I’m actually not seeing much here that surprises me - universal background check is coming whether we like it or not. What isn’t being reported here? I’m sure shooters are going to get screwed somehow.

Left Wing Whackjob Thanks!

Same here. Now a resident of New Hampshire. Bite it, JB.

Ok, I have to ask. I don’t remember seeing “LWW” when I was hanging around here before, and Google is no help.

I left IL, in part because of the gun attitudes but more because of one party rule and taxes.

Nice to see a reply that isn’t defeatist! That’s my thinking, too.

I’m now a NH resident with a NH DL and carry license. License issuance took 18 hours, only because the person who processes them at my local PD was already gone for the day. NH is constitutional carry but issues a license on request for reciprocity purposes. IL requires your home state to have substantially similar requirements to be eligible for an IL nonres. But, when I was in IL I satisfied the training requirement, and if you have a IL FCCL I suspect they all get run through the system every night, not just resident licenses. This feels like the basis for a legal challenge. What do y’all think?

So you have or have not applied for FOID?Youre coming up on 60 since applying? Cause its only 30 days till you expire if its 6/1 as you say! And if you applied 60 days ago, (as I read your post) you should get it sooner than later as they have 30 more days till it expires..... Gotta love Illinois, we need 60 days now, BUT we might have to take a full 90 don't call us we'll call you! Renewal submitted 3/7.

I’m coming up on 60 days for my FOID renewal application - let’s see what they do. Mine’s valid until 6/1.

New FCCL and FOID arrived today.

That was faster than I expected! Expiration 02/28/2019, applied for renewal 11/16/2018. Prints on file from initial license. Active 12/05/2018.

I don’t remember - is “QCVerified” visible on the page or only through inspect element?

Why dont we track how long renewals take? Expiration 02/28/2019, applied for renewal 11/16/2018.

I just found out my wife didn’t update her FOID when we got married last year. We just processed the name and address change, let’s see how long it takes.

So even if you have a CCL, you have to disarm when you walk through the lobby area of your residence? Not that these laws have ever made sense, but hopefully someone will take this one to court. Your question is vague at best. This is where it's a grey area. My opinion is if you are in a hotel then your dwelling is your room. I would think you would have to disarm. If your residence is your abode / home and you have to walk through a public right of way to get to that residence then you shouldn't have to disarm. Read 430 ILCS 66/65 ©. You decide. © A licensee shall not be in violation of this Section while he or she is traveling along a public right of way that touches or crosses any of the premises under subsection (a), (a-5), or (a-10) of this Section if the concealed firearm is carried on his or her person in accordance with the provisions of this Act or is being transported in a vehicle by the licensee in accordance with all other applicable provisions of law. "Public right of way" has a legal definition - I don't think this applies here.
