1. ISP is now taking around 2 to 3 days to clear a pending background check. We appreciate your patience! We have no control over this. It is the FOID card that causes most of the delays.
2. We are open Monday, Wednesday & Friday from 3-6PM. We have someone in-house earlier to receive packages so DON’T WORRY! Do NOT contact our shippers, (UPS, FEDEX…) and try to reroute packages. You will only DELAY your package from arriving promptly. Our drivers KNOW our schedule!
3. Palmetto State Armory is not sending anything AR or AK related to the entire state of IL! Nor will they ship any magazine over 10 rounds! They have even been shipping firearms WITHOUT mags!!! That equates to buying an auto without a gas tank!
CDNN has been shipping pistols to us with NO MAGAZINES!!! We suggest you do careful research and spend your money where your 2A rights are honored.
See our page “Firearm Sales and Transfers” for a link of a list of pistols that we can not transfer in IL.
4. For the latest information, store hours and changes in IL firearm laws, be sure to follow our Facebook page!
Contact us with any questions or concerns. Text is best at 224-323-0236
