Kones Korner is an area landmark standing alone atop a gentle slope along US Highway 81 south of Watertown, SD. Starting back in the late 1920’s as a rural gas station and later becoming a 1960’s version of a convenience store. In 1964, Curt and Vic Carter purchased the station. This business represented more than just a way to make a living, it was a part of their family heritage. Kones Korner

In 1966, after purchasing several guns at an auction sale, Curt displayed them in an old candy display case. The guns sold, starting a legacy that lives on today. Curt continued to add more and more guns and gun supplies. Today Kones Korner serves customers from both the local area as well as across the United States. The business has even sold to persons as far away as England. Now the business has been passed down to yet another generation. Curt’s son Vic Carter has now taken over the day to day business of Kones Korner. We now carry major Brand Archery Products!
