I purchased a firearm online and selected North American Firearms from their list of FFL's that…read morewere local to me after I sent over a quick email confirming the service and fee. Communications were handled via email and everything went as smooth as it could. Bernadette and Jeff are some of the friendliest people that I've met in this community and I will certainly be doing business with them again in the future. One thing to note - some FFL's will start the waiting period at the time of sale as described by the Illinois State Police as it relates to gun sales and transfers. Some FFL's will start the waiting period as soon as you fill out the Form 4473. It's neither here nor there as to who is doing this correctly but at the end of the day, your FFL policies is what you end up following. North American Firearms starts the clock upon filling out the 4473 so just keep this in mind. Best bet is to make the online purchase, head over to fill out the 4473, and by the time your firearm is received by them your background check should be clear and you're good to go.

I had an outstanding experience at GAT Guns and can't say enough good things about Kris, Chris, and…read morethe entire sales team. From start to finish, the experience was professional, welcoming, and genuinely customer-focused. I came in very excited to purchase a SIG Sauer P226 X-Carry Legion, and the experience absolutely lived up to that excitement. I also had a lot of questions--not only about the P226 X-Carry Legion itself, which I'm in love with, but also about several other firearms I was considering. Kris and Chris were both incredibly knowledgeable and patient, taking the time to walk through differences, answer questions in detail, and provide honest, thoughtful insight. What really stood out was how attentive and unrushed the entire experience felt. I never felt pressured or pushed toward a decision. Instead, I felt comfortable, well informed, and confident throughout the process, which made the purchase even more enjoyable. This wasn't my first experience with GAT Guns either. I've purchased items from them in the past unrelated to firearms, and those experiences were just as positive. In addition, several of my family members purchased gifts for me from GAT Guns for Christmas 2025, and they all had great experiences as well, which says a lot about the consistency of the team and the way they treat customers. GAT Guns is clearly a well-run, professional operation with a knowledgeable staff that takes pride in doing things the right way. Between my own experiences and those of my family, they've earned my trust and my repeat business. I highly recommend GAT Guns to anyone looking for a top-tier buying experience.

The range is outdated. Old toggle switch/cable target carriers with no distance readouts. You just…read morehave to guess by the red lines on the floor. Stalls are dark. Had to call the guys at the desk to sweep up the brass. One of the cheaper ranges for a reason. But I want to discuss their sales. As we know, IL has a 15rd magazine limit for pistols. In spite of this, and regardless of your feelings, they completely ignore it and have a ton of handguns with 18+ magazines for sale. Now we all know all the cops that frequent this place off-duty, and GAT feels like they can just skirt the rules. The problem is, if you're caught, they won't be held responsible at all. I pitty the poor new owner that is unaware of this restriction and suffers consequences. Used firearms appraisals? Forget it. Their offers are straight up insulting. Even Cabela's does better. They offered me 2x what GAT did without hesitation. Their ammo shelves are pretty bare too.

Vivian D. at Range USA in Naperville was an excellent instructor. My husband and I took the…read morefour-hour basic safety and handling gun class, and we were both very impressed with how thorough and positive she was throughout the entire course. The class covered the basic parts of the gun, the parts of a round, proper handgun grip, stance, loading a magazine, racking the gun, unloading the magazine, clearing a jam, finger position, the four universal rules while handling a firearm and being in the shooting range, and learning the "compress" position while waiting to shoot. What stood out most to me was how strongly Vivian emphasized safety. She really drilled it into our heads, and I appreciated that so much. Even though there were about 12 people in the class, Vivian made sure to give each of us personal attention. She took the time to help everyone find the correct grip and stance, and she had us practice repeatedly in the classroom so we could enter the range feeling confident. She was very patient, encouraging, and great at correcting mistakes in a positive way. I especially appreciated her help with me personally. I had thumb surgery a year ago and struggled with loading rounds into the magazine, but Vivian was patient and guided me until I was able to do it successfully before we entered the range. I thoroughly enjoyed taking this class with Vivian and loved her approach from beginning to end. I would absolutely recommend this class to anyone looking to build confidence, learn proper handling, and get a strong foundation in firearm safety. Also, the price to take the class for two people was perfect!! Thank you Vivian!! Thank you Range USA!!
