Few here, I believe, are lawyers so you are getting opinions on individual interpretation of the law as we read it as there has not been a specific case afaik. While not named on the list, the gotcha for the Mini-30 could be as mentioned above with regard to the Mini-14 that

 

"Shall include, but not be limited to, the assault weapons models identified as follows:

(A)The following rifles or copies or duplicates thereof"

Best bet for an effective 200 yard or less rifle in cook county is an M1 carbine with no bayonet lug on the barrel band. It's not named and lacks scary features. 10,15, 30 round magazines available. Weighs about 6 pounds and the stock is short so smaller people and women can use/carry it without issue.

 

You can get a railed scout mount to replace the handguard on the stock and then mount a cheap TRS25 red dot to it and you have yourself a very handy little carbine. The .30 caliber rounds are available in ball, hollow points and soft point. At .38 cents a round you can afford to practice a bit. The low recoil is very nice, like shooting a 9mm carbine with the ballistics of a .357 mag.

Good post!

 

LOL Now show us your setup :)

 

Also there is a good chance (read: hope) that M1's will become plentiful in the near future from surplus.
