Hunting Stores in Alaska

207 independent hunting, gun, and outdoor stores across Alaska — no big-box chains, just the local counters worth the drive. Alaska is fly-out country — moose, caribou, brown bear, and Sitka blacktail — where gear failure is a safety issue, and local shops double as the last supply stop before the bush.

Alaska Hunting Stores — Frequently Asked

How many hunting and gun stores are in Alaska?

Our directory lists 207 independent hunting, gun, and outdoor stores in Alaska, based on May 2026 federal firearms licensing records. We only count storefront retailers — national big-box chains and home-based license holders are excluded.

Which Alaska cities have the most hunting stores?

Anchorage leads with 46 independent stores, followed by Wasilla (24) and Fairbanks (17).

Why does this directory exclude Bass Pro, Cabela’s, and Academy?

You already know where the big-box stores are. This directory exists to surface the independent local shops — the counters where you get straight answers, gunsmithing, and gear picked for the country you actually hunt.

Can I buy used hunting gear online instead?

Yes — Second Nature is a marketplace for used hunting gear from verified sellers, with buyer protection and shipping included. It’s a good way to stretch your budget on premium brands before you drive to a shop, and if you’re in Alaska you can also sell gear you’ve outgrown.
