Just by chance hubby (Bulldog Man) and I came across
this store when driving through the town of Noble, Oklahoma this weekend while
visiting yard and estate sales. After going home to return our
found items from the sales, and walking the four legged critters, we drove back
to Noble to visit this store that caught our interest.
The store, “The Faithful
Prepper”, Owned and operated by Proprietor Stephen Guillory and
General Manager Kacy Oxford. This store, a Christian based store was Opened,
July 4, 2012.

Because of where we live, you don’t see stores like
this or military surplus in this location.
One must commute into or near Oklahoma City to be able to see or
purchase homestead preparation materials.
“The Faithful Prepper” carries a large range
of items varying from body armor (Amendment II dealer), the display armor
(Centurion Tactical Vest and Rynohide armor panels), military surplus, knives,
first aid supplies, parachute cord, canteens, sleeping bags, mats, tools,
pouches, long term food storage, water
filters, books, manuals, natural soaps, washboards and various other items of
interest.
Bulldog Man and I had the opportunity to spend time
talking with Stephen Guillory and took our time checking out the entire store. We felt like two kids in a candy store. You couldn’t ask for better customer service
and the prices on items were very reasonable.
We enjoyed Stephen’s display of body armor panels,
and we’re able to observe the damage rendered on the armor panels, little to
none with various bullet types 226, 9mm and 45 calibers.
A few pictures of some of the items on display, many more items available in the store.

For those who are just starting out with a
homestead, or have had a homestead for a while and you live in or near
Oklahoma, please don’t hesitate to stop in and visit “The Faithful Prepper” located 307 North Main Street, Suite A, Noble, Oklahoma 73068. I
know Bulldog Man and I will be returning to shop at “The

While visiting “The Faithful
Prepper”, I purchased an awesome

I need to look into body armor. That is an area I have been lax in.
