You want a Louisiana based store to be the biggest. I get it. They are an incredible account. And I have a funny story about Alabama Simmons, Louisiana Simmons and a tractor trailer load of steel shot. They get each other’s orders all the time.
I am not belittling Simmons. Damn, a guy asked if they were the biggest and I answered. But since it seems to piss you off.
May I also present Adventure Outdoors in Smyrna, GA. They have 80,000 square feet of retail and range.
Smoky Mountain Knife Works has over 100,000 square feet of retail space.
To really piss you off, here is a Yankee family in Ohio that has a 75,000 square foot store. Super nice too.
Simmons is jam up. But one guy asked if there was a larger privately owned outdoor store in the country. I answered and now it is a pissing match.

That's not the case at all. I grew up around here and have given Foambutt more of my money than I care to admit. Wouldn't mind never giving him a cent, but that won't happen. I appreciate his store but I'm far from a knight.
I was just saying it's the bigger store (what you walk around in) having been to Mack's and googling how big Roger's store was. In reality I don't care at all

I upvoted you.
Simmons is an incredible store. Simmons Louisiana. There is an incredible Simmons in Alabama too, completely unrelated. There are lots of good outdoor stores with good people trying to do customers right while making a living. The last year has been hard for many as the whole industry is down.
And there are a few not as good. And a few that are just shitty, but they tend to weed themselves out.
And I will step out of this thread now.
