The Quantico MCX indeed has a fairly extensive gun counter and a very friendly and helpful staff.
You should be aware that the MCX gun counter will also will conduct FFL transfers; charge is $15 + $2 for the records check. It's a GREAT service!
AFAIK their only restriction is that that they won't do inbound transfers on barrels <3.5" (although my 3.46" Glock 27 was "ok")
Pay particular attention to the residency and ID requirements listed at VA Transaction Program; the MCX counter follows these to the "T."

Lastly, you might want to check out the Quantico Shooting Club, there aren't too many 1,000-yard ranges available anywhere else.... Presenting evidence of equivalent experience with a firearm through participation in organized shooting competition or current military service or proof of an honorable discharge from any branch of the armed services ...
