/k/ share your stories, thins you have heard or seen, cringe worthy, in the Gunshine state. I'll go first.

Work at LGS, two fudds come in asking where the " huntin rahfles " are, I tell him in the next room. One comes back a few minutes later, asks why we have " all dat commie sheit " in the next room. Tell him we're primarily a MilSurp shop. Fudd says he " didn't ask no nothin about critters ". Tell him to get out,

Not even a joke. As a kid we were hanging out by the cat tails fucking off with an over/under .22/.410. We were shooting June bugs, cicadas, and dragon flies with the .410 as they flew around.

On more than one occasion a fucking HIND-D sounding cockroach would fly by and anything smaller than 0 buck (if you could hit it with a pellet) would just knock it out of the air. #7 shot might as well have been a gentle smack with the back of your hand.

Usually they'd land on the water upside down and get snatched by a fish.

We got a new place here in Beaverton Oregon that replaces this shithole "gun/security" shop (they lost their FFL). In their place is this really nice, clean, and we'll thought out shop (awkwardly named "Arm Yourself"). Great staff and everything. Ok not downside, while their guns are fairly priced their accessories are like 200% markup. A TLR-1HL is like $200...

You mostly can only "innawoods" shoot like k talks about on Bureau of Land Management (BLM) land.

Live in Palm Beach County, some of the better ones I've heard include:

> .22 mag is better than .380 for self-defense

> a .380 may not stop a determined attacker but a 9mm will "spin him around"

> getting a silencer will subject you to random searches by the ATF

> anytime someone mentions "knockdown power" especially when pertaining to pistol calibers

Not Florida, but Vegas.

>Hop in and ask about FFLing for a VEPR 12

World class moron. Never even knows what he has sitting right next to him. Though I check his small inventory from time to time though. Has some decent guns reasonably priced, some 100% rusted wall hangars, and a fucking nugget for $650.

There's a LGS here that always had the same dozen milsurp/sported rifles, and like 3-4 ARs, and almost identical stock of pistols. They might sell the odd Cobra or Sccy to a basketball american a few times a month though.

First time I went shooting was in some wooded area around homestead.

Filled with appliances that had been shot up and make shift platforms for placing targets on. It was fun.

I'd just go to a gun range or a park myself.
>>
>>34526404
I went to a gun shop in Miami (I think it was Stone Hart's) to buy some targets. I said "thank you" at the end of checkout and the cashier piped up:
>You aren't from here are you?
>No, how'd you know?

Gave me a good kek. I can see what he means though. South Florida is full of shitty people

I'm not even sure. I had to look at pictures. I don't think so. We didn't pay anything. One of my college buddies just scooped us up with guns, we bought ammo and we went to homestead and went shooting in a wooded area around some ponds.

Sorry. Henry's looks cool though. I'm lucky enough to actually live within 25 mins of 3 good ranges in palm beach and broward.

I actually got to work out with him.

It's a /k/omrade's paradise. There's a LAHTI AT rifle on the floor with its ammo less than a foot away. Mosins galore, Steyr M95 Stützens, 8mm Lebel in a plastic tub, They even had an Argentine Mauser (early serial, was in shit condition), "Nazi" surplus 8x56R in enblocs. I could go on.

There's the list in the pic plus Delray and the Sheriff's Office range way out west that's only open a few days a month to the public. I personally go to Shoot Straight which is kind of meh, but it's close to me and good enough for a pistol range. Although when I can I strongly prefer to go to the outdoor ranges in Okeechobee.
>>
>>34532207
Palm beach shooting center is fine. I never been to shoot straight cause I'm at the bottom of the county. Only thing with palm beach shooting-- very hot. I was drenched in sweat. hangers for targets looked flimsy but did their job. People there were very nice.

Also, I may as well plug tallahassee indoor shooting for anyone in the area. Loved that place when I was living in Tally.

the security store on tv highway is gone? huh, the more you know. That places had sketch written all over it.

I remember walking in there, and it was a poorly lit hole in the wall with a concrete floor, and their "security items" were in big bins sitting on the floor scattered around the place. Never went back. Pretty rare that I feel like I'm gonna get robbed by the staff haha. This was a few years ago though.

Do that have a decent selection? or is it all glocks and AR's?

Still a little far south for me. I avoid Orlando like the plague. Keep in mind given the fact that the anti-gunners use the word "Orlando" like "9/11" you're likely to get stalked or outright infiltrated by some Antifa creeps. Maybe one of these days we'll set up something for the Alachua/Marion area.

some ranges will deny NFA items unless they see the stamp. It's shit, and you're obviously not required to show it, but the range is probably private property

>>34532424
Yup, you don't have to show anybody but the ATF your papers. But the owner can also kick you off of their privately owned range, so most people oblige when requested. The fact that the RSO asked doesn't make the story any less true, retard.

Very true. However the last thing any gun store wants is to explain to the ATF why they didn't immediately call them when an unregistered SBR walked through the door. We don't want to be seen as some sort of "safe haven" for assholes who break the law.

Any good places to grab milsurp in the Orlando area? Only place I know of is Buffalo Bill's on Mills and they seem to be a bit back and forth on pricing. One time I went there they had a Type 99 with tons of stock damage for $700 or so, next time they had an M48 Yugo for $200, which I still regret not buying. Their selection is a bit small as well.

Setting aside what a cuck that guy is for letting his wife force him to do anything, he wasn't wrong.
The 1911 is an antiquated design that requires constant fiddly TLC from a knowledgeable enthusiast to keep running, so if he made $300 profit off of a gun he had no interest in then everybody came out of that deal a winner.

& yet every range I've been to in Collier, Lee and Charlotte counties, both indoor and outdoor, privately owned and government operated, require you bring your NFA paperwork with you if you intend to use NFA items at their range.

I know you can tell them to eat your ass and wish they go out of business. But really the amount of people with NFA items compared to those without, is small.

They'll do juuuuust fine even with your ill will.

Quoth the ATF:
>A pistol or revolver having a barrel with a smooth bore designed or redesigned to fire a fixed shotgun shell;
A handgun with no rifling in the barrel is on shaky ground to begin with, depending on the exact definition of "redesign", but if he started firing fixed shotgun shells like ratshot through it there's no way it wouldn't count as an AOW.

>>34542627

>>34542883
The Model 60 isn't a handgun, though.

There was at least a cool azn guy who was helpful and gun to talk to, but he was the exception.
If you go to Hodgkins, right behind the movie theater by the quarry there is a new place that just opened up not too long ago named point blank. Their selection is kind of bland, but the people there are super nice and helpful and the range is nice too.

Shoot Straight is one of the nicer options if you want something new. The one in Tampa has a better selection than the one in Clearwater but they're both nice (although usually understaffed).

There are a few hole-in-the-wall places in Largo; Iron Site is a cool little place that is half storefront and half gunsmith. Full of milsurp, mostly from the owner's excess. The owner is a good smith but his helper is a fuckhead muhreen armorer. It's also moist in there and a lot of the firearms are rusty or lathered in grease.

Kubes is right next door. Nice people but small selection, they used to handle a lot of milsurp.

Post 2 for 727/813 meet members

Email [email protected] to get added to the tampabayfag group. I'll start a little email list later today if enough people join. Right now we have a whopping 3 tbfags.
NOTE: TAMPABAYFAGS is not the name. I'll try to think of something slightly less gay.

Also, I'm not interested in being in charge of organizing the meet, just getting a group together to make this a possibility. If anyone wants to take lead, feel free. I don't even have any decent guns. I just want to go shoot in the woods with some guys, drink beer and bullshit.
>>
>>34544355
I think the guy from Mark kubes started the thread. They have fudd rifles in the next room and they're a milsurp place.
Anyways, castle keep has old guns, which is somewhat hard to find here. Most places I've been are only new/newer used guns.
>>
>>34544476
Ohh, and noguns are welcome too. As long as you're not a felon you can shoot my guns at any meet. 2 ARs, 1 AK, some handguns and a 22 Marlin. Nothing exciting, but enough to share.
>>
>>34544273
birdy a cute
>>34543936
the secret of WAC is the competitions. the availability of matches is insane, but it's basically only handgun stuff.

everyone makes fun of the public range there and i agree the ROs are uptight but the people shooting are equally stupid. it's not that bad. i much prefer the noise level and air quality outdoors.
>>34544498
yeah, i know them well. didn't realize until i started scrolling down

castle keep probably has the best variety of milsurp and old world guns in the area. if you want to handle a steyr straight pull or something it's not bad for that.

People that don't want their dogs shot.
>>
>>34544693
the dumb part is that the ATF doesn't care, it's just a CYA measure on behalf of the range owner.

there should be no expectation of shot dogs

>>34538707
Don't you need a license to sell ammo?
>>
>>34532424
Emphatically not true. In some states, Michigan being one off the top of my head, you are required to keep a physical copy of your stamp and forms with NFA items when you travel.
>>
>>34540782
>>34544650
But why? I'm not gonna fucking shoot the guy next to me because I can't line up my shot perfectly, it just won't hit the center of the target
>>
>>34544647
THIS THREAD IS NOT ENDORSED BY ANY GUNSHOP IN THE TAMPA BAY AREA.
This is unironically Tony. Neither me or Brian made this cringeworthy thread.

As far as shooting goes, we are lazy and forgetful, I think Brian sent you his phone number so give him a call whenever you want to go.
P.S. I read that book you recommended to me as well. I enjoyed it.
>>
>>34544934
it damages the range more if you don't hit the backstop directly. you are not entitled to shooting their ceiling or walls
>>
>>34544982
If you need sights to be able to determine whether your gun is pointed at the ceiling or at the backstop, you probably shouldn't be trusted with firearms.
>>
>>34544934
Cause it's their place of business and they can run how they want I suppose, it's really a take it or leave it kinda thing.
>>
>>34544976
good to hear. his phone be dead or off. i'll write and catch up
>>34545005
this isn't for the intelligent people, this is for the idiots. put yourself in the shoes of someone who owns a range. you owe your customers nothing and you should make every reasonable effort to keep your range operational. i'm not condoning these rules, just explaining why I understand they would be used.

remember, it's private property. it is your privilege as a customer to use that range, so you use it at the discretion of the owner

Tenoroc is pretty nice. Outdoors, the ROs are fairly chill. Have 100 yard.
Shooters World in Temple Terrace has a decent range, the people that work the back counter are dildos, but their ROs and most of the sales staff seems pretty cool.
>>
>>34543936
Only problem with Shoot Straight are the people who shoot there. The ROs are cool AF, but I've had a few heart attacks there. Don't envy those guys at all.
>>
>>34545118
I have a $300 scope now I just wanted to shoot the day I got my gun and drove all the way out there just to be disappointed

Rubbed me in the wrong direction and I've hated them ever since
>>
>>34527989
Unless you go to the range I think it needs to be some forms of hunting season for you to have gun in the national forest
>>
>>34545144
They're okay, but the shoot straight in Clearwater sucks. No actual rifle range, and the place is falling completely apart. The one in Tampa is okay.

You wanna go shooting at WAC some time?
>>
>>34545156
$300 scope is a poorfag scope
>>
>>34545126
>Tenoroc

It's a pretty good range, save for the rapid fire restriction on the pistol range.

>>34545144
>Shoot Straight

just ok. steel case and rapid fire is cool, but I got bitched at last time for doing dot torture at 4 yards. apparently they now have a rule that all targets have to be 5 yds out. not a big deal, but FYI.
>>
>>34545276
not the anon you are replying to but I was in there last year when the air handler went down (probably one of many times) and they didn't ceasefire for like half an hour lol. was just fingerfucking things in the saleroom and it was permeated by a thick smell (and a faintly visible cloud) of smokeless powder like i've never experienced before

Yeah if you're actually good at articulating and properly introduce people to your hobbies it can get busy quick.
>>
>>34545490
The problem in FL is finding good land to shoot on.
>>
>>34545315
The one in clearwater always has a full half of the range down, no reloads, the target movers rarely work, they're slow, the place is just in dark condition.

I'm going to be at WAC from now on, maybe the SS in Tampa occasionally.
>>
>>34542522
honestly fuck every gun store in the 727's prices and especially fuck reload they are a bunch of assholes
>>
>>34544558
I have a weird thing for old guns that are odd. Last time I went there they had this old shitty oneshot shotgun that I loved. Do you know of any other stores that carry stuff like that? Why do they seem to have more than others?

TAMPABAYFAGS is now 5 members strong. WE'RE HERE, WE'RE QUEER FOR GUNS, GET USED TO IT.
Give me a little bit to take a shit and lookup a good way to plan this stuff and I'll email everyone so far.

Yea, agreed. Some real freaks on here. You know that Jewish Spaniard that dresses in cosplay and has tea with AKs on here?

Friend of mine tried to get a job at shoot straight, they accepted him and shit was going good the fucks told him to go to the Castleberry shop for training. He got there and the manager said he was supposed to go the big shop for training, even though he had proof they told him to go Castleberry (he had the texts or emails, can't remember which they used since this happened about a year ago) the manager fired him on the spot. Everything worked out though and now he works at the armories. I've always heard that shoot straight's management is pretty shit.

I've never had bad customer service from them, and a lot of their employees are pretty cool. One of the guys at the Castleberry location loves defense ammo and bladed weapons we can usually talkabout that shit for along time, we met because he noticed my pocket knife was a karambit. I've gotten a lot of guns there, my favorites being a ksg, sub 2000 9mm, and a cmr 30

You know this isn't a straw purchase right? It doesn't matter who pays for it as long as the owner of the gun fills out the 4473.

But then again it probably was a straw purchase cause niggas gon nig
