There is also one on the NE corner of 35th Ave and Osborn (1/2 way between Indian school and Thomas). 33.29.282/112.8.035 http://www.us-militarysurplus.com I have been to the 43rd/Northern as well 33.33.203/112.9.036 http://www.alliedsurplus.com/ They (35/osborn) do have a good selection of rain ponchos I purchased two there. I did not see anywhere near the selection on the 43rd ave location in terms of clothing. They also have ammo cans, etc. Apparently there is a military outlet at the National guard reservation at 52nd Street and McDowell http://www.ngaaz.org/store.html 5640 E.
