Known as military surplus stores or army navy stores, surplus stores in the U.S. typically carry military or military-spec equipment. After the World Wars and [[Vietnam War]], large amounts of military surplus was left over from the large amounts of equipment made for drafted troops, making their stock and sale common. However, with the advent of the military being volunteer and the fighting force being smaller, most modern military stores have had to switch to selling "military-spec" items, which are civilian remakes of military items.<ref>{{Cite web |last=McKay |first=Brett and Kate |date=2016-10-11 |title=The Rise and Fall of the Army Surplus Store |url=https://www.artofmanliness.com/articles/rise-fall-army-surplus-store/ |access-date=2020-07-12 |website=The Art of Manliness |language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Best Military Surplus Online Stores |url=https://vocal.media/serve/best-military-surplus-online-stores |access-date=2020-07-12 |website=Serve}}</ref>
