I remember the Kmart in my hometown on the Jersey Shore New Jersey actually sold firearms and bowling balls and you can have your bowling ball size to your fingers.
I’m in my early forties that I used to love to go to Kmart with my mom and go over the Sporting Goods section.
They used to have all the shotguns ammunition fishing stuff.
When I go to the Walmart here in Marietta in the the Sporting Goods section reminds me of the Kmart in 1980.
So happy I live in Georgia.
I can identify your Nostalgia I think.
Life was normal. I am a bit older but not much. 52
I saw that box at 13 and had no idea what it was. My Dad had passed some 8 months earlier. My Mom was the greatest.
I opened up that package that had a real firearm that was MINE for Christmas.
It was quite a moment for me.
