Latest Illinois Gun Legislation

[TomJ]

Attached is the link to HB4107. In addition to banning bump stocks or anything that can accelerate the rate of fire of a gun, it's the latest attempt to ultimately ban AR's as well as other rifles and impose a 10 round magazine limit. I also attached a link allowing you to find the names of your representatives. Please call them and politely ask them to oppose this.

Illinois State Rifle Association appears to have caved and is supporting HB4120, the ban on bump stocks.

Accelerate the rate of fire?
Like pulling the trigger faster?
So would that make quick draw shooters illegal compared to a beginner?
I didn't know there were devices that actually make a mechanical action move faster than their actual cyclic speed as set forth by physics.
Maybe I'm not that smart.

On the local news tonight, they reported that one of two gun ban bills died but they didn't state the bills number. What they DID say was that it was the more restrictive bill that included a bumpstock ban, magazine size limits, trigger modifications, etc.

4117 failed, that was Moylan's bill which was far more than just bump stocks.

Just like cockroaches, they'll be back.
