The majority of their sales representatives have a know-it-all attitude and the funny thing is that they know a lot less than they think. They treat you cold and if you ever have a question they act like it's an inconvenience. They will not come up to you and ask if you need help so you end up stand...

Before I start with this, I'll mention that we had previously gone to Article II to look at guns to buy before coming here but needed to see a CZ-75 in person.

We got in and the place was huge. I will admit they have a very large selection. I found guns that I hadn't really seen anywhere else, wh...

Wow, I'm perplexed by the bad reviews. I've had great experiences with all my purchases. My 12 year old son was even allowed to hold an LAR-15. Josh has been great. Answered all my questions. Helped me choose ammo. I'll continue to shop there.

They are selling serious products to the public. Afte...

When I purchased a new gun they treated me okay. When I picked it up the boy had a attitude, was very annoying, was making sounds like my wife when she's mad! I spelled one thing wrong, it took him close to an hour to release the gun to me. I understand that things happen but let's treat the p...

Pretty sweet store for gun and sports enthusiasts. Unfortunately it is in Illinois, which is overwhelming regulated, and requires a FOID card to even look at a firearm. And for me, being from out of state, this was a total buzzkill.

Walked in and was treated fairly well. Once I asked to see a firearm it was the customary "let me see your foid card" stuff. Then they would not sell me an AR because I live in cook country. Thanks for standing up for the Second Amendment. They government infringes on my rights enough, its awesome ...

I understand that when selling a gun you have to take the correct precautions and they have a certain procedure to follow. I went into this store to buy my first gun and I have a phone case that is my wallet as well so from the beginning of walking into that store I was pulling out my phone case/wal...

I moved to Plainfield at the end of April of this year from out of state. I have spent approximately $2000 in that short period. One of the things I purchased was a scope and mounting hardware for a gun that I had ordered. It was about $700. So when my rifle arrived I called to ask about mounting th...

There is a great selection and the range is clean. However, the dealbreaker is that their prices are high for everything. Don t forget your FOID even if you have your CCL as this will prevent you from holding or purchasing a weapon. This is not an issue with any other business. IL doesn t require C...

Purchased a few items. Basically fair pricing. Bummed about service. When I asked a few questions, I was told "I don't know " and it was simply left that way. I would've hoped to have something more than a clipped response. I should've spent my money elsewhere.

Great selection of stuff here. I'll always come here to look at something or see if I like it but I'll probably go somewhere else to buy it. They're a little more on the pricey side and some of the staff is pretty dismissive. Ammo pricing is pretty competitive but they range is pretty expensive for ...

Let me start by saying this gun shop is huge, they probably have the biggest selection of guns in the will county area. That being said, they know it too.

This waste of a retail space "sporting store" is the worst place to buy a gun or shop for anything for that matter.

Great customer service. Great selection of anything you need for home/self defense to hunting and fishing. A little pricey but worth the customer service from their vast knowledge of their variety of products to making sure you leave happy with your shopping experience with them.
