Firefight when CCL-holder tracks stolen car

Wut? -
Out of state CCL holder shoots criminal, not charged
Mr. Fife replied to gtr2009's topic in Illinois Right to Keep and Carry
If it went to court and the judge ruled in favor of the out of state CCL holder, it would set a precedent that they don't want in Illinois. Similar to how before McDonald v. City of Chicago, despite a complete ban on handguns, nobody was ever charged for defending their home with a gun. -

Could have had a LEOSA permit maybe. -
Stay strong Todd. Thanks for the video. Sunnier days are coming soon. Your sweater looks warm and tactical, even if it's blueish 🙂

Poor tree. -
When I first had to register a handgun, it was when Chicago had it's "Chicago Handgun Permit". I think there was a magazine limit back then, so I had to register my pistol with 10 round magazines. I think I also registered a six round revolver, and a 30-30 with a fixed magazine, all legal for Chicago. Since then I added a pump shotgun to my collection and have been confident in my security, but dammit when I move out of Illinois I will own every scary gun that is legal for where I end up moving too, lol. I can't remember if I had to pay to register my guns, I think not, but if I did I would like some recourse to get my money back. This was a long time ago, we've come a long way.

I have several lodge, a couple of skillets and a boy scout style dutch oven. I've kind of become hooked on reading the reddit group r/castiron lately. So at my walk to Aldi's last week I stopped at the thrift store and brought home a skillet I found for $6 made my Ruff Hewn. I know the brand is nothing special, but I will use it as my first experiment in lye bath stripping, electrolysis, and rust removal. I think I would like to build a nice collection to hang on a wall when I get my own barn someday. Lodge is very affordable and is all I use for cooking, but I'm jealous of some barn wall displays I've been seeing in that group. It looks like it could turn out to be a satisfying hobby.

I can't wait till I finally move out of Illinois. On my first day out I will one or two of everything I can't have here now. Why? Just because. Maybe I'll have the space/ distance when I move and they will be more useful for me. Or maybe they will just sit on a wall next to my cast iron frying pan collection. I don't have the frying pan collection yet, even though it's not illegal to have one AFAIK. Anyway, looking forward to goodbye, and to thank for the fish, or lack of lol.

You could probably fill the PVC pipes with concrete and let them dry for a while. Edit. Scrap iron black pipe or similar would probably work too. Not sure is the Egyptians had ball bearings, pinball was probably not invented yet.

States Where Illinois Carry Licensees May Carry
Mr. Fife replied to Molly B.'s topic in Illinois Right to Keep and Carry
We've come a long way! Back in the day I found that an IL, FL, and UT license gave an Illinois resident the best coverage. My FL is due for renewal and I let my UT lapse. Does anyone know the best combination today for maximum coverage? -

Misplaced FOID...

This was at Cabela's, they make up their own rules. -

Misplaced FOID...
Mr. Fife replied to Illinois Sucks's topic in Illinois FOID Application, Renewal & Appeal Process
I would not do that. I had packing tape over my old style Foid, I had my CCW Safe phone number taped to the back of it. I used it to purchase a gun and it was fine for calling in to the NICS check.But when I came to pick up my purchase 3 days later, they said Foid cards cannot be laminated, it makes them invalid, and the tape covered front and back. It also was holding the card together, so I didn't see the harm.Whether it's true or not I'm not sure, but I used my CCL instead and they allowed me to pick up my purchase.
