Just wondering if anyone knew of any stores in Longview/Kilgore area that stocks percussion caps. I lost mine in a move and now I'm SOL.

I am unfamiliar with Longview and Kilgore specifically, but I routinely find CCI #11 percussion caps throughout the DFW Metroplex; in fact, I stocked up last year and bought 2000 CCI #10s and 2000 CCI #11s and 1000 Remington #10s and 1000 RWS #1075s, all from local stores. {ETA: and I did not even empty the shelves, I left plenty for others!}

Theres a couple gun shops around Longview, have you tried them? There is one (superior outfitters, one also in tyler and bigger) on 4'th street next to sams and then another (top shot) out on the loop/I20 (north side of intrastate) (south-east-side end of loop). Not sure if they got any, but they might, its worth a call. @backbencher might know. Another place, but heard some ppl complain about them (winchesters in springhill off 300) but i dont know for sure.

I'm not the East Texas boy, that's jeffb1911, I'd go to the Longview show & IM beforehand, like he said.

I used to buy my caps there (DFW area) but haven't had much luck getting out there in a while.

Jack of Pawns is the only one I know that tries to carry them and they're out. I called superior and Sportsmans but they didn't have any.

I appreciate it but I've managed to bum a few off of a coworker. He thought he was out but managed to find a few tins hidden away.

I've ordered a few overpriced tins off of gunbroker
