    I do not understand this, rogue judge?

    A illinois judge just ruled that an illegal alien can carry a gun without a FOiD card if he is otherwise law abiding. I need help with this one. I have needed my FOID for over 50 years to do anything with firearms in my state. Now a judge just tossed that in the trash for this guy...

    Browning BAR

    Browning has a beautiful sporting BAR thats available for sale in Illinois. What can anyone tell me about it. It’s 308 caliber, might it function well with 7.62 x 51? We’ve lost most all our semi auto rifles to the new law. This seems interesting.

    Possession vs Ownership.

    On another site I frequent it’s suggested that ownership of a state banned firearm is not illegal. It’s possession in said state is. So one can just move it to an out of state storage site and or relative and ride our the ban/ registration system. This below is the statement “That same concept...

    AR Pistol.

    Need help understanding if the unbraced standard AR pistol has become an NFA item. Keltec, HK, CZ and others make these and they are no more adaptable to a shoulder stock than a “normal”sa pistol. Do those with standard hand guns need to get on the NFA train now? Thanks

    TROs and their aftermath. A question.

    In Illinois we are living with an AWB implemented in January. Several regional courts have ordered TROs for their regions and the particular plaintiffs. The ban is still in place for the vast majority of the rest of the state. One of the LGSs involved has resumed sales of items on the banned...

    Getting involved on the front line.

    There are solicitations going out to Illinois citizens asking them to become plaintiffs in a lawsuit against the new anti gun law passed recently. What exactly does that mean in terms of time spent and public scrutiny of ones life? Some one has to believe they have been harmed by the new law and...

    Illinois AWB signed

    It’s long and hard to figure out the details, it is intimidating. Can make felons of many many thousand of people who other wise are totally law abiding. This is what’s most distressing. https://www.ilga.gov/legislation/102/HB/PDF/10200HB5471lv.pdf

    Where does one start?

    If one wants to move a gun collection out of their state of residences without the collector moving also, where would one go to research it. Are there restrictions in federal.law pertaining to securing a collection out of state. Could one store a collection with a family member, locked in...

I have my FOID and deal with all the other limits and restrictions in my home state. Now this is...

    Cataracts and shooting sports

    My old eyes are in need of repair. It’s recommended that I choose between 2 lens replacements. One would allow me to see closeup without glasses, using them for distance. The other would require glasses for reading and not for distance. The fogged , blurry, double vision would clear up and you’d...

    Greetings from the ATF

    Anyone ever get such a notice from the ATF. I’m a C+R license holder in Illinois and occasionally get Form up dates and stolen gun reports. The State Police run the FOID and CCL programs so the two working together is to be expected. Anyone been to such a gathering and what can you offer about...

    National gun registry question.

    https://thetexan.news/atf-says-it-has-over-900-million-gun-records-stockpiled-in-response-to-congressman-cloud-inquiry/ Heard about this information. I understood that organized government “registration” of all guns was illegal. I would think 4473s would be available for the ATF to scrutinize...

    C+R License question.

    Renewed mine back in the spring of this year with an address change. The new license arrived with part of the old address and new address combined on the new license. Got it straightened out with another form and a couple phone calls to the ATF. I voided the old one and put it with the paperwork...

    Oil/gease combo??

    There seems to be many different oils folks use on their guns. From Rem oil to 75-140 gear oil to Kroil and on infinitum. For long term storage, any preferences? Or just wipe them down with any good clean oil and stow it away?

    What actually changed today that adversely affects us.

    These executive actions leave me wondering. For most of us it seems nothing changed after all the hoopla. Am I reading it correctly.
