Only $40.00 per item, this includes all Illinois taxes and your background check. Please take note; other dealers claim to only charge an additional transfer fee of $5.00 dollars for each additional item. This is completely false once you arrive and complete your transaction. They will charge you their regular fee for each item and add an additional $5.00 dollar multiple item charge. They make it appear that additinal items are only $5.00 dollars each, however you will be duped, I have been!
All consultations are free of charge to current clients.
Free of charge to current clients. We can perform this service while you wait! WE can get online while you are here, order your products, get our FFL over to the vendor and get your paperwork and FOID check going. In three days, you'll be back to pick up your item!
All products received will be assessed using our state of the art Fiberoptic Laser Bore Scope. This is to assure your new or used pistol or rifle meets your expectations before you accept transfer. No other FFL offers this service. This is not a simple bore light, but rather a medical grade Fiberoptic Laser Scope. All our clients have access to this state of the art technology any time, to accurately assess their bores. Just bring in your item, (in a case) and we will take care of the rest!

What are the Illinois Waiting Periods?
IN SUMMARY;
The Illinois State Police (ISP) concludes that the waiting period to purchase a firearm as defined under state law, 720 ILCS 5/24-3(g) begins when the buyer and seller reach the "agreement" to purchase the firearm.
Pursuant to Illinois law, 720 ILCS 5/24-3, sellers must withhold delivery of a long gun, rifle or shotgun, for 24 hours and a handgun for 72 hours from the time the application for purchase has been reached. Violation of that provision is Unlawful Sale or Delivery of Firearms and is a Class 4 Felony, punishable by up to 1-3 years in the Illinois Department of Corrections.
Illinois State Police have been fielding an increase in requests for clarification on how to abide by the waiting period and when it begins.
According to 720 ILCS 5/24-3(g) the waiting period of 24 or 72 hours does not begin until after its application for purchase has been made. The statute defines "application" as:
"For purposes of this paragraph (g), "application" means when the buyer and seller reach an agreement to purchase a firearm."
In People vs. Hurtado, 208 Ill.App.3d 110 (2nd District, 1991), the Second District Appellate Court took the position that "application" was a "request". The court said:
"We therefore conclude that the legislature intended that the term "application" have the meaning of "request" and the statutory requirement is an informal request to purchase a firearm. Since we believe the legislature intended that "application" mean "request," we shall use the terms "application" and "request" interchangeably. "
Illinois statute picks up on the Court's reasoning in Hurtado, and formalizes that there is in fact intent to buy a firearm by virtue of an agreement. The statute does not spell out what needs to be in the agreement, or the manner in which it is to be memorialized.
ISP concludes that the waiting period to purchase a firearm as defined under state law, 720 ILCS 5/24-3(g) begins when the buyer and seller reach the "agreement" to purchase the firearm.
So, once you make an agreement to purchase, the clock starts ticking. Vendors ship out 2 Day Air. There is always 1 day or more of processing time. So, by the time your item reaches our shop , your wait period has concluded.
