I'm in Bolingbrook, right by the Ikea off i355 and not far from i55. The FFL I used to use when I lived in Wheaton either moved or passed away (it's been years since I've bought anything through FFL), and I'm getting really frustrated finding a local FFL who's number isn't disconnected! Sure I can go pay stupid amounts of money and have the item delivered to a local shop, but I've always appreciated finding a small, local FFL who's really into helping out fellow owners and collectors. So the FFL searches are failing me. Anyone know of a good FFL in Bolingbrook, or really near Bolingbrook who doesn't charge too terribly much? Any help is greatly appreciated! |

Thanks Veela, that sounds like the kind of people I prefer to work with. I'm glad to give someone like that my money for good customer service.
Nolan, you sure that's Wheaton and not Glen Ellyn? I think I've used Cliff before. Decent experience, but I'm in Bolingbrook now and looking for someone right around me. UPDATE: I've been going through every FFL search engine I could find, and calling every single number listed. I think I found a guy that's literally within walking distance of my new house in Bolingbrook. I'll try him out, and if it's a good experience, I'll update this thread again so others might find this information useful. |

Be aware though that they will not fax over their FFL. They mail it, so the process is a little slower. |
