I've been shooting all my life and I'm in my late 60s. I've been to countless ranges all of the…read moreChicago area, as well as all over the country. Mega Sports has got to have the most unfriendly, bad-attitude driven employees I've ever encounters. Want to rent a pistol that you may want to purchase? Expect an attitude. Want to look at a $1200 Kimber to possibly purchase? Expect an attitude. Have any questions about anything? Yep! Expect an attitude. And their shooting range? Wear a gas mask. I doubt those filters (if any) have been cleaned in the past 10 years. Take the time to drive to any other range and you'll be glad you did. It's a shame, too, as they have one of the largest gun inventories around. I'm guessing this range is corporate owned, because anyone I know that would own a business where the customer comes last, wouldn't allow it for a moment. Everyone would be fired, and new hires would be trained to realize that the only reason they have a job there... IS FOR THE CUSTOMERS!

Bought a Shotgun here a couple months back. Experience was SO bad. Every worker that I encountered…read morehad that typical douche bag I know everything mentality. I'm telling you, these guys will bust your balls over everything that you say or do. I don't understand why you'd have a job at a gun store if you seem to absolutely hate other people that buy guns. Not helpful at all when it comes to questions or concerns. especially when you spending upwards of $1,000 on a shotgun. If I felt like this was just a one off sorta deal I definitely wouldn't be leaving a review. Shit I never leave reviews on anything. I just would hate for a first time gun purchaser to be turned off from the whole thing because of these overcompensating assholes. Please people save yourself the time and money and just go someone else. It is not worth it!

The course material was presented very well with opportunity for questions and answers. There are plenty of other training classes offered other than Concealed carry classes.

I highly recommend HBT Tip: it is right off 159th street but if you are not familiar with the area, use GPS to guide you.

I highly recommend Standard Force to anyone needing a firearm instructor that will work with your busy schedule.
