I can not speak to the retail side, but if you are going for the range skip it. The staff is to dim for the job. The range is a joke. Careful when they do a bag check, they dropped half my stuff on the floor. read more

I've been doing business with Universal for over 20 years buying jewelry for special occasions and also having some jewelry repaired they've always provided great customer service and treated me with the upmost respect. More recently The gun range has been a great addition to the shop I go at least once or twice a week, it's very well-maintained the ventilation system is one of the best. My experience is always very pleasant and comfortable. Guns and ammo prices are very competitive and the staff is always very helpful and willing to assist you with any gunsmithing needs you may have. read more

Universal Jewelry Pawn & Gun Range - Very comfortable, great ventilation and well-maintained - Jewelry Near Me - Brandon, Florida

This place is very sketchy and limits and hides information regarding purchases and does not respect constitutional rights! The owner said there is laws against purchasing a firearm out of state and I said I'm aware but the law only applies to pistol and short barrel firearms correct? He said no there's new laws and couldn't tell me what the where so I could educate myself after this interaction I did some further research and concluded that this was an absolute lie and proceeded to make a call to the owner once more he then explained to me that it was just to much work for him and he just didn't wanna sell to me cause he does not have time for the paperwork this is not how you treat people and you should have better knowledge and communication skills as a dealer telling someone you can't vs you will not is completely different! read more

Universal Jewelry Pawn & Gun Range - Jewelry Near Me - Brandon, Florida

If I could give negative stars, I would. They lady in there was extremely pretentious. I went here with my brother to go to the range filled out all the paperwork and was almost ready to go in. I tell my brother that a different range offers better deals and she took it PERSONALLY. She told me to go find another range that pays you to shoot there... calling me broke as if I did not come there to spend money.. She is incompetent so not waste your time here. The other guys seem okay but we did not interact much. PLEASE GO SOMEWHERE ELSE, save the headache. read more

So I went to Universal Pawn and Gun today to browse. When i entered the store the greeting was already cold and ambiance not welcoming. I continued to browse and ask questions. When i went to the register to pay I could not believe the disrespect I received from Mickey - I asked if they have military discount and instead of a polite "no" he went on to tell me "I hate that you guys (military) come in here and ask for free stuff and you bring your own ammo and targets" I told him I'm not asking for anything free, only if they have a discount. He said "why do you think you deserve a discount, i wake up to work everyday and no one put a gun to your head to join the military" at this point I was shocked at his response especially with July 4th tomorrow . I just want to stand for veterans and military as we don't deserve this type of disrespect. A professional "no" would have sufficed but to have been additionally treated like dirt for serving my country in Afghanistan , I am truly disappointed. read more

Excellent range. Courtesy and Great staff. Real safe place , they take all necessary precautions.

Not a good experience. Poor customer service. Want to charge range fees for non-shooting instructors. Inadequate ventilation in the range; a real concern for inhaling lead dust. Although a good selection of guns, I'll take my business elsewhere. read more

Staff is very welcoming and always safe connor is very knowledgeable on firearm safety and answered every question I had will be coming back

These folks helped me out on many occasions. They go above and beyond any of my customer service expectations. I don't like to pawn my stuff when I need a loan, but when I do I will go straight to these guys. read more

This range is great! The staff is very friendly, everyone is knowledgeable. I didn't have to wait long for the range at all. I will be returning in the future. read more

Concealed Carry Course. Staff was friendly and informative. Answered questions and took their time with each of us regardless of skill level. Have used the range previously and is well priced and well monitored. read more

Polite, professional and helpful. Gave us a lot of information about their gun range and guns. Will return.

Horrible experience! The staff was rude and literally watch me on the camera the entire time I was shooting made it very uncomfortable. I understand safety is important and I'm a big advocate of that, i understand all range rules and follow them but felt like they just wanted to mess with me ( i placed an unloaded firearm down to reload, my barrel was pointing at 1 o'clock and they flipped) so I just left. Oh and you have to sweep when your done lol. read more

Just moved to the area, I'm glad I found this place! Great range, good prices and a fun and knowledgeable staff! Will be back!

We really had a great time at the range today! We received great customer service from Jessie! She was able to take a few minutes to show her how to use the speed loader. Great range prices! read more

Came by to try my first time on a gun range with my Dad. My dad, by the way is federal law enforcement and military. Started the paperwork and the staff was extremely rude and hostile. Very bad vibe. We just decided to leave. Certainly would not recommend, the whole was very strange. read more

We had a great experience buying our first gun through them. Carlos went way beyond making sure we understood all the functions and features of the gun. read more

First time there but I found both Joe and Jeff to be very helpful and professional. Safety was stressed heavily making my wife feel comfortable with being there. Later after shooting Jeff spent a lot of time talking to us and helped us look for weapon my wife could use with the least problems. All in all a very good experience and we will be back. PS I should mention that women shoot free on Tuesdays, and that was an added bonus for us read more

Couldn't defend their actions with the truth so they had to resort to BS. These idiots never offered me any kind of refund or any other satisfaction for selling me an overpriced weapon that I could buy online for almost half the price. Then they had to get their own family members to write positive reviews to counteract all the negative reviews which by the way is every review they've gotten except for their family. read more

Great customer service! Great range. Very clean, Honored an expired card I had when they didnt have to, that's awesome I will be back most def!! read more

Do not go here to pawn or sell your items. The owner does not know what he is doing. He looks on eBay and picks something that looks like yours and gives you a low offer no where close to what your item is worth. We had a Gibson les Paul traditional pro and he looked up a Gibson That looked liked mine but was a standard and said my guitar was not worth more than $400. This guitar is like new. They are not comparable to any other pawn shop in my opinion. They are looking to get over on people. They claim to beat other pawn shops. Give me a break not even close. Worst pawn shop ever. read more

Made my first visit to this gun range on 4/1/16. The staff was courteous and helpful. I spent an hour on the range and I thought the ventilation was every bit as good as the ventilation at the "big box" ranges in our area. The range appeared to be well maintained and I had a great experience. I will be going back very soon. read more

Came in a few weeks ago inquiring about a Mosin Nagant. Asked the guy behind the counter about one and he told me he had one. Proceeded to show it to me yet I didn't recognize what he was showing to me. Come to find out it had been modified to fit an archangel stock. In my mind a Mosin is in its proper wood furniture so I didn't really think he had understood me. I question whether that was a Mosin and he looked at me like I was stupid and got very impatient. He then proceeded to ask his Co-worker if that was a Mosin just to be a smart ass about it and sure enough his co-worker said yes. How was I supposed to know it was switched out to that type of stock? You just expect people to know these things. I mean don't get me wrong there's a lot of gun knowledgeable people out there but I'd never seen or heard of such Mosin conversions. He could have at least told me "yeah, we've got one but it's in an Archangel stock" then could have proceeded to explain to me what it meant. Instead he was very unhelpful and plain out rude. I've been here a few times to check out their inventory but no more. Apart from over priced used guns, they've got horrible customer service! Will never do business with you guys. read more

Very nice, convenient and affordable pistol range in the middle of Brandon. They don't charge any "membership" fees, just ask that you fill out a basic information page and verify you are who you say you are before handing you an I.D. card. The range is clean and I especially like that it is well sound-proofed. I will be bringing the wife next time and expect to to punching a lot of paper here in the future. Slightly better ventilation and cooler A.C. (though that is hard to find at any range in FL) would be my only recommendations. read more
