Quoted: +1 for Stan at St. John's Firearms. He'll work out some great deals on parts & Accs., especially when you do business with him on guns.
Most of my guns are bought out of state and transferred through The Doghouse in Jax Beach though. He does transfers for around $30 and is easy to deal with.

When I lived in Jax I got around to most of those places:
I've bought some accessories and have done a couple of transfers with Stan at St. John's and a transfer with (if I remember right) Jim at The Doghouse, both are nice guys and pleasent to deal with. When I had three AR lowers transferred in one order Stan charged me one transfer fee, everybody else I talked to in town wanted a seperate transfer fee per serial number, not per order. (I thought it was BS to have to pay $90 in transfer fees for three stripped Stag lowers, but that is what most of the places in town wanted.)
I bought some handguns, a shotgun and a rifle from Shooters over the last few years, I always dealt with Rob at Shooters and got great prices, just have to haggle a bit sometimes, never had a problem. At the gunshows I have attended in Jax and Tallahassee they usually had the lowest prices or where equal to or would match another vendors at least.
There is a group out of Orlando that comes to the Jacksonville gunshow sometimes, Weapons Unlimited, they have some decent specials sometimes.
Gun Gallery has an indoor range and while their prices on handguns are usually a little higher than Shooters they used to throw in free range time with a purchase so that makes up for it if you use it and go shooting a few times. The guys working in there were always friendly.
