Zero stars. My girlfriend wanted to purchase a 1911 .45 to add to her beautiful collection of firearms. She knew exactly what she wanted when we entered the store. She picked it out (over an $800 purchase) and presented her current and valid foid as well as her ccp and these people refused to sell it to her. Apparently simply because of my presence they assumed she "might" be buying for someone else. They literally had no reason for making this assumption and trampled on her 2nd amendment rights because of it. They will never receive business from myself, her or anyone I know. For the record, that same day we went to another store and she purchased her new gun. Not only without any problems but also for 100 bucks less...FMS/FJB God bless America and go TRUMP 2024

I recently took my nephew to Mega sports in Plainfield Illinois where i have bought many guns in the last 30 years from this outstanding place of business. My nephew bought a glock 19x his first gun purchase. A young gentleman by the name of Noah helped him he said it was a great experience to deal with such polite friendly and very knowledgeable staff.i personally brought 6 family members and friends to buy guns from this establishment.

Very mannerless staff. It is a terrible place to shop for a gun or other items. Staff is also very unknowledgeable about guns & gun laws. They said I needed a firearms card to buy a magazine. Pritzger would love this joint!

Complete dump with all sort of psycho rules like not allowing you to bring a phone into the store. Bunch of idiots. Just buy online and have it transferred to you by a local FFL for less.

This store has so much potential with its extensive selection of weapons, but let me tell you, the customer service is downright horrid. First off, you walk in and they demand your FOID, fine. Then there's some annoying spiel about cell phone usage, whatever. Oh, and guess what? They're recording you with their surveillance cameras too but you can't take a picture. Now, let's talk about the actual shopping experience. Handguns are behind glass cabinets, organized by brand, but good luck figuring out what's what because it's not clearly indicated. Ammo? No prices. And don't get me started on the staff. There's this bored employee standing there with arms crossed, back turned to customers, and when you actually muster the courage to ask a question, they mumble something without even bothering to turn around. Oh, and if you have any questions about weapons, be prepared to trek to the front of the store and wait in the waiting area for what feels like an eternity. I timed it -- 25 minutes before you even get a chance to speak to one of them. It's infuriating! Want to get treated like an unwelcome intruder? You know where to go now....

Walk in you get badgered about having a foid card. You can't buy anything if you don't have one? There are things they sell that one foid card is not needed but they make you feel different. If you don't have one get out was the feeling I had. I do have one Then I was told about cell phone usage I said I read the signs posted on the doors. Then I was was questioned why I was there. I said to look around. He then gave me a dirty look. Finally went on my way. There was one other customer in this monster building. I was there to look at what they had for ammo. When I went looking for it I found that the area that had the ammo was blocked off causing me to not be able to see what I came There for. I headed back up to the front and asked why it was blocked off and he said I would have to wait for someone to bring me back there to view what they had. This is a store. I don't want anyone to assist me. I had enough. I said you don't need my business have a great day. That attitude they have never goes away. Been there before and was treated the same way. Hopefully they start reading how people feel about how they treat customers. I went else where and spent 200 on ammo. Get with it.

I've lived in Plainfield for 16 years. I have given MS a bunch of money and a fair chance. The employees think they are Navy Seals or something and act like complete arses. I just bought something from them today and looked at the Sig section. Walking over I said to the guy behind the counter Illinois is getting so far out of hand with the gun laws. He looks at me like an insulted him or something. I repeated yeah they make it hard for everyone to sell or buy from good establishments. Nothing.... At this point I'm thinking he's in his 30's now I'm understanding why he's a clerk. Zero thank you zero politeness zero zero. Unbelievable. Last time I go there for anything. Over priced and horrible service

I waked in and they asked for my FOID card. I told them no. They told me to leave. I called the sheriff to come the store. They we told they cannot ask you for your FOID until you want to see a firearm. They were all butt Hurt after that. I looked at 12 different firearms and then left.

So, I have 2 sons who went to Mega Sport to buy shotgun shells for a hunting trip. They are 19 and 23 years old. They get carded for a FOID on entry and they tell the 19 year old that even though he has a foid he can't come in because he's not 21. He's annoyed, but they still need shells. Asks his brother to get him a couple boxes of shells. The employee escorts my son to the back, where he picks out some boxes of shells and starts walking to the register. Same employee then tells him he can't buy the shells because he knows he's getting them for the other kid. Keep in mind, he's treating this like a straw purchase, even though they are both perfectly legal to purchase ammunition. Both of these kids are completely polite and decent kids, it wasn't that their behavior had the employee reaching for a reason to get them out of the store. Now, I've known about how this place treats people for years. I have told them to buy elsewhere. Now my boys know and will never return. No idea how this place remains open when customers are so often treated terribly. Please stop supporting this business.

Visited from out of state. Horrible experience. They didn’t know what to do since I don’t have a foid card. Treated like a criminal when you walk in. Yelled at to not touch any firearms and ammo. How can I everything is locked up? All ammo prices are hidden. A lot of items look like they have been there along time. Faded packaging and price tags. Also no cell phones allowed. Will never go back.

If I could have given less than one star, I would have. This is the worst gun store in Illinois. They cater to the state and are more liberal than most liberals. The employees are rude, and have no business dealing with anyone in the public. The people before us who said this is a toxic environment had it exactly right. With this many bad reviews, they must be trying to get bad ones. Why anyone gives these people any business at all is beyond me.One thing, they do have pretty clean bathrooms. You have to have a FOID card to use it, though.

Not very friendly. Have to say what you want and then wait in line to get into the store. Must have a foid just to enter. So you can't bring your spouse or your sons if they don't have a foid. Other gun shops in my area aren't like that. They do have a large variety of firearms, ammo, and accessories at competitive prices.

What a ridiculous operation. This place will not be in business in 6 months if they keep giving people the Gestapo treatment. Never been to a gun store in the United States before that strongly suggested if I were to pull out my phone while waiting in line I would not be helped "because I could be sending pictures for a straw purchase"
