  1. When I saw an online article about this my first thought was wow, rogue AI bot making things up. I should of known better. If gov jellyroll believes you can tax a right, then maybe they should implement publishing taxes for the media. Let's say $1 per word printed or spoken.
  2. I bought ammunition in IL for several years when I had my IA driver's license. That was in the early 2000's. It never seemed to be an issue.
  3. I give it 30 days before the gang-enabled engineers have a new switch for the V model.
  4. I took my P365, P365XL, and P320 XCarry out to the range after work. I had a friend that wanted to sight in a rifle, and brought his P320 also. Note, all my guns mentioned have Wilson Combat grip modules. None of these guns have the loose, rattling slide that is shown in the videos I watched. My 365's have tight slide to grip fits, and my P320 has just a slight movement and a very slight front to back rocking on the slide. We tried really hard (with unloaded guns) to make the gun discharge in the ways shown in the videos, no luck. On my friends P320, there is more slide movement than on my XCarry, however nothing near what the videos suggest. We couldn't make it discharge either. We even got some of the rubber mallets from my shop and gave them good whacks, nothing. I do have to say that the flat-faced trigger in my XCarry is a completely different trigger than in his stock P320. I was amazed at the difference. Both of these P320's should be manufactured after they implemented the "fix". What does this prove? Nothing really. However it is interesting and made me feel better about the P320 that I own. That said, the slides on my P220 Duty and P220 Match are very tight and no wiggle at all. YMMV.
  5. This is why we cannot have nice things.
  6. My guess is that your CCL status shows up if LE runs your license plate. A cheap license plate scanner and you can upload the data to several publicly accessible databases to return the vehicle owner however that should not get you to the CCL status, or they could of supplied the license plate scans to someone on the inside of ISP (most likely) who ran the plates and returned the CCL information. If the ISP did the searches, there would be log files in their system that would show whose login/credentials were used.
  7. Until freedom loving people fight the liberal wackadoodles using the same tactics they use, just keep feeling good losing because you stood your moral ground and the other side didn't fight fair. You have to fight them on a battlefield they don't own. Some of the money going to legal battles should be going to internet forensics teams and other investigative research. Sometimes you have to get right down in the bottom of the swamp and get dirty and fight them on their own terms.
  8. I've carried my P320 X-Carry frequently, and I've tried to get it to fire without a trigger pull while at my range. It seems to be functionally solid. I keep wondering if as the new wave of hammerless carry guns without traditional safeties has flooded the market, if we are seeing the result of people with legacy bad trigger discipline have problems with them. The old style safeties would save them, the newer style guns not so much. I also agree that the Israeli style of carrying with the chamber empty is a far better idea than is given credence to. I've had to brandish my weapon twice in the last 10 years or so, and the sound of the slide racking got the desired attention and the desired result.
  9. A couple of years ago one of our IA BLM activists gave a fairly well-reasoned talk on why the blanket firearms prohibition for those convicted of felonies was racist in nature. I think shortly after that talk she was told to STFU by her democrat over-lords. She recently came back out in support of the IA Freedom Amendment and I think they may have stuffed her in a crate and sent her to team Tulsi.
  10. I wonder if some of the legal logic used against abortion laws comes into play here. States have made access to abortions illegal without making abortions illegal, and the courts have said that you cannot restrict access to a legal procedure. So if having a firearm in your home is legal, and the FOID card law restricts access to something that is legal, does the same legal logic apply?
  11. Please add Cover 6 Gear http://coversixgear.com/ One of my favorite IWB holsters.
  12. I've witnessed down here in Kansas City a couple of these types of protests against gun-shops and ranges. I was impressed by the way the pro-gun/2A people pretty much swarmed the location effectively nullifying the anti-gun protestors. The ratio of pro-gun to anti-gun people down here is a lot more favorable than in IL, however Kansas pro-gun organizations seem to be really well embedded into the anti-gun communications and get enough advance warning to rally the troops. I love the idea posed. You could have the dealer put a coupon code in their register POS system and in their e-commerce system so that they could tally the purchases in response to a protest.
  13. I'm guessing the IL political machine is now fully engaged in Pres. Bush's strategerie concept.
  14. We should all send one of those travel sized bottles of mouthwash to Lisa Madigan. I heard she threw up a little in her mouth when this was announced.
  15. Very nice job by those involved! It will be interesting to see how the ruling is twisted and interpreted by the IL political machine. My guess is they will allow open carry only in areas that are not within 500 foot of any building, tree, sidewalk, road, or oxegenated air
