I've never heard of them.

They were a big chain 30-35 years ago. There was one on old Hwy 146 in Baytown when I was growing up. They used to have trash cans full of mil surp rifles.

I am not sure how national they were. When our sons were young we used to visit the Kerrville area during our summer camping trips and I remembered the Gibson's from back then. When Mrs. Anygun and I visited Kerrville after we returned to Texas from our stint in Kalifornia I was very pleased to see the old Gibson's still there. The old stores are better than Wally World.

I remember when Marshall Field in downtown Chicago sold top-dollar hunting rifles and shotguns. Just a bit of trivia.
