chicagoresident Posted February 6, 2018 at 04:20 AM Share Posted February 6, 2018 at 04:20 AM HB4502 DISPLAY OF IMITATION FIREARMS "Dealer" means any person, copartnership, association or corporation engaged in the business of selling at retail or renting any of the articles included in the definition of "air rifle". Synopsis As IntroducedAmends the Criminal Code of 2012. Provides that all imitation handguns shall be sold from behind the counter, in an age restricted area, or in a sealed display case. Provides that a violation is a Class B misdemeanor. Defines "imitation handgun" as an air gun, air pistol, B-B gun, paint ball gun, pellet gun, or any other implement that is not a firearm but is designed to resemble and has the appearance of a handgun whether or not the implement is capable of firing any shot, bullet, or other missile. I realize this is a gun forum, but is this implying paintball fields can't rent paintball markers to kids under 18? Or is it just regarding the sale?

mauserme Posted February 6, 2018 at 05:38 AM Author Share Posted February 6, 2018 at 05:38 AM If you're suggesting the definition of an imitation firearm is much too broad, I agree. This bill is listed as one we oppose over in the volunteers thread for that very reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C0untZer0 Posted February 6, 2018 at 02:17 PM Share Posted February 6, 2018 at 02:17 PM The ability to completely control the legislative schedule and move bills straight from the Rules Committee to the floor for a vote is another one of Mike Madigan's unusual powers as a Speaker of the House. In other states the Speaker of the House does not wield that kind of power. In other states, bills are scheduled in advance and heard in a logical pre-determined order, usually first in - first out. The ability to launch a bill as a surprise attack is a huge advantage for Madigan. It is hard to get people to understand all the different facets of Madigan's power and how he is really more powerful than the governor or any other politician in the state. We mobilize and start calling our representatives, but Willis can wait and hope that gun owners get tired of calling their representatives and if it looks like gun owners are starting to show signs of fatigue, she can then ask Madigan to bring the bill to the floor. All of the anti-gun votes will already be lined up and ready to go but it will take some time to re-energize law-abiding gun owners to get them to start calling again and during that time lag Willis hopes to get the bill passed.
