    coastal firearm shop

    Has anyone ever dealt with them? They look legit but don't take credit cards, just paypal and the like and they have a $180 minimum which seems strange. They have what I need but then that may be because they aren't legit.

    Seems kind hokie they are supposed to be in Florida but ship from Missouri. Smells like a rat to me. Especially since they don't give a Fla address on the website just a dade county phone number.

    Call the local police department and see what the desk Sergeant says. He'd probably render an opinion.

    Yeah I'm really thinking hokie for sure. They have every kind of primer in stock and I checked a dozen or more powders, all in stock no matter what size container you want.

    They don't have an address on the website so I would have no idea what local would be. I like that idea though.

    Ask for their business license number and ffl info. Check the info with their county/city.

    A quick google search shows that address as a business complex with a total square footage of 14,775 sq feet, a far cry from what they claim. That address is also currently used by a plastering service, Mud Brothers Inc.

    They get a 48.5 out of 100, with 100 being the best.
    Due to the price of primers, warning shots will no longer be given!

    I did a Google search of the phone number at the bottom of the home page. It gave an address in Dade City Fla which is Dow Arms which appears to be a gun repair shop.

    Things ain't smellin' too good.

    I should have mentioned, Dade City ain't on the coast. I do remember a storm event having visited there recently so maybe the shop was transplanted to the coast? Or part of the coast is in Dade City?

    And if it looks like a turd, tastes like a turd and feels like a turd it’s definitely a turd. That website is basically the same format as most of the scam firearm websites out there. If anyone thinks that looks legit they need to be more skeptical.

    FIRST RULE OF BUYING OFF THE INTERNET. AND THIS APPLIES TO EVERYTHING.
    IF THE 'STORE' 'WEBSITE' DOES NOT TAKE CREDIT CARDS, THEY ARE A SCAM.
    Heck Even I take credit cards. STOP with the searching for primers.
    If you can't buy locally, and none of the top 5 online sellers have NONE for sale, anyone else is a liar or a scammer.

    Anything and everything in Dade or Broward county that looks like a scam.....probably is exactly what it looks like.
