They has trash cans in the sporting goods isles, full of long guns for next to nothing.

I remember them well. We had two back in Lawton and I remember them in a few other towns I believe Duncan was one of them. It was like the original Walmart. Matter of fact, I still have a box of .45 from them.

Bought my first S&W at the Gibsons store in Alva. They had a K-22 that I bought and two .357s. One was a Ruger Blackhawk and the other was a Colt SAA. Both same price. My comment at the time was why would someone buy that Colt with standard sights when they could get one with adjustable sights for same price. Little did I know.

I used to walk from step dads house to Gibsons along Route 66 picking up pop bottles and if I was lucky a hub cap, I’d sell those and go to Gibsons and by boxes or bricks of Federal .22LR. I had to find at least one hubcap to buy a brick.

Gibson in Ada ! Next to the National Guard Armory that blew up.
When I was a kid we raised about 40 hogs out by Byng. We would go to Gibson's in Ada about once a week and pick up their old produce. They put it in 55 gallon barrels. We would pick out anything worth human consumption and give the rest to the hogs. Occasionally we would hit the jack pot and find some frozen creme pies that were past their sale date.
