Nope, simple, she can pick up the firearm at her convenience. All she has to do is show a valid FOID because, you know, an Illinois citizen transporting a firearm in Illinois without a FOID is illegal. No, we cannot release the firearm to anyone else, sorry. No, she doesnât need one to possess the firearm in her house. Catch 22 but hey, thatâs another issue for another court case.... What if someone with a FOID is with her when she goes to retrieve it? The rifle would be released to her. Couldn't the FOID holder then transport her and the rifle to her residence?
