Looking for chemistry supply stores in DFW texas metroplex or south oklahama

Been googling but can't find anything... even if there are science shops in north texas, you need a permit to buy them them. So also curious for a chemistry shop in south Oklahoma. Something like BME lab and science

Even any part of oklahoma is OK, willing to go a long distance for this.

Yes, it is a fact that any part of Oklahoma is OK. <sub>sorry, couldn't resist</sub>

In all seriousness though, I don't think that there is a brick and mortar science store that would sell anything relatively advanced anywhere in Texas or Oklahoma. I've tried to look too, and there are a couple science oriented toy stores, but the most chemistry-like thing you might get from one of those would be a "no chemicals" chemistry set. In fact, the only real ones I can think of off the top of my head anywhere in the country are Elemental/BME, HMS Beagle, and American Science and Surplus.

Arkansas is an option too, though a bit far of a drive.

But why? Why do you need to go hundreds of miles to a brick-and-mortar store when you can get everything you need online or from other normal stores?

In the Dallas area -

HobbyTown (Dallas and Plano) has VERY limited glassware; last time I was in the Dallas location they had thistle tubes, glass stirring rods, and test tubes - all WAY overpriced.

Heath Scientific in Cedar Hill has a small selection of indicators, graduated cylinders, beakers...

Pillar Scientific in Oklahoma City, OK has a variety of glassware.
