Better to do something than to decide to do nothing. It's about decisions and deciding not to participate is probably the worst decision you can make. VooDoo -

Well that's me...ridiculous. You make no sense to me....fight an unconstitutional law but don't use their rules to guide us (which can be a felony) when our choices are do not comply, move yer **** out of State, Sell it, or register. You tell me. What's to be done? I'm out. Sincerely, I have made my decisions and hedged my bets. I have figured out my options and need no more from this forum. Good luck, sincerely. VooDoo

Agreed. All we have at present are the emergency rules some of which are vague at best. In my opinion, the best we can do for now is look at The Pica Guide and read the flow charts and descriptions of what constitutes an """assault weapon""" under the present rules. Basically any semi auto that can accept a large ammunition feeding device and has one (or more) of the """assault weapon""" attachments including (but not limited to) collapsing/folding/thumb hole stocks, flash hiders, threaded barrels, pistol grips, etc constitutes an """assault weapon""". So. after looking at Ruger's options and available variants of the 10/22 (super thanks for the heads up!) there are obviously some that will fall into the banned category even though they are stock/unmodified. https://ruger.com/products/1022/overview.html The Takedown Lite looks to have a shroud and a threaded barrel. A number of variants have threaded barrels. Pretty sure the Target model has a thumbhole stock. So, yeah, there is no simple one size fits all answer and until we get JCAR to give us a finished set of rules it looks like we'll have to play this game. I actually had my State senators office forward a list to their contacts at the ISP and got a response (finally) that is vague/incorrect according to the Pica Guide and FAQ's. It's pretty obvious that the ISP Rules and Definitions are flawed and vague. IMO. Bob Morgans people told me to "just register everything you have" to make sure I covered all the bases. It's a mess, but we all know that. VooDoo

I found this: https://constitution.congress.gov/browse/essay/artIII-S1-4-3/ALDE_00013522/#:~:text=The Supreme Court has repeatedly,attorneys who engage in misconduct.&text=See United Mine Workers%2C 330 U.S. at 299.&text=18 U.S.C.,§ 401. So they have the power but I'm still searching for examples/precedents where they have actually done it. VooDoo

I'm seriously asking because I'm ignorant - exactly what are the consequences for a lower court judge that ignores or even flouts SCOTUS precedent? If say, the purchased/bribed justices on the Illinois Supreme Court openly defy/flout and disregard SCOTUS precedent, what exactly are the consequences for thumbing their nose at the highest court in the land?
