Maxon's

[Mr. Fife]

I received an email from Maxon's yesterday asking me to attend a meeting at the Village Hall about their new facility in Des Plaines. Unfortunately it was sent a couple of hours before the meeting and I didn't see the email until after the meeting was well underway.

 

If I had seen something earlier, I could have attended. I'm not sure why they waited until the last minute, I think that was a mistake. I'm just curious if anyone here made the meeting and has any info to share.

I saw the notice on their website, but too late to change a meeting with out-of-towners.

So they are going to have a new location? Will there prices be any cheaper or is this why their prices were higher? $20 for an hour of shooting was just too much for me. I guess its the price you pay to shoot in the suburbs though.

YEs its kinda high considering you can go to Midwest and shoot as long as you want but they allow you to shoot AR's. I was there a few weeks ago and they were talking about getting zoning to approve it. Now that its approved I cant wait to check it out.

I went there twice. Never again. That place is an environmental disaster with the worst air filtration system ever.

 

Use their facilities at your own personal peril.

Can't wait to visit the new shop and range (more easily accessible from my house, I can literally walk/bike there!)

With a garage full of diesel engines on the other side,

there are bigger problems with that site than just Maxon.

That's why the new site, makes alot more sense, their current site is by a crapload of car dealerships and truck places. Not fun if your trying to access it on foot.
