    One of my favorite places to visit and for shopping when I go to the US, is a military surplus store, I spend a lot of money there. As matter of fact, I spend more money there than in an actual mall store. That is why I say, God bless America 👍🇺🇸

    Thanks for the video. I grew up a few blocks from an Army surplus store, it looked very much like this one, right down to there being tables with random stuff on them, lol. They sure know how to stack it deep and to the rafters. This was like a little trip down memory lane, thanks again!

      I find it amusing that you people believe the headlines and not the truth.
      I know many people who work for BRCC and none of them are anti gun.
      Shows how stupid Americans truly have gotten over the years.
      Y'all are no better than the cancel culture commie Left.
      You get your "Information" from headlines and talking heads who have no idea what they are talking about.
      You might wanna look up how much money those guys have donated to "FPC" and other gun rights groups before you talk shit and prove you are an idiot.
      They do one time donations that are more than you make in a year.

    Its surprising when your local surplus store shows up on RUclips. It’s a great store they have an awesome Selection of items and equipment. The only bad thing I can say about that place is the prices for things have gone up a lot since 2019. I know that’s everywhere but I’ve noticed a huge spike in the prices for most surplus lately.
