Stop Khaled Akkawi DBA Florida Gun Shows, Inc. Rentals

ripped us off on sale of firearms

One of his employees at Shoot Straight actually tried to scam me out of $200+, thinking I wouldn't read all the paperwork they were throwing in front of me. Would love to see Shoot Straight go out of business entirely. It's a shame so many gunshows are ran by them.

I like and support gun shows but I also support snd defend a vendors right to sell his wares at any gun show without being bullied or blackmailed into monopolistic regime that has the intent of squeezing out the littler shows in the name of profit. It would be enough to just put on the best gun show and let everyone do their own thing. If they cannot compete,,, without being blackmailed and ostracized then so be it…. BUT DON’T DO IT ILLEGALLY.

It’s outside of this guys power to make decisions regarding these shows.

Unacceptable

The most unliked person in the industry. I have also met met who he tried ti rape, while the worked for him. They were teens 18-19 yo at the time. Try disgusting humanbeing.

I am a retired Police Officer & in the past was afforded a discount of $5.00 to target shoot at Khaled Akkawi's Shoot Straight of Bradenton range in the past. He has now raised his price for L.E.O. 80% to $8.00. Some show of appreciation for the hard work we did!

THIS PERSON..KHALED AKKAWI HAS NO INTEREST IN AMERICA'S PEOPLE OR THEIR WELL BEING...ONLY HIS WALLET... HOW SOON HE FORGETS THE WAY HE STARTED...NOW HE DICTATES LIKE OTHERS WE TOOK IN

You may not like what he does but the fact is that Khaled has broken no laws. There is a big difference between unethical and illegal. To be honest, as a Capitalist I don't even see anything unethical. I see someone using every tool at his disposal to minimize competition and maximize profits. You may not like what he does but if it were illegal you would not be passing around petitions, you would be calling law enforcement. Business is Business and Capitalism is all about survival of the fittest. Nobody ever said life is fair and if that is what you were told then I hate to break it to you but you were lied to. Khaled is loyal to his friends and takes good care of his employees. He's a shrewd businessman who started out with a dozen or so guns in the trunk of his car going from Gun Show to gun show. He busted his ass to get where he is and he didn't do it to make friends.

He dug his own grave now let him lie in it.

If everything I have heard about this guy is true he should be under investigation by both the DHS and DOJ.

I love you Khali

Screw him is not right, + they @$%£¥₩&#! Anyway

What he is doing is unethical and illegal, he should be stopped

Khaled Akkawi has displaced the God Syndrome on a smaller scale just at his gun show tables in the past. Now he is doing it on a larger scale trying to muscle out smaller vendors and honest competition. It looks like unfair labor practices to me. Fair competition is always a good thing.

If this is illegal, why aren't competitors filing suit to stop this practice?

Getting sick of the same old over priced vendors at the gun shows. I would love to see some new venders

I'm sooooo glad that everyone adversely affected by these unfair business practices toward competitor vendors in the gun trades by Khaled is going after him and his organization as a strong group!

I refuse to do any kind of business in his stores. All of his minions are arrogant assholes..

As long as they pay, let vendors choose what shows they want to attend. No need for threats.
