Been to Sinclair's Army Surplus Lately?

[Dixie_Amazon]

I went to Sinclair's in July to look for another heavy canvas backpack for one of my sons. In general their stock was really low at the time and most of the lights were off.

I was thinking of going by today or early next week and was wondering if anyone had been by recently and how did it seem to you?

That's him. If I'm remembering right he was Navy, why call your place Sgt?

He does have a good inventory of different things.
Prices are very reasonable too.

I was afraid that was the direction it was headed. Thanks for the heads up.

Sinclairs had been in decline ever since they moved from Florida Blvd.

Been to the store on Joor & Denham. Plenty of clothing.

Sinclairs was on Florida? I thought it was on Airline, well at least where the old Sinclairs I knew of was. I rented a building on the corner where Sinclairs use to be, got to get some signs to point to the back, but I think people will take the easy detour for guns.

For many moons, Sinclair's was located on Florida, near McGehee, where "Big Boy Toys" is currently located.

When I was a boy, Sinclair's was on Joor road close to Denham road.
It was a great shop, filled with many fascinating things for a young boy.

Funny thing -- When I was a boy Sinclairs did have a ton of stuff and looked like they did well on Joor Road. Moved twice and is now shut down.

Now a new shop is starting out just off of Joor Road.
