Military Surplus in Omaha/Lincoln Area
« on: July 23, 2014, 12:04:37 PM »
I have had some trouble finding good places in the Omaha/Lincoln area that have any good military surplus gear. Stopped by Canfields a couple of weeks ago and wasn't to impressed. My search online hasn't really revealed anything so if anyone knows someplace or someone that deals in US military surplus gear lets lets hear it.

If you go back to Canfield's, ask for Scott Marble, the owner.  Tell him that Toby Asplin sent you and then let him know the kinds of things you're looking for.

+1 for AM Surplus.  It's a son and mom operation and have a neat little museum in back.  Prices are really good also along with a good selection of stuff.

Canfields is monster expensive.  I'd stay away from Canfields as much as I can.

There a business from Kansas that comes up to some of the local gun shows.  Lot's of stuff.  Decent prices.
Depending on what you are looking for, there are a few guys on Craigslist selling off things.

I like Canfields but yes, they can be a little higher than you can find elsewhere.  But it is always good quality and it is a great local business.

There is one over on Saddle Creek near Poppleton but it is tiny and I have never made the opportunity to check it out.

If you are looking for great selection try the old sarge  http://oldsargesdropzone.com/  but they are out of NY so not anywhere near local of course.
