bobapunk Posted April 15, 2014 at 09:38 PM Share Posted April 15, 2014 at 09:38 PM When you go to the range. They went to see your FOID card and they hold on to it till your finished. I don't want them holding my CCL while I'm using the range. I don't want my card getting scratched or bent from the clip board they use. I'm OK with having three cards as ID's. Can't say I've ever had a range ask to see my FOID, is this normal? I think is is SOP at indoor ranges... I know the local indoor place here asks for both, and then hold on to one until you are finished (I don't recall which one...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Brody Posted April 16, 2014 at 12:46 AM Share Posted April 16, 2014 at 12:46 AM As a member of the military, I maintain my Illinois residency even though I haven't lived there for a long time. I had my FOID card for 5 years before anyone ever asked to see it (at the range I did my CC training at). I can't believe the idiocy you have to deal with on a daily basis. I understand the tinfoil argument. I'm not sure I agree with it or not, but I understand it. Having your drivers license taken when issued a ticket is a pretty solid argument not to make the drivers license and the LCC the same. There's no reason they couldn't combine the FOID and LCC into one card though. I'm aware of the unreasonable opposition to eliminating FOID, but how could anyone possibly be politically opposed to combining the two cards?

IL-Logical Posted April 16, 2014 at 01:05 AM Share Posted April 16, 2014 at 01:05 AM Arguably if they combine the two it will have unintended consequences that I will not share publicly due to not wanting to give the antis ideas in why it would work in their favor. I've thought about it and the scenario I have in mind would be bad for us. Probably not in ways anyone had really considered. Either leave it alone or repeal foid altogether, but most definitely don't combine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GUNS&LAWYERS Posted April 16, 2014 at 11:44 AM Share Posted April 16, 2014 at 11:44 AM Since it appears that to wish the FOID and the CCL would combine is a pipe dream, I think we should all dream bigger. Why waste any effort on combining the two, rather, try to have the requirement for a FOID abrogated if you have a CCL. Or, dream really big...the elimination of the FOID Act. It seems like a waste to talk about combining the two on one card when it is much more practical for the CCL to substitute for FOID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NSA will love you if you could just put all of your transactional purchase accounts into one easy to record data stream. It will reduce the required man hours to track you by a fifth.

spu69 Posted April 16, 2014 at 07:54 PM Share Posted April 16, 2014 at 07:54 PM Great idea, I think every criminal masquerading as a waiter/waitress should have one so they can transfer all their customer cards to their own personal COIN device. This thing was made for identity theft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockerXX Posted April 16, 2014 at 08:06 PM Share Posted April 16, 2014 at 08:06 PM I say get rid of the FOID and the CCL, only a need to prove name, residency and age to own/carry a firearm aka if you have any state issued ID you are golden... As for the original topic, I had a feeling all along that the 'task force' to do this was nothing more then a pretty wrapper to appease gun owners and make the bill more favorable, just like the weak preemption they wrapped the bill in...

joybulb Posted April 17, 2014 at 12:26 AM Share Posted April 17, 2014 at 12:26 AM I'm OK with having three cards as ID's.This, what's one more card... I'm happy to have to carry this new card around. Ecstatic even. Then again maybe we can get them to add FOID & CCL to the iphone Passbook(purple) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
