Highland Arms

Highland Arms opened at 125 S. Main Street in Elkader after owner Garett Hamilton made a career shift from forestry into firearms. What started as a new venture has become a fixture in the local hunting and shooting community. Hamilton's commitment goes beyond retail—the shop actively sponsors school events, fundraisers, and church groups, creating a business that's genuinely woven into Elkader.
