A Mountain Of Gear


We have been VERY busy at OAR this past week.
Over the weekend we picked up a huge amount of primarily hunting gear.
When I dumped it all in a pile on the floor beside the counter we had a mountain of gear three feet high, and all I could think was "Awesome!!  Now where the heck am I going to put it all?"
It took three days, tons of cleaning and researching and labelling and fixture installing but.....we got it all done, and now we have some totally cool stuff to offer the local outdoor adventure community.
Holsters, saddle bags, duffel bags, back packs, hunting books, ammo pouches, rifle cases, more camo hunting jackets and vests. 
Lots more.

At the top of the post is a Bianchi, western rig belt and holster for single action 45 cal, 34 inch waist. A link to a site that has many good pictures of the same belt:


Mountainsmith Cross Country II internal frame multi-day pack for sale. This awesome pack is brand new, still with tags, and comes with detachable day pack.
Vintage military ski poles (we believe they're from the 60's).

We have a number of strong and sturdy canvas duffel bags in sizes ranging from small to large.
There are both Cabelas and Dunns brands, and they are all clean and in excellent condition.
One of my favorite people brought this beautiful jacket in for consignment a week or so ago.
A Tri Mountain Mens XL jacket. Large external side zippered pockets and one external zip chest pocket, lined, multiple ventilation points.
An awesome jacket for a big guy.
OK........these pictures have absolutely nothing to do with the store but we think they're awesome pictures anyway.
Last weekend our sweet old pup Jamie was sitting and looking out through the screen door at the front of the house.
When she started to growl I thought that she had seen a bunny or a cat (both of which we have in abundance in the area, and James would happily rip them to shreds if she had the chance).
Instead, when I looked outside I saw these guys grazing on our neighbor's front lawn.
The other picture is an old wagon we have at the edge of our driveway.
I love that thing.

A S&W ammo belt, 30 cal, 34 inch waist, and a Broadus Boot and Tack , Tracy Fruit Maker ammo belt, 45-70 cal, 34-36 inch waist.
Two pairs of Simms boots.
One has a felt sole.  The other has a leather sole that is screwed to the upper.
They are both in excellent shape and are very high quality.

Just a reminder that ex, retired and currently serving military and law enforcement receive 25% off all of their OAR purchases throughout the month of May.
Our very small way of saying thank you for your service.
A beautiful table for sale, made of reclaimed wood that was salvaged locally, antlers, rope and new Plexiglas.
It is a lovely piece that we have used at the store to display some of the natural decorative items we have in one dedicated space in the store, but we would love to find it a new home.
