This is one of the rare stores that appeals to every type of Oregonian. Outdoorspeople head for the camping gear section or grab a raft downstairs. Survivalists pick up field manuals and an 18-inch machete. And everyone else browses the mountainous array of helmets, combat boots, camouflage apparel and neon duct tape.

Willamette Week’s reporting has real-life impact that changes laws, forces action by civic leaders, and drives compromised politicians from public office.
