Our business began in 1985 with a Firearms and Militaria store in Vermont. We moved to New Hampshire in 2000 and opened Abe's Awesome Armaments selling mostly knives, swords, and a few firearms. As our business grew, we soon outgrew our existing showroom.
In the Spring of 2005 we built a 40x30 log cabin with a 1,200 square foot showroom.
Today we are proud to carry over 1,000 knives, 100 swords and 100 firearms in stock with an extensive array of accessories and ammunition.
We also stock Airsoft guns and have a nice selection of fine cigars on hand.
So, stop in or call anytime. Our inventory is always changing and we consider all trades.
And remember, if you're looking for something unique and unusual and we don't have it, we can always find it for you!

NEW HAMPTON, NH— Abram "Abe" Foote grew up in Barre, Vt., target-shooting with his father and visiting gun shops and shows, looking for bargains. Today, Foote owns and operates "Abe's Awesome Armaments," a shop at 583 Route 104 in New Hampton that specializes in buying, selling, trading and appraising knives, swords and firearms of all types.
"Our motto is the unique to the unusual," said Foote, pointing to the top shelf of a glass display cabinet that holds a dozen Randall knives. Foote said he bought the mint condition knives from a collector, explaining that if you placed an order with the Orlando, Fla. manufacturer today, the company is so backlogged you wouldn't get your knife until 2011.
