I'm pretty sure they won't look at it that way. As mab22 pointed out, they are making it impossible to comply with the law.

There is no way comply with the requirements. Fire resistant? How in the world do we get a "fire resistant safe" in a car? I'm not even aware of a fire resistant car safe.

CCL/employee shoots jewel thief
cnwfan3 replied to Euler's topic in Illinois Right to Keep and Carry
I'm not saying he is committing burglary, robbery or theft, that's for the police to decide. I'm just pointing out what the law says regarding what is a forceable felony and why they may or may not charge the employee. Personally, I think the thug got what he deserved. But keep the law in mind if it ever comes down to being in the same situation. What we see as a clear case of self defense, robbery, or burglary many not be viewed the same by law enforcement. -

Yes, burglary the intent to commit a felony or theft entering a place without authority. That's the difference between theft and burglary. If the person was allowed to enter (thus with authority) it's just theft. That is why shoplifting is considered theft and not burglary. I don't disagree that he didn't deserve what he got, but according to the law, he didn't commit robbery or burglary, which are forceable felonies. He only committed theft which is not a forceable felony. -

Neither Robbery or Burglary happened, it was theft. Robbery is theft through the use of force. Burglary is breaking and entering into someplace illegally (where theft or robbery may, or may not have been committed). Theft is just taking something that is not yours. Since he didn't use force to commit theft, and he did not illegally enter the place, what he committed was theft. Theft is not a forceable felony. This could be why they are considering charges. https://www.usnews.com/360-reviews/services/home-security/burglary-vs-robbery -
A Glock 25 has very very little recoil. It's the same size as a Glock 19 but in .380. Also the Glock 28 is very low recoil as well and that's the size of the Glock 26 but in .380. Both were just made available in the US within the last year as a special production run from Talo in Glock's Smyrna GA plant. I just bought them both as range toys and they are about the mildest recoiling guns (outside of a .22) that own. I could shoot them all day with no hand fatigue.

My FFL (and few I talked to) said that they just don't want to store the paperwork, it's not worth it to them. They will, however, do the transfer just like you were buying a new gun. Fill out a 4473, wait 3 days, pay their normal transfer fee and you are on your way.

Wow!! I didn't see that coming. Happy days!! Hopefully whoever take his place will be much better and lead the NRA in the direction it needs to go.

This ^ ^ Not to mention the Blair Holt ""assault weapons"" ban has been the law in Crook county since 2006. I don't recall even hearing about one person being charged with violation of this law in Crook county. By no means I'm I advocating anyone to break the law, but many are way way too worried about this. People doing something stupid that are caught may be arrested and charged, but I just don't see them going "door to door" to check for compliance to all foid card holders.
-
The store is doing that incorrectly. I have bought plenty of "bullets" (not cartridges), cases, powder, and primers at many places here and online recently, and none have required showing your foid card. My guess would be that is the policy of the store. Stores create their own policy based on ignorance. If a store is doing that, they are incorrect in doing so.

So called "Assault Weapons" have been illegal in Cook county for a while (I believe the Blair Holt AWB took effect in 2006 in Cook county). I have not heard of one instance of anyone in Cook County being raided and/or swatted because of suspicion of having an AW. I don't think much is going to change in Cook county from what was happening before. The fact that you are worried about it is exactly what they want. They want to scare people into compliance. If you are that concerned, sell it, register it, or get it out of the state until this all blows over.

I think the bottom line is that if you ask 100 people what is legal and what is not (including lawyers), you will get 100 different answers. The law contradicts itself all over the place. It's poorly written and confusing (probably intentionally). It's going to take someone getting arrested, charged with a crime, then going to court to flush out what all these convoluted rules really mean.

Can Law Enforcement demand to see an FFL's 4473's?
cnwfan3 replied to Vodoun da Vinci's topic in Illinois Politics
Sorry, I didn't realize you were being sarcastic. Normally that would be in purple. I know what the ATF has been doing is illegal. I was just asking about IL and if they were illegally copying 4473s too. Unless they are, they really have no way of knowing who has what and can't really enforse PICA. -

cnwfan3 replied to Vodoun da Vinci's topic in Illinois Politics
I know it's illegal, but when has that stopped the state from doing anything. I was just wonding if that state was actually doing that. But from the replies, it appears they are not. I was just wondeing if they would do that to get a list of people who own "assault weapons". Unless they do, they have no way of knowing who owns what. -

cnwfan3 replied to Vodoun da Vinci's topic in Illinois Politics
Is the state copying all the 4473's to make a registry? I'm curious if that was their intention passing the dealer licensing act. -
I have CCW Safe. They are more prepaid attorneys rather than insurance. The big difference is they cover you up front and generally have someone out to you within 24 hours. I believe with USCCA, they reimburse you after it's all over if you are found innocent (If someone had USCCA, correct me if I'm wrong).

Anyone see this? https://uintahprecision.com/product/upr15/ A true bolt action upper for an AR15. Anyone think IL-ANNOY would accept this as a bolt action gun? Seems like this would meet the requirement of not being a semi-auto.
-
Does anyone own one of these (Kali Key setups)? Just wondering how they work. What are the chances IL-ANNOY will accept an AR15 with one installed as a bolt action gun? At one point I looked at the Troy PAR pump action ARs, but it look like they are no longer being made.

Have Questions About the new Protect Illinois Communities Act?
cnwfan3 replied to mauserme's topic in Illinois Politics
Interesting that they call out a semi-auto rifle with a flash suppressor (they don't say a threaded barrel). But any semi-auto pistol with a threaded barrel is an assault weapon. Why is a rifle with a threaded barrel ok (as long as it doesn't have a flash suppressor) but not a pistol? -

cnwfan3 replied to mikew's topic in National Politics
Unfortunately, I'm sure Newsome will appoint someone much worse than her. Better the devil you know than the devil you don't. I thought it couldn't get worse (and might actually get a little better) once Madigan was gone. I stand corrected.
