Best prices in W. Western WA?

Seattle_Chris · 04-30-2007, 07:58

Has any poll been done here RE: lowest gun prices in Western Wa? I'm looking to pick up a PM9, new (as I'm not a highly trusting type of guy) and of course don't wanna pay more than I have to. :D I don't mind a BIG drive though.

Federal Way Discount Guns has the lowest prices I've seen, in some guns BY FAR.

From what I've seen in the little nickels,I agree Fed Discount is pretty consistently the cheapest.
Ben's in Renton is/was also and Sam's in Evrette also does really good.

Hmm, is Ben's JUST a pawn shop, or do they also carry NEW guns? Sam's website makes it look like a really nice place. Too far to drive for regular shooting, but for major purchases I'll have to check 'em out.

Defenantly going to check out Federal Way Discount, since Federal way isn't usually a bad traffic situation for me. Do they have a range too? I've done some digging and see that their site has been offline for a while now. Anyone know if their working on getting a new one up?

Oh sweet. It's really close to Burger Express. If anyone is out that way, look for a little burget joint I think almost across the street from the KEG. Order yourself up a BOZ burger and Shake. You won't be disapointed.

Burger Express is heavenly, as is nearby Herfie's.

FWDG does not have a range, nor likely any intent to bring a website back up.

Seattle_Chris, if you purchase your firearm at Sam's, you get a free 1-year membership to their indoor 25 yard pistol range. As a member, if you bring your own firearm, ammo, paper target(s), ear protection, and eye protection (which can be regular glasses), then all you have to do is let them scan your card and you don't pay a thing all day.

Also, most of the rangemasters are a great group of guys. There's one that's kind of an @$$, but once you accept his personality and he gets to know you, a mutual respect develops.

I'm lucky enough to live up in Edmonds, so it's not too far of a drive for me. Also, they allow rifles there in the special high-powered range for members (has a shredded-tire backstop rather than just a deflector), but that will end come January 1st, 2008.

free 1 month pass to the range, not 1 year. Great place to shoot though.

Mostly a pawn shop, but they do have a large selection of new guns and accessories and will order anything you want. It's been a couple of years since my last purchase there, but I recall the FFL charge was pretty reasonable.

Sorry 'bout that, the time-period slipped my mind, due to the late/early time I posted.

and you had me all excited... I was about to go purchase a G26 to get a years worth!

Now I've gotten a PF9 and a XD9 from Federal Way Discount Guns. Got the PF9 for ~$250 (all black, but it's gone and gotten a bent assembly pin, so it's back to the factory) and the XD9 (two tone, black on bottom, silver on top) for ~$450. Both significantly cheaper than I found elsewhere in the Southend (of Seattle). And the guys their seem helpfull.

Yup and DJ's Loans in Bothell has some great pricing on new and used guns.
