Pros
  • Great selection
  • Good pricing
  • Very helpful
  • Very good price transfer fees
  • Owner is great to deal with
I had heard of this FFL, but for some reason had never been there. It is currently home based. There was a steady stream of customers that came in while I was there. Steve was helpful with every one of them. He answered all the questions everyone had, including mine. Glad to be able to do a transfer here. This FFL handles class 3 items as well. I will definitely be back and recommend others.

11-15-22 Update: I'm on at least many private party transfers here and today picked up my first item that was purchased directly from AFS website. The website has lots of options, both in stock and to be ordered. I'm going to keep going back.

4-5-23 update

Steve is always great to deal with. This is my favorite FFL to deal with to date.

  • Great Personal service!
A good friend of mine referred me to Steve at Adaptive, Thrilled to find out that he lives right down the street. What a gift for us! We have done several transfers, purchases and build kits with Steve at Adaptive. He is always friendly, fair and full of great advice. With a good selection of Suppressors, Mags & accessories. And always willing to help you locate what your looking for. Steve is great resource and solid guy. Do yourself a favor and check him out, he will be your gun guy for life. Thanks Steve!!

Steve was a great guy to work with. I had so many questions on different subjects and he took the time to answer all of my questions and never seemed to be in a rush or bothered, even when he had other customers coming in. Set up an appointment and check him out. Highly recommend.

I made a firearms transfer at AFS yesterday and had a nice conversation with Steve. The world of firearms can be pretty overwhelming to beginners. I appreciate his "there are no stupid questions" philosophy and willingness to help folks figure out the best tools for their needs. I'll be back!
Always great to do business there!

Anytime I buy a gun online, I go through Steve. He is a great resource and always helpful. If he doesn't have what you're looking for in stock, he can find it for you and order it.

  • Quick, easy and very professional!
Sold a firearm to a fellow here on NorthWest Firearms. The FFL transfer was quick and easy. I think we spent more time chatting than it took for the actual transfer.

Thanks again!
Great communication, cool setup, definitely recommended.

This is a very small shop, but IMHO its the best FFL in all of Portland... the prices and level of service are unbeatable, and Steve just might be the nicest dude on the planet.

I would pick Steve over any other FFL in the Portland area for any kind of transfer, buying any suppressor, or ordering any kind of specialty parts... this is the best shop in town and Steve is a saint.
Go-to FFL

I've been going to AFS for transfers for a few years now and it's always a good experience. Steve's service is the best I've found in the area so whether it's for guns or suppressors you can be confident that you're in good hands.

Best prices for FFL transfer as well!

  • Business designed around accessibility of FFL and SOT services.
learned of Steve through the forum initially. He gives a ton back to this community in the form of affordable FFL services, SOT accessibility, and stock with the end user—you—in mind. No agenda, no ego, which is huge for the firearms industry.

Steve is great to work with. I have had multiple firearm transfers through Adaptive Firing Solutions and have had at least two firearms shipped to his location I purchased from out of state vendors. All transactions were smooth as silk.
