Here is basically what you have in Tampa...(I have lived there for over 30 yrs)
Shoot Straight Tampa
University Gun & Pawn
Shooting Sports of Tampa
Central Police Firearms & Safety (I think that's right)
...anyway, those are your biggest and most popular with the widest selection.
"IMO"
Largest Selection - Shoot Straight
Most product - Shoot Straight
Largest Facility - Shoot Straight
w/ Range - Shoot Straight
Shooting Sports Tampa
Most Toxic - Shooting Sports Tampa
Best Prices - University Gun
Really, I have worked at about all of these places and dealing with this industry for over 15 years...really The best overall place is Shoot Straight, but there prices are not the cheapest.
They will work with you and they have a incredible selection, but Charlie at University will work the best with you on price, there selecton is pretty good.
Both do Class III, Charlie has more exotic, but for just best price if its in inventory I would pick University...and even if you have to order it, there is really no difference.

When I was at University a few days ago, they did have P30s..one in 9, one in 40. Sticker was $950 I think, and the guy I know offered me $900...didn't try to haggle further. If you go in, and you talk to the owner (Charlie), or the bald guy (can't remember his name at the moment), feel free to tell them that the "longhorn" guy sent you.

That's about the size of it, though I've had good luck dealing with Florida Survivalist in the past.Originally Posted by Velcro

For the past few days I've been talking to a retired SEAL about one gun shop owner in the area being a phony SEAL. I need to get more info from this particular phony SEAL before putting the name out there, but there is no record of this man ever being involved with the SEAL's. If we have total confirmation, his name is going all over here

TampaM4....real curious to here who that guy is...and I know I can get it verified...
djegators, did you wind up getting anything or will they remember the "longhorn guy" as a bad thing!!! LOL!!!
@ University, you have Charlie and "Bob"...both good guy's although University in not perfect. I can tell you that this is a sellers market on guns. You know SS "knows" that there prices are astronomical, but you know...they get it, how, I don't know, but they do...but like anywhere, they do work with customers that they know.
I know that the main owner of all of the Shoot Straights has his prices high, but at the show, will drop them down to where it looks like you are getting a hell of a deal...AGAIN, all these dealers have BIG TICKETS on gun's cause they can right now...
HELL...Ammo was worse!
Hope you found what you wanted and my "opinion" helped.

Kamal gets the sales he does with the prices he charges based on marketing and consumer ignorance. He has a clean store with decent looking employees that wear a uniform of sorts that makes him look like the Macy's of gun shops. Then he advertises on the local TV stations and folks see his huge selection and people go "ohhh". It's all about the marketing

Yep, they will give you deals at the shows, and then can beat pretty much deal you find. But then again, they have like 1/4th of the tables.

Generally speaking, not necessarily in particular to any of the mentioned dealers, a lot of people complain about prices, but I have found they never even asked for a better price, had to cash in pocket to buy, or did enough research to know what a fair price is.
