Saw a trailer with a academy sign on it on a construction site in Olive Branch. Maybe a new atore.
I heard they was building one across from the Target in OB
I went to the grand opening in Collierville. Was told a store in Southaven would be next year when they found a location. They opened one in Bartlett instead.
My daughter called as soon as they won the contract for construction in Olive Branch.
Oh,,, happy day!
They are fixing to build one in Tupelo also
Now all Tupelo needs is a boat dealer
Not enough money there. You done got it all. [emoji12]Quote:

I grew up going to Academy in Texas they are a awesome sporting goods store with a huge fishing department looking forward to the Tupelo Academy opening
My last 3 trip to BPS with a shopping list, I left empty handed.
A sportsmans warehouse would be betterQuote:

Over in BAMA
I called Academy a few days ago. They said the OB store was slated to open in April. That has been pushed back to July. I look forward to their open. May even try for a part time job.
On a face book group a person said the Collierville store was clearing shelf space for reloading supplies. Hope they carry more than primers and a few tools.
The Collierville store is almost a dog gone shoe store. Is that the norm for Academy?
Not the Academy in Cape Girardeau. Their fishing dept. rocks!!! Good gun selection and camping dept. also.Quote:

cricket,,,,, if your looking for reloading stuff,, check out Avery Superstore in Memphis,,,,355 Cumberland Rd.....Right now they are selling off everything to pay the bills sorta thing,,,,They are selling even their guns right now at cost.... I just picked up a savage 220 slug gun in stainless and Camo for like $530 bucks,,,Anyway,, they had a huge inventory of reloading stuff at prices that even bass pro counted beat,,,Quote:

cricket,,,, My buddy Tim used to run the gun dept and he did a jam up job with inventory and buying things guys needed and wanted for range shooting and just plain Ol reloading,,,, He was a comepetetion shooter himself,,,Once Tim found out owners split ways, He decided to give them his notice and is no longer there,,, But the prices are crazy low now.. Well worth the time to go check out what they have,, If your looking for anything you can't see,,,, He keeps powder in back of store in powder room if it's not out front,, so ask before you give up on finding something,,, same thing with the handguns,,, They keep them in rear in safe area... Glocks for like $525.. Smokin deals
Thanks for telling bout Avery. I am looking for a shotgun for my son. I will go by there tomorrow
