad to
That place is huge and a person could spend a day there easily.
You are correct
I could spend week their that was awesome
Thanks
Those jackets are from Germany
Wow, that is an incredible toy box! Google Maps says it is a 5 hour drive from my house. That’s gonna make a good weekend trip.
It’s meant to be !
Have fun n God bless
its only 20 minutes from geneva state forest lake the place i hold my gathings you can drive down go to the store then go camp at lake for 2bucks for the night
@@BLACKIETHOMAS That is good to know. Thanks for the info.
Here in Montreal, Canada, most our surplus stores are about the size of a corner store up to an average clothing store size. This one is a place to get lost for a full weekend!
yes it is
Was just there Monday the folks are super nice. Found some quick clot bandages a Israeli bandage and neck gaiter. My 2 year old had a field day looking at everything.
they got tons of medic stuff
I have been told in response to a previous comment that the reason the cups for these
cold weather canteens are so scarce is that the company that makes the canteen only made
cups for the first lot they manufactured.
wow good to know
Look at that candy store. I could live there. Great video. God bless. from Glenn CATT. In Massachusetts.
thanks for watching
When the video has a smell to it. I love it.
lol oh yes
GLORIOUS..!!!! looks like I need to plan a trip from Central Florida to Alabama..!!!
those Korean war wool shirts are about bullet proof, I bought two of them 30 years ago and they are still going strong. My son appropriated one during highschool and wore it as a coat, cant kill them. Buy your 12 year old a small one and his kid will be able to take it out of storage and wear it.
good point
We used to have stores like this in *kanada.* All are gone now, and "surplus" has apparently transformed into Unicorns.
Thanks for the memories, Blackie!
What an amazing and large place for quality kit 🏆
Greetings from Norway
Thanks for watching!
G'Day from Australia,
Really enjoyed the walk through your local army surplus store. It reminded me of a now gone surplus store in Melbourne. It was run by two brothers who always seemed to be having a barney/row but they had all sorts of surplus equipment. Ex-British/Commonwealth gear mostly but some WW2 and later US issue. We used to have a chain of surplus stores that went under the name of "Aussie Disposals" and they were everywhere. Now they only seem to operate from their original huge warehouse and on line. I used to love browsing around their stores and buying practical, robust gear for camping, fishing and hunting. I still have some ex-OZ army clothing that doesn't seem to wear out! Most of the surplus gear that I've picked up of late has been bought at garage sales. Thanks for all your videos. I've learned a lot from them.
Cheers,
Steve
thanks for watching
Blackie, WOW my kinda store . I was in Nashville, TN. yesterday I went by Friedman's Army-Navy Surplus did buy a few things .Thank You for sharing, I will be giving the ladies call .Thanks Again. Tim L. U.S.Army Vet.
That is awesome!
Dave from Reallybigmonkey1 has so much surplus in his basement, the Georgia National Guard occasionally calls him to borrow some…..🤣 That place has some good stuff, too bad I’m in Southern California to far away.
good news the ladies will ship
I love his channel too
I could disappear in there for days. Thanks, Blackie.
yep bring a flashlight
Hi Blackie, greeting from Australia 🇦🇺 thank you for your time to make these videos.
thank you for watching
We used to have plenty of Military Surplus store in NZ. Sadly only one is left in my city. It is a good store but yours is a small city in itself. Thanks for the tour Blackie.
Thanks so much Blackie. I will be giving them a call here after the outdoors show is behind me.
Thank you for the tour Blackie. Wish I the store was closer to me, would really like to shop there.
Any time!
Very nice tour Blackie, thanks for sharing, God bless !
Glad you enjoyed it
I haven't seen a surplus Store like that in a long time. I miss the days when you could find barrels of surplus rifles in stores like this one.
Snapper i was there in march its BIG 🥴
@Bucky1836 Lucky, I haven't seen anything like this since I was a kid.
you should come check it out
@blackoracle69 hopefully some day, it would be fun.
Greetings Blackie- That sure is a cool place and one could spend quite a while looking around, for sure. Ive got some stuff I need to get rid of and sell. I remember using those arctic canteens years ago up in Alaska, along with mittens, bear suits, over whites, magnesium snow shoes and skis. If I ever get down that way to Talladega again for the races, Ill have to stop by. Thanks for giving us a tour. You have a good weekend- Carry On-
thanks for watching
The flag on the field jacket is Belgian. Looks to be from 60s I think or maybe early 70s as after that they have been using their unique ''jigsaw'' camo. I got an old Belgian ''paracommando'' rucksack online in olive drab, cost next to nothing, not the most comfortable or ergonomic but tough as nails and use it as a bike rack pannier.
thanks
I love shopping in places like that.
I got a set of the Arctic mittens in my garage!! 25 years in the army and I should open my own army surplus!! 🇺🇸 🇳🇿
thank you for your service
Wow! Good deals. That's awesome.
Thank you for the memories from when I was growing up in San Francisco! They had several Surplus Stores that I would spend numerous afternoons browsing around.
That is awesome!
They an't the same, when I was a kid (50s and early 60's) and if you can manage to save $2.00, usually from cutting lawns, that was a whole Saturday afternoon of shopping. You can actually buy American ww2 military surplus. Now they called collectibles and charged hundreds of times what I paid. Free market supply and demand. I still half a dozen m1 carbine pouches which I paid 10cent each and a couple Collins and Shefield machetes with sheaths for 1.50 ea., long gone days and fond memories. 😊
Wow that place is huge! I wish they were located near me.
They are online my friends when you go looking for e store use the name of the town and state and the name of the store
Hi Blackie, thanks for the tour! You've got yourself a gold mine there. Appreciate the info. What a great store, I could spend days in there! When I was a kid, I remember a huge store like that named Silverstein's here in Michigan, it was huge too. But sadly, it's long gone.👍👍
they are drying up for sure glad i got this one
Mein Gott! I need to get to Alabama. We still have a few good surplus stores in Oklahoma but this is another level. In OK, for the Tulsa area, I recommend Weekender Surplus in Broken Arrow, OK as its a small mom and pop store with all real milsurp. For OKC I recommend Brigadoon Surplus. Other great locations are Omaha's in Fort Worth, TX is excellent as is The Bunker in Farmington, NM.
There was a small milsurp shop in Cheyenne, WY by the name of Sergeant's I think. If its still there its worth dropping by. A little cramped but great to dig through.
thanks for the info
I remember back in the day, those stores were full of surplus WW2 gear. Benefit of growing up in the 1960’s
Thanks for the video, I'd be like a kid in a candy shop. I'll be making a call.
Cool tour Blackie! Wish we had places like this in Sweden
they will ship to you but i am sure the shipping will be pricey
I can smell it here.😊
Nice store! Lucky to have that close
If I ever get finished with my house I'll have to do a road trip there!
sounds like a plan
I might be digging for 3 days, but I'd be broke in 30 minutes. I wish I had a surplus store like that around my area. We have one about half the size of a Dollar General.
oh yea bring money and a flashlight lol
Thats amazing. Thanks for sharing.
That is a Great Surplus Store
And video
Thanks for get back go over some of the gear. Really look great but it’s hard to buy it on the wall by video.
I’ve gotten several items from them and they’ve always been big. They do such a great job.
Thanks for sharing
Beautiful my country dissent have these kind of stores and I miss em
Road trip! Got them issue long snow shoes. Love them.
Canteen 35 bucks and up on ebay. Great price there.
it really is
Yessss you’re the best for this !
thank you
Wow. Stumbled upon your video just in time for what i wss looking. Great content Sir. Didn'thave to think twice to Sub. Appreciate it.
I just ordered a Arctic Canteen and a used ACU woobie. So cool to talk to the LADY's!! Thanks Blackie!
i wish you many years of adventures with it
Wow! Great place! Wish we had one! All ours have closed down.
This is great Blackie
glad to help
Now I know why the surplus stores in my area suck....they got all of it.
seems that way
I’m gonna need a frame and shoulder straps for my new Blackie pack and haversack when they come in. 😊
the straps look on walmart.com i got mine for under 15 bucks as to the frame the ladies will set you up
I ordered a combat tent, poncho, and canteen stove. Received it in three days. Like new thanks for the tip 👍, already use the stuff
My type of place. This is great!
I e been there with Blackie and I can tell you he only scratched the surface of the things they have. Thanks for bringing this to us that may need more to build our kits. Thanks brother
thanks for camping with me brother
I haven't come across a place like this in a very long time. I must search for one.
My good lord I could spend all day in that place and spend a whole bunch of money!!!!!
goedenavond Blackie ARDIG Winkeltje !!!👍
thank you
Wow! That a road trip worthy store. Thanks Blackie.
Hats off to you Blackie ! This show has got to be one of your best ever ! Used to have a great surplus store in Abilene , Texas called Taylor's Army Surplus and I spent many a happy hour there and more than a few dollars . Sadly it burned several years ago . Kaufmans looks like a paradise and I'm going to give them a call . Many thanks for this show .
thanks for watching
I would go absolutely 100% broke in that store lol!
so can i
I used to get Kaufmans West Catalogs and I believe that store was in NM. I'm from Canada and I ordered stuff from them from time to time and had it shipped up to Canada.
I drive truck and have had opportunity to shop at a military surplus store in Idaho Falls ID. I'm hoping the Kaufmanns has an online store, I'll check it out.
That Idaho falls store has a on line store I stop there to when I'm in town great store
@ponyboy481 I think I did know they have an online store, but it's so much more fun shopping in person. I'm a Canadian truck driver, some items cannot be shipped to Canada, silly rules or whatever. It's not the store that dictates what can or cannot be shipped. For example, tried ordering a multi tool, unable to ship anything with a blade because of stupid Canadian regulations.
@willyreimer8042 that's stupid
I'm a truck driver too I don't get up there to often so I do the on line thing only because they have the best prices
Blackie ever since you mention the depot Ivw bought alot of gear from them. Excellent customer service n delivery. 🇺🇲👍🏻👍🏻
thanks for your comment
I guess the days of true army/navy surplus stores are gone.. looks like now it's just another high price retail store. This surplus is super easy to obtain on your own for a tenth of the price..
very interesting shop to find clothes to work in and tools to work with. we don't have such shops anymore in my country; i shouldn't know where to buy real army pants and boots shop smells good. most of our tools came from such a shop welders spades axes compressors lights batteries knives lamps
Wish they had a website to order from.
the one they do have is not updated too much stuff rolls in and out to keep up
December vacation plans, may include a visit. From Florida.
sounds good
I bought one of those IBNS tents from them ( at 11:13 ) when I was at your gathering this spring.
That and a tarp makes for a good ground pounder setup.
i hope you have many years of adventures with it
Bigger than any AS store I’ve been in. Use to get a lot of military gear from the Base clearing lots, found lots of great deals. Used the mittens trapping in the 80’s. Military mukluks light and warm, Bunny VB boots are worth their weight in gold for extreme cold.
Field jacket with the flag you didn't id is Belgium
cool thanks
I could sure walk out of there with a pile of stuff.😅
I would love to find a XXXL vietnam-era jacket
gonna have to go ebay for that those guys back then were small in the army finding an ex large was tough in the 80's today it all but impossible only the navy had big cooks
Didn't make them that size then
I would like to see you do a project from something out of that place
will do
WOW! Thanks for the tour! That place has way more than the one in my town. Awesome!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you
You're welcome
Easily the coolest place I've ever seen. We don't have anything remotely like that where I live.
thanks for watching
When I die I hope heaven looks like that store! But maybe with a bar…and some cute waitresses! 😂😂😂
lol
I could get in trouble in a place like this but whole bunch of stuff lol
If it's that big can I just live there?
Would love some of those 5 button sweaters. I've owned the Korean wool shirts for years and they are fantastic! Thanks for showing us Blackie.
call the ladies they will set you up
Hi Sir I'm drulling now
Good 👍
Wow this is great I wish like in Germany we have a kind of place like this!🎉❤
Good thing that shop is thousands of miles from me...
ARMY is enough for me
Never been in a surplus store that the isles didn’t get narrower as you went along. Can’t even get in ours. In a wheelchair. Prices sure have gone up since I was a kid (68 now).
I guess it's just like the military . You could equip You Own Army right there !
Thank you Blackie for showing use a round its was awesome do they have a website are they on Facebook
they do but it is better to call them 334-898-1770 they will hand select for ya if you tell them blackie sent me
Hey Blackie I just want to tell you how much I appreciated and enjoyed this Army Surplus tour. It was amazing! 💯
Thank you so much Sir!
I'm going to be calling them for some stuff for sure 👍
Much love and God bless
- from a (size small) girl in the northern Colorado Rocky mountains 🙋♀️
PS- It was so good that I subscribed - def keep these surplus gear vids a coming!
glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for showing us that store.
Any time!
Thanks for the tour Blackie. I'll be placing an order soon. That copper band on your left wrist - I have a friend that had one like that soldered around his wrist by the South Vietnamese. Is that where you got yours? You don't really look old enough.
The bed bugs gotta be crazy on the small medium inventory.
Thank you for this upload Blackie
My pleasure!
🇺🇸👍🇺🇸👍🇺🇸👍
That place is great, nothing like that up here in New England. Thanks Blackie
my pleasure
Oh boy i could spend a lot of money in that store😂😂
