    I have some free time coming up, and as a bonus I have $2000 from a settlement from my old employer. (They got sued for violating OT regulations back in California). Gulf Coast Guns in Milton and Tactical Precision are the only ones that carry a lot. Just looking for a place with large selection.

    Haven't been in there in a while, but Oak Ridge Gun range in Gulf Breeze usually kept a good inventory...and you can shoot if you want. If you are going to Milton, might as well swing thru Grey Man Armory as well. Smaller shop, but keeps a good inventory and Dan is a good guy.

    Unless you just feel the need to put your "dick skinners" on these weapons , there are several online dealers with larger selections than you will find in any one store. Plus , no driving / traffic except for one trip to an FFL holder you like
    But , "to each his own"

    I’ve never been to their store but I’ve always enjoyed browsing the Outpost’s tables at the gunshow. They are in Marianna.
    There’s also Uber’s in Pensacola and Grey Man Armory in Milton.

    In my honest opinion Gulf Coast gun is good for ammo good selection but complete dipshits and assholes working there. I live within a 1 min walk and purchased over 15 guns last year never an option to go there and support that business. I second greyman quality firearms and best place for building a rifle. mikes in Pensacola is my go to for gun purchases knowledge is there fair prices will match prices and definitely good selection as well

    Thanks for the input guys,
    Yes she is coming back to Florida, just wants to visit older sisters in California. Sorry to hear about jerks at Gulf Coast, Them and Element Range have the best prices for range ammo.

    Cash America Pawn shop has a website that lists all its guns/rifles and location. Peruse away and call them for availability, show up and haggle away..

    I second Grey Man Armory. Just remember they are closed Sunday and Monday. My wife’s uncle lived in Dothan and he always talked about a place that I think is in Marianna. It may be one of the places listed above.

    Marianna is good as well. I travel the whole gulf from Mississippi to Panama City up into Montgomery and yeah Marianna’s the Outpost definitely good.

    Hmm, my experience has been the exact opposite. Some associates are better than others, but they don't hover and bug you like at some places.

    I can't agree with this at all. Gulf Coast guns has always treated me well and answered questions when asked. I've had NO issues at all.
