Legality of shipping an antique replica revolver to IL?
McCroskey replied to justminutemaid's topic in Gear
If it shoots a projectile it's a firearm, even if it's a replica of an antique IMO. I'd have the seller ship to FFL someplace outside of the city, then make the drive out and pick it up. We have a number of FFLs in nearby suburbs listed here. -
Ahh, good old Joel from Luckygunner. I wasted days of my life on that guy a few years ago. https://illinoiscarry.com/forum/index.php?/topic/54598-online-ammunition-sellers-who-will-ship-to-chicago/&do=findComment&comment=935383 For all I know he's running Annunition Fairy in additional to LG and BA. If so, he will give you boilerplate responses like the one you got through Luckygunner and you'll get nowhere but frustrated. I asked if he could pass me along to whoever actually owns Luckygunner or to their "legal team" he referred to and he absolutely refused. Part of me thinks this guy just owns and operates multiple websites and uses a drop shipper and the "owners" and "legal team" he refers to are nonexistent. Don't hold your breath for them to reevaluate their rules, either. He said the same thing in 2015.

Here's one I started back in 2014, but people didn't really participate much and it archived. Though it's national, not just Illinois. http://illinoiscarry.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=52546

FOID denied
McCroskey replied to ROSCOE8688's topic in Illinois FOID Application, Renewal & Appeal Process
I hate to say it, but with multiple felonies not only are you not getting that FOID but the ATF is going to flag you to the gun store when he sends in your 4473. From the ATF: I dunno why you applied, you have to know they would just reject it. -
FOID Screw UP
McCroskey replied to 45b's topic in Illinois FOID Application, Renewal & Appeal Process
This wasn't a revocation, this was a denial, according to the OP. A denial based on something that happened more than 5 years ago. Not to mention when she was a minor. I don't understand how they can access someone's medical history like that without violating HIPAA anyway but I'm not an expert on that. -
Henderson vs United States
McCroskey replied to Molly B.'s topic in Judicial Second Amendment Case Discussion
I hadn't read about this case. It sounds like a simple "ownership doesn't necessarily mean possession" argument, but it seems like it could have ramifications for the FOID as well. -
My license was in my mail today!

quick question on FOID app process?
McCroskey replied to hyde_'s topic in Illinois FOID Application, Renewal & Appeal Process
I would say hope for the best with your FOID. If you get it, then hire an attorney to get your record expunged. I think you have a pretty good argument to do so, considering it was a school fight and you've been clean ever since. I wouldn't try for a CCW until you've resolved the record part.
