  1. The State Police have Guidelines that they follow. So unfortunately if you have a Felony Conviction, even if it’s from 50 years ago. Most likely you will be denied a FOID. The easiest way for you to find out what’s on your record is to visit the Main Courthouse in the County that your arrest occurred And Purchase a copy of your CBR. If you do find that you have a felony conviction that old, I would suggest too you to contact Molly B. In this forum and also do your own research on Gun Rights Restoration! If it’s been over 20 years and you haven’t had any Police trouble then you may have options. A Pardon from the Governor is fail proof if You can be granted one. But I’m just a guy who knows a little, seek out true counsel from attorneys at law... Good luck to you!
  2. I have a very serious question and need helpful advice Fast!!! So On Monday my cousin was stopped by Chicago Police and he was armed with a Master-Arms Mac-10 pistol wth a 30 round Mag and the fake Suppresor that comes with the gun. He is a valid Conceal Carry holder. Can you guys explain to me why he was arrested and charged...Not for the Gun but for the fake Suppressor which was a FELONY And the 30 round magazine that they said he wasn’t supposed to have...
  3. I have gotten through to speak to a live person at ISP (217) 782-7980 on several occasions. I always call at exactly 9:01am or just before 4pm. Admittedly I am one of those people who will hold the line for 20 mins.
  4. This could quite possibly be true. My Brother applied over 30 days ago for his foid and it still says under review in ISP site.
  5. This is pretty simple if the charge was pleaded down to a misdemeanor that resulted in conviction for simple battery then he will get the Foid Card. That is not a disqualifying offense and law enforcement cannot object to issuance of a FOID Card. Tell your buddy to apply and smile. It’ll be on the way.
  6. Can I ask if you were convicted of the felony or just charged with one???? Also if you are granted an expungement then it is erased from all law enforcement and public records so there would be no reason for you to put yes to that question. And certainly re-apply.
  7. No Sir. I would however give up a Certain Weapon if it was agreed upon by the majority of members of my community that it is the best interest of us all to not have that particular weapon in our district. It wouldn't stop me from arming myself nor protecting my family and property. If I didn't agree I would either store the weapon in a district where it was legal or I would move to a district where it would be legal. But thats just me Sir.One of the beauties of freedom is that the members of your community may, on their own, choose to not purchase a certain firearm. If they agree with your sentiments that may happen. Forcing your desires on a community against it's will and against it's enumerated right is, however, the opposite of freedom.Choose freedom. It's a wonderful place to be. I will certainly give this Comment my final reply to any on this thread. There was a Man who became President in our great land of freedom and liberty. His position was you must Give up your Property as it is wrong and you cannot and shall not possess it any further. Over half of the Country disagreed with this President and the Country went to War over it. Hundreds of thousands died because they felt it was their inalienable right to own their property....Hundreds of thousands died in opposition of those beliefs....That President was Abraham Lincoln war was the Civil war and that property was Slaves...Freedom Sir has always been paid for in blood.
  8. No matter how law abiding any citizens is none of us can carry a weapon into a Bank, or on a Plane, or into a Courthouse. It's for the safety of the General Public that we all collectively surrender our rights and in those instances we rely on a Security Guard or a U.S. Marshals agent or a County Sheriff to protect us should violence erupt. As soon as we leave those places we can Arm ourselves. I shall never believe that giving up any Particular Weapon in a Particular District in anyway takes away the right for me to bear arms. I have offered up my OPINION on this issue for days now and that's all it is my OPINION. God bless you all.

  10. Molly I have read the federalist Papers and I do realize the Second Amendment originally was meant for defense through form of civilian militia. With you personally Molly I could never go back and fourth Because I would be totally biased, close my mouth and agree with whatever you say..............But as for Others my Beliefs specifically on 2nd amendment will forever be from a Progressive Perspective because when the framers formed it people such as myself were slaves and not citizens and the only law that I would've been protected under would have been the right for a Slave Owner to claim me as his property. So until the civil rights act of 1964 (when the civil rights act of 1875 was actually enforced under the law) I did not have equal rights. So my views might always differ from the Original interpretation of second amendment that many here may appreciate. And my view may be unpopular here but I'm a voter just like everyone else and We all can exercise our voices at the ballot box.
  11. Listen it should be quite clear that I won't be moved on my beliefs the same as you won't be moved that the "Founders had it all right" I've shown you that the SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES agrees with my position not yours. You claim to be freedom loving but when that very freedom is exhibited through the form a vote within the highest Court in our land. A decision was reached and concluded that LAWMAKERS can ban not all but CERTAIN WEAPONS but you are still arguing that you should be able to Own whatever weapon your money can buy you. It just doesn't fly.
  12. Papa!!! That does So please enlighten me! If there was ever an attempt of tyrannical takeover in this Country. What use will you have for any of your small arms if there's an Abrams tank outside your door Sir? Go ask the Palestinians how their firearms have held up against Israel. That argument stinks. $ You apparently have never heard of the sock bomb. It'll take the tracks right off those tanks and then they are sitting ducks. $ Papa!! Were you aware that Abrams can hit a target over a Mile away??? You understand my point, your a very smart fellow. When the Constitution was written a rifle could basically enable a civilian to have the same fire capability as the soldier. In this day and age the civilian population would have no chance against the US Military and hellfire missiles and Smartbombs. Again the argument is nonsensical in 2018.

  14. If you yourself feel that you are depressed and need to seek professional help. I think firearms may not be a top priority for you. I'm sorry your going through whatever is causing this dark space for you. But Depression may clearly be a red flag that at the very least you just may be a danger to yourself. I really hope for the best for you.
  15. This AK-47 Draco is perfectly Legal for home or Carry without the worry of a Ban because it is considered a Pistol.
