Hey! I personally have no problem with anyone just trying to figure out what is going on in this crazy state. I'm just glad you are asking nicely!:) I know of no STATE law that prohibits laser sights...It is in the Chicago ordinance....

I can't address what unlawful acts the city of Chicago may impose on its citizens...all I know is that Illinois State law regulates handguns and accessories. No local government can regulate it. What you posted is what Chicago is saying but, it is being challenged...They will lose this fight...

Actually, the police officer should be apprised of those few states that don't issue a permit...But, of course, we know not all police will have this knowledge. However, the state police officers I have talked to say they already give a pass to out of staters. I can't say what percentage of...

In 997, we gave any IL residents with current non-resident permits a year grace period to get the IL permit...this would have eased the rush to get them issued to everyone. When we first heard of the pass through legislation, our first complaint was that non-resident folks would be able to...

It was my understanding that when this was being crafted that you would have to possess what ever makes you legal to carry in your state...So, from Indiana, you would need your permit...Alaska, just need to not be a prohibited person.

I'm With IllinoisCarry.com My wife is Valinda Rowe...She is the main organizer of IGOLD. We spent most of the last 3 weeks of session in Springfield working the bill to law. We helped author the previous carry bills including 997. I'll try to shed light on any issues I see addressed here...

We are winning this battle in IL The only problem is that we don't know how much winning it will take to actually get the bill signed. We are seeing movement toward our goal from all directions, even to the point that our illustrious Gov. is saying he will consider the bill before he vetoes...

I don't understand this logic? from my original post... So yes, I do know it is an older post. I'm not sure this is the criteria we should use to choose our leaders:scrutiny:...I think they should reflect the views of the majority of membership...but that's just me.:rolleyes:

The question wasn't put in context of hunting... From his followup statement after that interview: It made no sense for him to say that he doesn't think you should be able to use a full auto weapon for hunting and limit it to 5 rounds. Is he advocating using a full auto weapon with a max...

This is an older interview but this guy has no business on the NRA board... The vote deadline is April 25th. The ballot is in the March American Rifleman. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uSGySNLyACE

First of all, I did not butcher this rifle...I bought it this way from a Highroader! But, I think it is really cute and handy. It has a Timney trigger and a decent Crown. I am looking for a reasonable priced scope mount to replace the rear sight. I have read some less than stellar reviews on...

Yes, I finally found that part about purchase...Thanks but... How about possessing the handgun...Can a foided 20 year old legally take a handgun to the range and shoot by himself?

I had a young man 20 years old say he was afraid to transport his pistol because he was under 21. We got to checking and can't seem to find the laws the prohibit anyone 18 and older from purchase, transport and use of a handgun as long as they have a foid and no juvi record. It is "common...

ILbob, FYI, We were of the understanding that the LRB (where bills are submitted) would clean up the bill. We were disappointed in their final draft but, the bill didn't last long enough to get fully amended before the NRA lobbyist basically ended it.

Best wishes with your plan.

I repeat: "My program" is statewide preemption. My method is to arm as many potential victims as possible until we get there. No one is more committed to statewide preemption than myself and my wife. Refresh my memory - pray tell what is your plan and timeline?

If you aren't sure of the laws...DON'T CARRY. It is that simple...Again, lets see the numbers of year long incarcerations in the states that had cities opt out! Mr White...Can you currently carry a loaded gun in IL? If you can currently carry, you have less of a dog in this fight! And, I am...

Lets see the numbers... The NRA and folks in carry states are so critical of the "patchwork of laws" which by the way, we already have in IL, but lets see the numbers of "stupid gun owners" that were actually made felons by this approach. How many folks are prosecuted because they "took a...

removed from bill in amendment I believe this section was removed by the amendment.
