    Less than a mile from Ubers on the other side of Fairfield if I am correct. Was a motorcycle shop years ago. I think it was called Skinners

    What sort of shop is this? I googled the name and found a pic from their facebook that is captioned "we are getting a bunch of parts in..." and shows guns and accessories that seem to be spread out over a messy bed.

    Looks to be home based... judging by the upkeep of everything I will never go in there or consider them a reputable FFL...

    Pensacola, west side.
    I was in there a few months back. Thought I had posted about it somewhere on here, but could not find it. Gun shop is not inside the residence, but in a separate building out back. Entry is off the side street, 60th ave.

    https://www.google.com/maps/place/D...7b848ff457119b7!8m2!3d30.4320248!4d-87.295058

    They sold me a dust cover pin that I needed, and was the only place I found that had it locally. Reasonable price then too on that part. They are going to sell suppressors, but I cannot remember the brands they have available. They are also the only local distributor for some accessory line, but I was not interested so did not retain the info. They seemed like reasonable guys, and were willing to listen to suggestions.

    EDIT: The web site is under development and the younger guy I talked to is doing it, so likely the parts on bed were his posting.

    Some of those home grown folks are the most honest and willing to help you'll find. That's why we have retail shops though. Every body likes something a little different

    I had a gunbroker item shipped there several months ago, no problems, nice owner. I plan on doing more business there in the future.

    Ah, I remember Skinner's well :)
    Back in the day I'd get crashed bikes cheap, then go to Skinner's
    to get the parts I needed to get it going again!
    Was so sad when they closed! Then Pensacola Motorcycle Salvage
    bought their stock out...and they closed within 3 years...then
    Escambia Motorcycle Salvage in Brewton bought all the PMS stuff,
    where I buy all my funky parts for my 1986 Honda Shadow now ;)

    Dunno if I'd put another gun shop in that neighborhood...seems
    like a waste, especially with Uber's right down the street.
    Uber's has capabilities that most gun shops DREAM they could do.
    You need a gun worked on, Uber's is pretty dang good!!
    Not to mention their Locksmith skills!

    The only bad thing about being there is it's a Sketchy neighborhood...
    Hopefully have serious alarms and burglar bars. For that matter,
    if they're using the old Skinner's Barn, they better have reinforced
    the woodframe build substantially...cause any fool with a K12 saw
    or chainsaw could rip into that place like a hot knife thru butter.

    Stopped in a month or two ago. The place was really coming together. The owner and the gunsmith were really nice folks who didn't mind shooting the breeze even when I said I was just browsing. Will definitely use them and Ubers too.

    It's known as capitalism gentlemen.
    Only me and jj are old enough to remember,but if you build two or three gas stations on the corners of an intersection,what do you have ?? . . . . . GAS WARS!!
    Hopefully this will bring down the somewhat higher prices at Uber's and make them feel like they have some competition for the buisness.
    Me . . . I wish them the best. --- SAWMAN
