California Hunting Stores — Frequently Asked

How many hunting and gun stores are in California?

Our directory lists 707 independent hunting, gun, and outdoor stores in California, 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 California cities have the most hunting stores?

Bakersfield leads with 24 independent stores, followed by Corona (11) and Riverside (11).

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 California you can also sell gear you’ve outgrown.
