I have no affiliation with them at all:

Shoot Straight has NIB 92FS for $429

Good deals on other 92 flavors as well

Reputable dealer?

I bought a 92 compact from them a few weeks ago. They have M9s for $499 also. They are GTG.

I have done a number of deals with Shoot Straight via GB. They're good to go from my experience. No credit card fees and $10 shipping.

They have many locations here in Florida, they have been around for quite a while. Reputable, yes, but I'm not crazy about them. Personality thing, the prevailing attitude in the store just seems to rub me the wrong way. Other people might not be bothered by it.

Their prices on Walthers were great, practically giving them away. But, their attitude in the WPB location bothered me sufficiently in the 3 times I’ve shot there while visiting.

Picked up a 92A1 for $499.

M9A3 for $799

The attitude is a bit interesting, it there are some great deals to be had.

I teach CWP at the Shoot Straights in Apopka and Casselberry. I've been buying guns there for 20+ years. They're always going to make some money on the deal, but you can trust their grading. The Berettas are all NIB.

I've bought from them a few times in south Florida, the front line folks are good to go, management a bit more plucky.

Shot at the Tampa range when I lived over there, uneventful at that time.

They do have some pretty good online deals at times. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from them again, as was mentioned they will make some money on the sale, but pretty much have the best full service shop around.

I miss them at the local gun shows. They would dictate the deals in the show and they had many of them. I bought quite a few from them over the years directly and online. Also, if you are in Florida and there is a Shoot Straight near you, they will deliver it to the S.S. store you choose for no charge.

In person they're the shittiest people to deal with. No matter the location they're all staffed by assholes.

However, they have good deals and provide what they say they will.

I had to suck it up and go deal with them a few weeks ago. They had a Beretta 81 and 87 standard in stock at my local store for hundreds less than I could find online. For a few hundred in savings I can tolerate attitude for 30 minutes.

That's interesting.

I recently moved to Tampa area. have been to 2 locations so far and both gave me good service.

One location I was 'just looking' and the 2 guys were pleasant and conversational as I inquired about Florida ownership / CWP / purchase requirements, etc.

The other location - the one by the Clearwater CG base - I rented range time and the guys were professional and helpful.

Obviously who you get behind the counter is a bit 'luck of the draw'... they had some really good sale prices for a brick and mortar store. Was tempted by a Beretta M9a3 for $799.

Cant speak for anything in the store, but for an online sale, it was an excellent transaction

Damnit! Why did you have to post this? I went to goingbroker.com to check out their deals and ended up bidding on someone else's 92 Inox.

I ordered one of the Inox Compacts and it was perfect. The Shoot Straight folks, could have been better....... had to deal with a supervisor.

Some deals there on Berettas and walthers. I went in and while CS was not great they weren’t a problem. Maybe it’s time of day and weekend dependent. Right now there are Beretta deals around the net.

Just saw an Italian made 92fs “victory” model with wood grips, target rear sight and steel trigger - prices range from $500 to $729 online. Wonder if they’ll have one.
