  1. Past hour
  2. Long, rambling discussion in the Sun-Times: https://chicago.suntimes.com/the-watchdogs/2024/03/29/bruen-supreme-court-operation-legend-heriberto-carbajal-flores-george-floyd Gulasekaram says Coleman’s ruling means other non-citizens without violent backgrounds could successfully challenge their gun prosecutions. Willinger doubts Coleman’s reasoning will catch on, though, because of the burden that case-by-case assessments would create. Ellis, one of the judges who found the felon-in-possession law unconstitutional, identified a separate problem in her order last month. She said the Bruen ruling itself thrusts judges into a new role, one that she said she felt ill-suited to fill, that of "playing historian.”
  3. Well it was legal when I bought mine 9 years ago. As far as I can tell it's still legal since it's a pump gun and doesn't have a pistol grip or detachable magazine.
  4. Today
  5. Thanks for the recommendations! I think I made a selection, thankfully close to home.
  6. You;re going to be part of the larger presence...
  7. Weather (and bad back) permitting, I'll be there.
  8. So glad this has finally been resolved for you. So sorry it has taken them so long...
  9. I put it on my calendar. Might have to venture out of Ogle county and attend.
  10. Yesterday
  11. Did it several years ago. My reps were nowhere to be found. I'll keep doing witness slips,emails,etc but no more trips to Springfield for me. Besides,the 18th is my Bday and you shoot for free at GAT [2 minutes from me] on your birthday,which I'll do that day.
  12. It was a little more than complaining. The law and JCAR actually changed to specify that licensees should not lose time. But even after the law changed, ISP still renewed licenses with the dates cut short. Then there was complaining.
  13. 15dec 2023: got a DENIAL of my appeal on my appeal :). fun. No explanation, letter said "Prohibitor stands". The prohibitor being me not being a permanent resident. 10 feb 2024: my residency has been confirmed and got the papers. Sent them to ISP same day. 12 mar 2024: got a letter from ISP saying my prohibitor had been removed, they told me to reapply anew for a FOID. Applied same day. 28mar2024: FOID approved after 16 day-review. Overall took me: fist application - Aug 2022. start of the process. appeal - Aug 2023. rejection. appeal of appeal. rejection. Prohibitor removed. FOID approval - Mar 2024. end of process. ===
  14. Even closer at 1 hour from the QCA - Carry On Range in Rock Falls tells me their 3 HOUR CONCEALED CARRY RENEWAL CLASS is still open for registration. There's nothing in the Quad Cities (that I can find or would attend) for 8 weeks. https://carryonrange.com/events/ Again good luck and don't wait/dawdle or these will fill up. Illinois is drying up for FFL's and Trainers unless you want to travel. VooDoo
  15. Scouring the web and read the Illinois law. My read is that this is legal in Cook County. Any reason why it wouldn’t be?
  16. Of course he made that omission on purpose. He was avoiding Godwin's law.
  17. Wasn't coined by the Germans as he says, was coined by Adolf Hitler for propaganda. Very important detail he conveniently leaves out. Made up term copied from Hitler and once again used for propaganda and to disarm Americans.
  18. I see nothing wrong with the above suggestion. This is just another option. You could mail it back to the ISP. This is from the ISP website. "How do I cancel my FOID Card? Simply mail it back to the Firearms Services Bureau at 801 S. 7th Street, Suite 400M, Springfield, Illinois 62703. Include a note that you would like us to cancel the card and why. Be sure to include a telephone number where we can contact you."
  19. If it looks like rodent behavior and acts like rodent behavior...you know the rest. I may be driving down from Lake County.
  20. Can you make it to Peoria in April? https://centralillinoisconcealcarry.com/schedule/ Good luck! VooDoo
  21. No assumptions here. Your renewal button becomes active 180 days prior to your expiration. When you get your renewal notice from the ISP, your renewal button is activated. You can renew now and your new expiration date will run concurrent with your current date. You will not lose any time as was their practice in the past. After enough complaining the ISP changed their ways of renewing the CCL licenses.
  22. Yes, your expiration date will remain the same as it is now, regardless of your new approval date. Check the website for your renewal button. I think it is 90 days prior to expiration, but don't know for sure. Just did my renewal late February. Took 3 weeks to get approved and an additional week for a new card, ... (I changed my hair color as it's more gray than my younger days LOL).
  23. Is it fair to assume if you renew before expiration it will extend from the current expiration and not the renewal date? I got the 6 month renewal notice and just got the 3 hour done, I'd like to just get it over with now. I also heard someone say (not the instructor) you can't renew before 3 months from expiration but I haven't tried yet, logged in that's it. I don't see this on the ISP FAQ.
