Re: Best gun shop in Roanoke or surrounding area?
As far as guns go I'd recommend buying off Gunbroker then having the dealer you buy from do a FFL transfer to somewhere like Trader Jerry's who charges 25$.
Most of the dealers around here have increased prices quite a bit due to a perceived influx in gun buying. The influx was there during the first part of Obama and the elections but has subsided quite a bit. Unfortunately that dying out has not dropped the prices around here.

That may be the case, somewhat, but if this is your first handgun, I'd suggest going to all the gun shops and handling everything you can. Find what fits your hand best, and when you decide on that, then you can look around for the best price. Doing an FFL transfer isn't worth the trouble sometimes.

This definitely. It's almost worth a day trip to find a gun shop/range that lets you rent what you are interested in. I don't know where you can find something like that though.

Re: Best gun shop in Roanoke or surrounding area?
I stopped by there yesterday! its like 10 for target, 10 per gun, and you buy ammo. I will be going there to shoot a few to see what I like. I like the way the glock 40 and the springfield xd both feel. Im gonna shoot them and see what sticks. Both are 50 bucks from each other, however looks like I can save about 100 if I buy form internet. The guy at PSS was cool, not as nice as the guy paul over at bryansteens (what ever the name on peterscreek)
