Military Surplus Stores

Looking for military surplus stores in and around Baltimore county.

There really aren't any left unfortunately. There's H&H in the city, but it's not in the nicest area.

I've been to H&H, and other than terrible parking in a sketchy neighborhood, they're not bad.

Just saw these guys opened a store in Frederick, which isn't too bad depending on where you are in Carroll Co.

Friend of mine left the store, to find two locals using the hood and windshield of his Suburban as a chaise lounge. He had just come from goose hunting on the eastern shore. He got in the car, rolled down the window and reached in the back seat and put his shotgun on the dashboard.

He asked: "You guys coming to Towson"

They decided they weren't. :party29:

Been there. Wasn't impressed. Didn't look all around, but prices on ammo boxes were ridiculous.

H&H=Fort Apache....Not

For gods sake...I lived around H&H for years. Don't let anyone dissuade you from going. It isn't in a cul de sac in Carroll County. It's not Candyland. BUT its not the worst place in the world by any stretch. GASP!!! I used to walk there on foot!!! Without being "strapped".
Awesome basement full of amazing treasure. Lots of Cold War detritus. God I wish I still lived near such a great surplus store. If you do decide to go--after you dodge sniper fire to get back to your Armored Personnel Carrier, stop by Trinacria Italian Market. Its right around the corner. Grab yourself a sandwich you won't be disappointed.

I was in H&H a couple weeks ago. Very interesting stuff in the basement there.

Ranger Surplus in Rockville --- I give it a thumbs-up --- I've been to it a number of times. They sell good mill-spec camo clothing, backpacks, shoes, camping equipment, knives, flashlights, etc etc.

For firearms: I like Duffys Gun Room --- A Class III weapons dealer

Yeah man...there is no telling what you will find down there. H&H has been around in some form or fashion since at least the 60's. I have heard the rumor that they used to carry firearms until the 68' riots put that to a stop.

Bail on them. Overpriced stuff for the tacti-cool crowd. There is some stuff that they have, that might be worth while, but I wouldn't bother with it. You would be better off with LA Police Gear or Sportsman's Guide.

I think the Ranger Surplus in Bethesda is gone. Might be wrong, I'll look again next time I venture through.

Nah it's still there. Though I think it's called the Army-Navy Surplus store or something now. Wasn't really all that impressed.

Wheaton, MD used to have a pretty cool place out by the mall. I'm sure they've gone out of business now too.

No, its gone

I was just in H&H last month. Your hard pressed to find any newer-ish type gear.
They do have a ton of crap old stuff and good condition old stuff. Even govt grey steel desks downstairs. Gauges and dials in boxes with NSN #'s and deteriorating rubber on packs that have that grey "rust". Unfortunately the newer jackets and such are to me the "Pseudo" brands...... like when you see the cheap civilian knock-off MA1 flight jacket, etc...
But still plenty of gem finds downstairs.

Yes they are gone. I used to browse in there once a week at lunch.

Don't be skeerd, just be aware. I stop by H&H a couple of times a year. Trinachria every 2 weeks.

This guy is a good fella (not quite Baltimore). Runs a surplus store out of large garage behind his house. I picked up a couple of MMSS from him for a decent price. I was thinking today I need to pop back over there.
