Grew up down the road from this store. Always loved stopping or passing by when I was a kid. They'd put cool stuff out front and on the roof.

Clayton sucks

Wow, a surplus store that actually sells more surplus than cheap replicas and casual civvies in camo? Amazing.

Hey! I'm at work there right now and a customer recommended us to this video. Me and my co-worker just watched it. Thanks for the love and support!

I need to restock my claymores and grenades. Lol

Super little shop 👍

We drive through Clayton at least once a year,but I never knew that a place like this was there.That place is bigger than the one in Greenville SC,so I will definitely be making a stop by this store.

I grew up two blocks off of Yadkin BLVD in Fayetteville, so many good memories of the surplus shops on yadkin . I’ll have to check this place out, it looks awesome .

Good video, this is a great store I used to visit it often when i worked in that area, always came out with something 👍

Smith & Edwards in Farr West, UT used to be like that before they cleaned a lot of the outdoor yard out. It's still a lot like that though. It's like a Cabela's, Wal*Mart, Tractor Supply, Ace Hardware + Military Surplus all rolled into one. If you're out that way, don't miss it !!

Love surplus stores, but too many are loaded with civilian "military-type" crap; may look the part but it's Chinese made junk. That $64.95 bag you looked at; had a "Rothco" tag. I've found they make some of the cheapest quality stuff there is. Looks good at first, but falls apart quickly. Use your money for genuine MREs!

We had a GI Joes in South East Virginia when I was growing up as a kid during the 80's.

I loved that place, spent some good time and money in there. I used to live down the road on hwy42 near flowers plantation.

This is an organized shop! The one by me that i find the old rations at, has stuff tucked away in all corners. Fun treasure hunt though.

Thank you!! You have no idea how many times I’ve driven by from Garner. I need to make a stop.

Certainly hard tgo find a good surplus store especially here in Australia. Nice bag the Rothco. If you are getting anything bigger than that, definately go for a ALICE or framed molle pack. Get over 10kg that air flow really counts. There are other framed mesh backs at Anaconda if you got one nearby too

If I ever go through NC in my life remind me to stop by and check out the store

Ha, Clayton! I knew I recognized it. I haven't been there in a few years.

Just gotta say that your southern belle accent is just soooooo fine... Love it soooooo much...♡♡♡♡♡

Hum, I need to check this place out ! It's a bit of a drive from Concord, but I'm up to it. Some people on here say this is "JUNK" store, but I think they're missin tha point. Some say ya can get this stuff at a flee market, maybe so, but they're missin tha point. It's stores like this that are vanishing, pretty soon, they'll be gone. This place kinda reminds me of a mom and pops place, how many of those do you still see ? It wouldn't surprise me if most of the stuff in this store isn't made in China, but then again, what isn't ? I still remember as a kid going into a real Army Navy surplus store in the early 60's and lookin at what they had. They're all gone now.. I like to support small town stores when I can, a lot of times, you can find what others don't have to offer. With this Covid crap goin on, I ain't sittin around, I'll be on the road somewhere, and Clayton sounds like a nice place to visit... My point is this, you don't have to buy nuttin, you don't even have to go there, but don't knock a place until you go into business for yourself and make a difference.

Got a GI Joe's Surplus in San Diego that has old stuff from Pendleton in Oceanside! Everything for Zombies!

Nice presentation, you walked right by the load out kits though :/

This is North Carorlina which is cool in all and cool video. In the North (Delaware, Maryland, PA, etc.) we got WWI, WWII, and Veitnam stuff. I would have to say the shops I go to have the best Cold War and German WWI and WWII stuff. Sometimes I wish we had good military surplus stores but all we got is anquite store but they contain great WWI German medel bars and more stuff. Which I happy for but cool store. Also are you ok cause a hurricane hit there recently. Just making sure and have a good one!

Don’t know if you got that bag yet, but to be honest, as a US Army Veteran and tons of field experience because my MOS was as a Forward Observer, I would say that you’re better off looking for a better quality civilian camping backpack with good shoulder and back support. If you’re concerned about covering it up with camouflage you can get camouflage pack covers to put over it. I bought a huge Coleman brand camping backpack, used, at a Salvation Army store really cheap. New it’s worth over $100, but it only cost me $17! And it’s in great shape. I buy a lot of camping gear at second hand stores for my personal use and for my Civil Air Patrol Cadets. I have 4 military rucksacks and tons of other gear that I get at surplus stores, but I actually love that Coleman bag best because it’s designed for long distance carry and is very light on my back even when fully loaded with equipment. The lighter weight of the best civilian equipment is better than the heavier military gear and most of it can be camouflaged if needed. It’s great to support local businesses and especially the surplus stores, but it’s also smart to stretch your buck with great deals on equipment that works. That way you can get more MRE’s. Just my opinion.

And this is the reason why I support the US DoD high budget of defense

Looks like a great store.

@@GianaChloe1011 I'm gonna have to go check em' out just specifically because I see they carry real military MRE's, I never buy the clear packaged civilian type and that seems to be the only thing most places carry these days. Also, I can't believe you walked right past the polypropylene thermals and didn't mention them, those things are the best cold weather gear ever! Even though summer is nearly here I just bought two more tops and two more bottoms from the flea market for less than a buck each. Next time you're in the store you outta check em' out, they say ECWCS on the package and it stands for Extended Cold Weather Clothing System. I talk about them very briefly in my new Surplus Flea Market Score video and show off some other cool finds too.

I miss when Fleet Farm sold army surplus 😢

So am I hearing correct that these items belong to veterans? And if so are customers required to file up the phone?

I wish that these military surplus stores had more bulletproof vest and bulletproof army helmets, it would be useful for people that want to use the gear for hunting in areas where there are animals like bears, cougars, panthers, wolves, etc. In Florida we have things like bears, florida panthers, coyote's, and wild hogs.

I've been going there since I was a teenager and I'm 57 now . Back in the old days they carried a lot more stuff

Looks like you need to take that drive to Fayetteville (not something I would recommend for literally any other reason) and hit general jacksons. Or come on up to Alexandria VA and check out full metal jacket once this Corona fuckery is finally figured out

Sad that we don't have Army-Navy stores anymore up in the Northlands.
