Stores that no longer sell firearms.

My first shotgun came from Target.

I always laugh about how horrified mamy people in Boulder would be to know that their Target once sold guns.

I was born in '56 in OK, and I remember all kinds of places that sold guns. One of the best places in town was a small family-owned drugstore chain. The best place to buy the coolest gun-type toys was the local Safeway store.

Yer old.

Safeway and Piggly Wiggly for candy cigarettes and cigar gum. Our local 5&10 was the best place for toy guns.

my first new gun came from Kmart. I was 14. Also bought a bowling ball from them 10 or 15 years ago. They drilled it right in the store, next to the guns. Boy times have changed. The worst part is I'm not even 40 . I can only imagine how I'll be "looking back" when I'm in my 60's.

This was my dad at 60.

I bought my first handgun from Garts brothers (now sports authority) which no longer sells guns. At one point Sports authority had stopped selling guns altogether. I also bought a hand gun from Gallyans which was my favorite sporting goods store for ages (now Dicks) and they no longer sell handguns.

Service Merchandise used to have decent prices on the handful of guns they sold. I haven't seen one of those in years.

Man, I bought my first gun ever (a Mossberg 500) at a Service Merchandise in Fishkill, NY when I was 18yo...that was a LONG time ago...hahaha. I still have that gun. Works like a charm.

It started with well before but "bowling for columbine" put the end to caring guns and ammo. No business wanted Michael Moore on tv telling them they contributed to killing 13 people.

I still have the Sears Model 101-10041 .410 shotgun my parents bought me when I was about 9 years old...would've been around 1969 or 1970. The squirrel population in east Texas is a lot lower because of that gun. I happened to see it in the back of the safe a week or two ago and just had to put a few rounds through it. Ahh...the memories.

I bought a Mini-14GBF and a stainless GP-100 at the Western Auto in Plattsmouth, NE back in 1988. First guns I ever bought for myself. Spent almost $700 for both of them.
