My boyfriend and I purchased handguns when visiting Texas and needed an FFL dealer here to ship…read morethem to. With the current market for firearms in this country, it was hard to even get a call back from gun shops that also performed FFL transfers, presumably because they were so busy with sales right now. Very glad to have found Suburban Arms Transfer. Marissa is very responsive and prompt, and setting up an appointment for the transfer is online and very easy. Fees are very reasonable as well. Although they also do consignment sales of firearms, their specialty is FFL transfers, so you can rest assured your request is not going to fall into a pile like it might at a gun shop who doesn't have time to bother with your $25 transfer when they are trying to sell $700 guns. They are in the northwest suburbs, and it's a safe and nice area. Bit of a hike from the city, but worth the convenience to know that the process was going to be very streamlined.

My wife and I came upon there booth at the Bloomingdale Septemberfest and we chatted and picked up…read moresome information regarding their services. My wife is a novice with firearms and I have some experience with them but she has always wanted to take the Concealed Carry class. Very nice people and explained everything we asked. I was more drawn to their FFL services personally!! I found a nice rifle out of Texas and sent a few emails regarding their procedures and not only were they answered but responded to within the hour! Their website is laid out nicely and easy to navigate with concise procedures and information. I made the purchase and paid for it. SA was already notified and they texted/emailed as soon as they were in possession of the rifle. Made an appointment (next business day) and went to their location, filled out paperwork, inspected the rifle (which was secured in a very nice safe) and I was done! Maybe 30 minutes because they were VERY streamlined! My wife wanted to take the Concealed Carry class through SA so we signed up and was SO pleasantly surprised! The class was for Oct 16/17th (16 hours) and we completed the course Day 1 feeling really good! Actually all I can say is WOW!!!! My wife whom is a novice was so engaged and made to feel extremely comfortable throughout the entire process! Day 2 was classroom and then range time. In the classroom Sean explained everything and even broke down the laws in laymen terms as well as everyday scenarios so everyone understood it! Range day- Sean and Pat were phenomenal! Extremely safe and very fun! They kept everyone engaged and mixed things up nicely to limit any down time! If anyone is even remotely thinking about taking a concealed carry class I can not emphasize enough how good Suburban Arms is! They also take good care of Veterans!!!! Cant wait for the next level of training they offer! If you are on the fence regarding their services just jump off and jump in because you will not be disappointed by the level of professionalism!

The service here is outstanding... perhaps the best out there as they don't come across as I know everything and your just a newbe. The place can be a bit hard to find as it's in this very tiny strip mall and you figure a gun range has to be somewhat big to accommodate the ranges. Right? Well, here the entire store and range is underground, so the entrance is literally nothing but a door which leads directly to a set of steps going down. The store and range certainly show their age and have been well used. But, from a business perspective this apparently keeps the overhead low as I find the prices here very reasonable! As for the range, the check in process here is perhaps the easiest of all ranges in the area. These guys are very accommodating and I like that fact that they encourage openly on bringing your kids along. The range itself is cramped and very loud. Okay, yea I know we are shooting off guns here and things just get loud, but here, the sounds really reverberate and I can really feel the shock wave at times when a .357 or higher is being used. I don't get this feeling at other ranges. The range can also get a little smokey at times. Despite these conditions, I really do like coming here as I get the feeling of being welcomed and I just feel very comfortable at these ranges. Some of my tightest patterns have been shot here and I think it has to do that I'm very relaxed when coming to this range. If you can, it seems that during the week days, just at opening time, the ranges is generally not as packed and I find it a great time to come.

By the way, his blog and website are filled with tons of great information, so check those out.

I struggled with operating some of the guns because as part of the class, a variety of guns were rapidly introduced to the class. Then each student would try to operate each of the guns; but because I have small fingers, I was not able to manage all of the guns. The way she spoke to me in front of the whole class, made a scene, was humiliating and unprofessional. I haven't returned to Maxon, would not recommend it.
