Sears used to sell guns and even sold Sears brand guns. The .22 I cut my teath on was a Montgomery Ward.

I have a 35 remington made by JC Higgins and also a single shot 16 gauge JC Higgins that my grandfather bought out of the Sears catalog.

heck yea! Woolworths Dept. Store used to sell WW2 surplus rifles in the late 60's/early seventies too.

[alismith]

Did I read that Sears ad correctly? Their upper has a 14.7" barrel? That had to be something else, right?

Late 80's too! I fondled a Garand at Woolworths!

Mine too. Still have it.

Yep, Sears, JC Penny's, "Monkey Wards", Otasco (regional chain) and even Western Auto were great places to buy guns and ammo back in the good ol' days. My first serious shotgun was a Sears' Ted Williams (Winchester) 20 gauge, ordered out of the catalog.

[Broondog]

so.....you can buy gun stuff from Sears but they are quite unfriendly to gun carry in their stores. i for one will not patronize Sears anymore nor will i buy online from them.

there are many other stories such as the one above. just an FYI.

[Polish Boy]

did anybody else search gun on sears? Have to say I am kinda surprised.

[Maser**]

I've been able to pick up a lot of "accessories" for my stuff at Toys R Us. Great prices to.

Don't forget Coast to Coast stores. My first 22 and 12 gauge, both Marlins, were bought at the local C to C.

Ill second Western Auto for guns, My 12 gauge is marked Western Auto. Its a rebadged Mossy 500.

I know Sears has a long history connected w/ guns but I have no idea why a toy store would be selling bore sights?

They're measuring it wrong. These .22 conversions have an extended barrel that reaches back almost an inch and a half further into the receiver than the .223/5.56 setup, so it has the same overall length as an M4 rifle, but actually has a 16" long rifled barrel.
