Purchased a handgun today and while I waited, for an extra-long time for the "owner" to call…read moresomeone to figure out the computer, my legs and feet were being licked by his dog. I made references to not liking the dog licking me to hopefully have the "owner" give it some command, to no avail. The owner never once told me what the wait was for, I had to ask several times about it. He mentioned switching programs, but it seemed as if he couldn't find the gun in the system. There was very little eye contact or communication. I was finally able to pay, and it was $10 more than the sticker price. He said I was being charged a $10 background fee! No where was it communicated that there was going to be a fee. I don't believe we will be back anytime soon.

I went in looking to order a specific handgun, the employee did not seem to know what I was talking about and when he finally located the gun, he informed me all of his dealers were out of the gun. I went to another store and they got me the handgun in four days. I decided to give the business two stars instead of one because they were friendly, prompt with a e-mail response, prices are decent enough, and they have a very well put together website.

Easily among the best firearms locations in the Chippewa valley. I have bought, and sold, firearms…read morethere, and I have always felt that I was treated fairly, and with respect. I see a lot of comments about Dan being abrasive and rude, and I just don't see that. Sometimes he is a bit short, but I have never personally seen or heard him be rude to anyone. I'm not saying that those folks are liars, I'm simply saying that I have not seen that sort of behavior. I can see how people may come to that conclusion. He has an intimidating stature, and he * can* be short with people sometimes, but neither Dan, or his staff, have ever made me feel unwelcome in his shop. With that out of the way, the shop itself is always fun to go visit. The shop itself is nice, and clean, and well organized. Inventory seems to change fairly often, and there's a pretty good spread of options available on site, and on display. Prices for most firearms seem within reasonable variances that you see in other places. Ammo can be a little higher than average, and some of the reloading supplies are pretty high (which makes sense, reloading isn't really a focus of the shop). The shop is staffed with, in my opinion, friendly, knowledgeable folks who enjoy talking about guns as much as I do. If memory serves, Chris, their smith, is one of the nicest people I've talked to, and is an excellent on-site gunsmith. They offer training classes that cover a wide range of skill levels and topics, including conceal carry classes. Oh, and if full-auto is an itch you want to scratch, they have a nice selection of firearms to rent, including several select-fire options. On top of all that, Marcon has a very nice indoor shooting range, and as far as I know it's the only one of its type in the area. A couple notable personal experiences: Once Dan matched a competitors price on a Glock G20 for me at point-of-sale, even though I didn't ask him to do so. Dan gave me an incredibly fair offer on a handgun that I wanted to sell to such a degree that I would've felt bad trying to haggle for more. He offered me more than I was expecting to get from it. That's my take on the place after being a customer for around 5 years.
