https://www.wbaltv.com/article/us-supreme-court-declines-challenge-maryland-assault-weapons-ban/64944887#:~:text=A split Supreme Court declined,the case%2C as is typical. Well, 🖕us.

Is this another state licensing scheme over and above what was recently enacted with Illinois FFLs? “The Illinois House Gun Violence Prevention Committee is holding a public hearing today in Springfield on House Bill 3320, the so-called “Responsibility in Firearm Legislation (RIFL) Act, and Prairie State gun owners are encouraged to contact committee members and ask them to reject this measure.”

Talk is cheap, they’re paying us off with babble. Call me when they repeal the Hughes ammendment. The same bunch working on cutting taxes and the deficit by trillions is gonna get us our gun rights back. surrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrre.

Folks are holding out for a SCOTUS rescue that will never come.

I do not believe your membership level allows voting rights.

Done Good luck

Thanks, ill give it a try.

Well, I got back in after resetting the password twice. Got to the point of uploading the photo. For some reason it’s the size of a dime. I don’t know if I can dump it and try again, any thoughts?

Want to get a FOID for wife. She had one decades ago and let it lapse. We went on line, it was not a smooth process and we ended up with a window stating we need to call a number for further verification. What happened,if anyone can tell me.Thanks

https://www.cnn.com/2025/04/07/politics/new-york-moral-character-gun-law-supreme-court/index.html SCOTUS has sided with the government deciding if you’re of good moral character when it comes to carrying guns. Next it will be owning guns. I never believed we would get rid of FOID or get guns back that have been banned by PICA. This will play out for a while and then the State of Illinois will move against us again. I was at a meeting with a State Rep. some months back and asked him if the witness slips we send in effect the legislature. Not if they are opposed to legislation the majority and Governor want passed. They pay no attention to our protestations. But we know that.

I repeat myself. Anyone care to name the needed Democrats who would vote to support this. It would be much easier to nome those who would filibuster such a bill to death.

It’s $87 with new ink prints for FBI back ground check. Good for 7 year. I’ll be 80, maybe, and will be where I going to end up anyway.

Who here is ready to bet the farm on SCOTUS throwing out all the AWBs in the many states. So one day 5 conservative justices are going to order all the states with gun and mag bans to open the food gates. I no longer believe there is any chance of that ever happening.

Thanks all. I’m going down and look to rent for a year and travel backp and forth at first. Have family in Tampa/Saint Petersburg so we know the area. From Wisconsin south to Florida I believe Illinois/Florida covers the path, permit less carry Ill read up on, thanks for the heads up. I know you can move pretty seamlessly through the gun culture in many free states with permits and my C/R so probably will reup one more time.Appreciate all your input.

I had a Utah and Florida CCL before my Illinois. I let Utah expire some years back and now my Florida is up. Any important reason to renew my Florida if my ICCL is valid there. It’s the only place I vacation and would move there if wife could be convinced.

By the next census Illinois will lose another house seat. My property taxes are up 32% in the last 3 years. It’s only going to get worse. I told my wife I’m visiting family and friends in Tennessee, Georgia and Florida, they all left Illinois, and find us a better place to live. We’ll rent for a year and look for a permanent home. I’ve had it.

The High Road, Shotgun World, AR15.com often direct folks here when Concealed Carry questions arise. Nothing wrong with IC, just nothing major happening at the moment.

Straw purchasing has always been an issue. Accusing everyone in the sales chain of aiding and abetting illegal international gun trafficking is a REAL stretch. According to this discussion they are not targeting named dealers who allegedly make the straw purchases. That doesn’t make sense to my non legal mind. WOW! At the end Justice Kavanaugh said when get down to it PLCAA is about protecting the Second Amendment right of all Americans. If lawsuits are allowed to end gun manufacturing, distribution and sales it ends that right. He says this suit should be denied.

I’m listening to the SCOTUS argument. It’s on YouTube from a few days ago.

So what are they trying to accomplish by suing Smith and Wesson. I understand antigunners in the US trying to put manufacturers out of business. Mexico is a narco state run by drug cartels. Are they just trying to change the subject?

How many firearms can a foid holder buy in, say, a months time from an FFL? Have been reading about Mexicos lawsuit against S+W and several dealer / distributors. Are individuals or groups of folks walking into shops and buying multiple guns at a time to sell on the black market? Did PICA or any other laws update how Illinois FOID holders or FFLs deal with multiple purchases? Years back I was at a local shop and a group of 4 guys were all buying Ruger 45s. I remember it because I talked to a relative, a local CoP and he said it happens all the time. One of his men worked at a LGS part time and left after a a shot tenure commenting on all the multiple sales. I believe multiple handgun purchases have to be reported to the ATF but never heard what’s done with the information.

Thanks Euler
