NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
Note 1: Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements are unaudited and reflect all
adjustments which are normal and recurring in nature, and which,
in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation
of operations and cash flows. Reclassifications have been made to
prior year financial information wherever necessary to conform to
the current year presentation. Results of operations for the
interim periods are not necessarily indicative of full-year
results.
Note 2: Per Share Data
The computation of earnings per share for the thirty-nine and
thirteen week periods of 1995 is based on the weighted average
number of shares outstanding during the periods. The exercise of
outstanding options and warrants is not considered in the
computation because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive
for all periods presented for 1995.
The computation of earnings per share for the thirty-nine and
thirteen week periods of 1994 is based on the weighted average
number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents
outstanding during the period. The dilutive effect of the
potential exercise of outstanding options and warrants to purchase
shares of common stock is calculated using the treasury stock
method.
Note 3: Credit Facility
Effective February 16, 1995, the Company entered into a new credit
facility providing a revolving line of credit up to $15,500,000,
subject to an adequate borrowing base, expiring March 1997. The
revolving credit facility provides an available base amount of
$5,000,000 with an additional seasonal amount of $10,500,000
available from May 1 through November 30 of each year. The
revolving line of credit is secured by substantially all of the
assets of the Company.
To facilitate a newly created customer installment pay plan, the
Company's credit facility was amended in October 1995 to include
in its borrowing base accounts receivable financed under the
Company's EZ Pay installment plan. In addition, the amended credit
facility calls for payments of principal and interest as may be
necessary to reduce and maintain the sum of the outstanding balance
and any outstanding letter of credit at not more than $2 million
plus 80% of the daily average account receivable EZ Pay balance for
a 30 day paydown period of not less than 30 consecutive days from
December 1 through March 31 each year of the plan.
In November 1995, the Company negotiated certain amendments to its
loan covenants due to less than expected year-to-date Company
performance.

Note 4: Current Maturities of Long-Term Debt
The Company is pursuing financing alternatives to refinance the
existing subordinated debt of approximately $3.2 million due
February 1996.
Note 5: Stockholders' Equity
On April 26, 1995, the Company's stockholders authorized the Board
of Directors to determine at any time prior to December 29, 1995
that the number of outstanding shares of common stock of the
Company will be changed into one new share of common stock in a
ratio of not less than 5 to 1 nor more than 20 to 1, or if such
reverse stock split is not advisable, no further action will be
taken in such regard. As of September 29, 1995, the Board of
Directors of the Company has not taken any action on this proposed
reverse stock split.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company meets its operating cash requirements through funds generated
from operations, borrowings under its revolving line of credit and
subordinated debt with shareholders. Because of increasing sales and
correspondingly higher levels of inventory, the Company's needs for
external sources to fund working capital have increased. Effective
February 16, 1995, the Company entered into a new credit facility providing
a revolving line of credit up to $15,500,000, subject to an adequate
borrowing base, expiring March 1997. The revolving credit facility provides
an available base amount of $5,000,000 with an additional seasonal amount of
$10,500,000 available from May 1 through November 30 of each year. The
revolving line of credit is secured by substantially all of the assets of
the Company. As of September 29, 1995, the Company borrowed $10,770,000
against the revolving line of credit.
In October 1995, to facilitate a newly created customer installment pay
plan, the Company's credit facility was amended to include in its borrowing
base accounts receivable financed under the Company's EZ Pay installment
plan. In November 1995, the Company negotiated certain amendments to its
loan covenants due to less than expected year-to-date Company performance.
The cash flow used in operating activities for the thirteen week period
ended September 29, 1995 was $947,000 compared to the cash flow provided by
operating activities of $1,267,000 for the same period last year. This
increase in cash flow used in operating activities was primarily a result of
an increase in inventory and promotional material offset partially with an
increase in accounts payable and lower earnings in 1995 as compared to same
period last year. The cash flow used in operating activities for the thirty-
nine week period ended September 29, 1995 was $8,846,000 compared to
$5,439,000 for the same period last year. This increase in cash flow used
in operating activities was largely due to the net loss in 1995 as compared
to the net earnings in 1994.
The Company had a working capital deficit of $2,360,000 as of September 29,
1995 as compared to working capital of $3,952,000 as of December 30, 1994.
The decrease in working capital was primarily as a result of an increase in
the current maturities of subordinated long-term debt to related and other
parties. The inventory level as of September 29, 1995 increased $10,108,000
from the fiscal year ended December 30, 1994. This increase was primarily
due to the seasonality of the Company's business with greater sales
generated during the second half of the year. In addition, the higher level
of inventory was as a result of lower than expected catalog sales in the
first three quarters of 1995. The notes payable-bank as of September 29,
1995 increased $10,770,000 from the fiscal year ended December 30, 1994.
This increase was primarily due to the higher level of inventory and lower
earnings in 1995 as compared to 1994.
The Company is actively pursuing financing alternatives to refinance the
existing subordinated debt of approximately $3.2 million due February 1996.
The Company believes it will have sufficient funds available to meet current
and future commitments.

Results of Operations
Comparison of the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended
- -------------------------------------------------------------
September 29, 1995, to the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
ended September 30, 1994
- ------------------------
The Company's sales for the thirteen week period ended September 29, 1995,
decreased $810,000 or 3% from the same period last year. The Company's
sales for the thirty-nine week period ended September 29, 1995, increased
$5,155,000 or 8% from the same period last year. The decrease in sales for
the thirteen week period ended September 29, 1995 is attributable to lower
than anticipated customer response partially caused by several catalog
mailings being delivered late to the customers' homes. Sales for the
thirteen week period ended September 29, 1995, were down from the same
period last year despite an increase in mailings primarily from new
specialty catalog editions. The increase in sales for the thirty-nine week
period ended September 29, 1995, is attributable to a planned increase in
catalog mailings, with a significant portion offset by lower than
anticipated customer demand. The sales results for the thirteen and thirty-
nine week periods reflect a softness in consumer demand within the mail order
industry and retailing in general.
Gross profit for the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended
September 29, 1995, was 33.6% and 34.2% of sales, respectively, compared to
34.2% and 31.9% of sales, respectively, for the same periods last year.
When comparing to the same period last year, the decrease in the gross
profit as a percent of sales, for the thirteen week period, was primarily
due to lower retail product margins in the ammunition category. The
increase in the gross profit as a percent of sales, for the thirty-nine week
period, was primarily due to reduced shipping costs of outgoing parcels
to customers, an increase in the shipping and handling charges to the
customer and improved retail product margins primarily in the footwear
category.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the thirteen week period
ended September 29, 1995, were $9,136,000 or 37.0% of sales compared to
$7,822,000 or 30.7% of sales for the same period last year. Selling,
general and administrative expenses for the thirty-nine week period ended
September 29, 1995, were $24,377,000 or 36.9% of sales compared to
$17,881,000 or 29.4% of sales for the same period last year. The increase
in the dollar spending level, for the thirteen week and thirty-nine week
periods ended September 29, 1995, was due to higher catalog costs with the
planned increase in catalog circulation. The increase as a percent of sales
was primarily due to lower customer response on the catalogs partially
caused by several catalog mailings being delivered late to the customers'
homes.
Interest expense for the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended
September 29, 1995, was $332,000 and $720,000, respectively as compared to
$223,000 and $421,000 for the same periods last year. The increase was
primarily due to interest on the revolving line of credit to finance the
increased inventory level and the net losses from operations.
Income tax benefit for the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended
September 29, 1995, was $406,000 and $756,000, respectively. The income tax
benefit for the periods ended September 29, 1995 represents recoverable
income taxes from the prior year and expected tax benefits to be realized
in the fourth quarter of 1995. In 1994, the Company utilized net operating
loss carryforwards to offset any income tax charges.

- ------------------------
As a result of the above, the net losses for the thirteen and thirty-nine
week periods ended September 29, 1995, were ($771,000) and ($1,727,000),
respectively, as compared to net earnings of $614,000 and $1,024,000,
respectively, for the same periods last year.
