Guys here are at A-1are honest, good, people. Im happy to do business here. Hope they get their plating and smithing service up soon!

Rick is a great stand up guy and will treat you with respect and answer any questions you have for him! Highly recommend this shop for anything from antiques to jewelry.

Very cool Guys , very precise shop everything is on point with no hassel. This is my new gun store 👍🏽

I usually have -okay- experiences here, more firearms than most pawn shops. The problem is, theyll try to sell you a used gun for around a hundred dollars MORE than MSRP. They also have refused to negotiate prices the last 2 times Ive come, even though their location on Waters has never given me any problems doing such. I was not in a good mood after walking 5 miles to purchase something, only for them to ADD 100 dollars to its MSRP. Theyre nearly doubling the price, and refusing to even go down at all. It leaves a bad taste in your mouth.

I’ve gone to this establishment several times purchased from jewelry to guns! Attendants very knowledgeable and friendly. Staff listens to needs and are not out to just make a sale. I’ve recommended several friends to go there to purchase first firearms because the time the staff takes to make sure customers leaves happy with purchase and knowledge of use. Yes shop may be small but has a vast variety with excellent prices. Prior to purchasing I always check online and when you look at online and transfer/shipping your best off walking into A1 Pawn and Guns.. Have bought two and will be looking forward to my next purchase from them!!!

Great experience! Quick and easy process! Will definitely do business with again! Friendly and helpful staff! Highly recommend!

I have purchased a firearm directly from them as well as had them handle an online transfer. Both times the staff was very helpful and polite. They even field stripped the handgun I was purchasing and upon finding it dirty, insisted on cleaning it even though I wasnt bothered. There was a couple there who seemed to be buying their first firearm and the guys spent a lot of time discussing their needs/wants and rather than trying to sell them something. They were actually listening to the customers needs. I am surprised to see a one star rating by a guy ranting about not being able to buy a firearm without a Florida ID. A basic understanding of the law would tell you that you cannot purchase out of state unless you have an FFL. I guess he only gives stars to places willing to commit a felony sale or straw buy. Yes, the shop is small and you may need to wait a bit to be greeted if they are busy. Having been to many places that sell firearms I can tell you that it is not as common as you may think to find people who dont treat the potential buyer with disrespect or even contempt. I would feel comfortable sending a first time buyer here. Their prices are fair as well, very much in line with what you would pay ordering online+shipping/Transfer.

Awesome shop staffed by a very knowledgeable and friendly group of guys...Ive pawned and purchased several items here..

Their customer service is a joke. My husband showed up at the time they opened about 1 week ago to buy bulk items and cars and he was first in line. Other customers came into the store and they completely ignored my husband, not knowing that he was there to spend nearly $1,000 for our 2 online stores as we needed mass inventory. Instead they focused on people who were looking to pawn and take their money versus us who wanted to actually spend money. Their store also looks disgusting and it looks like they havent cleaned in years. Wear a mask walking into this nasty location.

Absolutely fantastic prices, if you’re looking to buy a gun, look here first, laid back homey atmosphere and staff are very knowledgeable and courteous, frankly probably the best gun store in Tampa, couldn’t recommend more.

This guy William Twyman or William Cesaletti whichever name he is using at this time is a liar and a thief his gun prices should be cheap since they are stolen. ..... check out my Facebook ....

Fast friendly and smooth FFL transfers (ie gun sales for auction items). Profssional and knowledgeable staff. Great company!

Great place to pick up a firearm, stick around a little extra and get to know the guys in here there awesome. This is the place I keep going back to also there layaway program is great if you don’t want the wife to know about a new addition to the family.

Only place worth buying a gun

Went in to get a ring customer service was great of the bat. Had two gentlemen help me and had a friendly conversation. Very helpful and I would recommend this place to a friend.

Guys here seem pretty cool. The armorer helped me pretty quickly with an issue with my firearm

I arrived when they opened today to buy all of their Nascar diecast cars (and I was ready to spend more than $600 for it all). As I walked in 2 others walked in after me and they serviced them and didnt look my way once. Horrible service by horrible people and I will never be back.

I was standing in line at this pawn shop today waiting, 2 other people walked in and they serviced them and didnt even look my way. Horrible customer service and I will never be back.

Trustworthy. I bought a guitar from them based on emailed photographs and a detailed description. I am pleased to share that this store packed it nicely and that it arrived in condition just as described if not better. The whole transaction with A-1 Pawn was a pleasure.

Very friendly and Knowledgeable about many guns and servicing of guns. The Gunsmith on sight is a wealth of knowledge And a Vet with real world experience! Did as review said talked with them and I bought a PA-63 9mm and a Remington 870 shotgun they knocked the asking price down for a deal. Fast background check and Made whole buying experience from start to Finnish very pleasurable. I will most deff be buying more guns from these guys. And i know that there Gunsmith can help if and issues should arise with my weapons. Another satisfied American Gun Owner!!!

I bought an amplifier here w.o checking it out, because the store was pretty busy. The Guy told me I had a couple of days to use it, and if I didnt like it, to bring it back. I hooked it up at home, and it had only 1 channel working. The next day I took it back, and returned it w/o any problems. Very nice people at this store!

Been shopping here going on 10yrs. They have a great selection and are very honest. Military friendly, strongly recommend.

Great people and prices, they have a great selection of guns and other merchandise and if they dont have the gun youre looking for, theyll find it for you! Great customer service!!!

A friend of mine placed a deposit with this shop to lay away a firearm she planned to purchase. She went back to buy the gun and was told by the shop that because she didnt have a florida ID they couldnt sell her the gun. Would have been nice to know that up front especially considering the fact they wouldnt return her money. After the shop threatened to call the FBI on my friend and had her sign a hand written waiver saying she wouldnt take any further action, they finally returned a small portion of her deposit. If youre planning on purchasing a firearm I would reccomend a REPUTABLE place that doesnt practice dirty business like this. I would rate this place a zero out of five stars but thats not an option. I PROMISE you this scenario wouldnt have gone down like that had I been there at the time.

Kool people but sold me a gun that d idnt shoot and now Ive been waiting for six month now and still no gun....

Excellent jewelry selection,bought a nice set of diamond earrings ,less than half price of jewelry stores.

Really good experience.. I bought 2 guns and different times and they helped me with my budget and engaged in conversation ... not just trying g to make a sale

Very nice people bought my gun there really good price

Great selection of firearms, all marked with easy to read prices. A++

Just all-around across the board pleasant people to do business with.
