Kraaaken Posted December 29, 2019 at 01:48 PM Share Posted December 29, 2019 at 01:48 PM Yes to both. Instant approval or decline. Print the resulting pdf form and fill out 2 copies one for each party. In addition I typically also print out a bill of sale but not really required. Once approved the 72 hour clock starts as a minimum wait period for handguns. Good for 30 days. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kraaaken Posted December 29, 2019 at 02:29 PM Share Posted December 29, 2019 at 02:29 PM Oh, i've heard of folks mentioning that "doesn't the clock start upon intent to purchase" - I've never seen that written anywhere. Also, might be hard to prove "intent to purchase" in court - if you run the FOID that DOES start a clock on a computer at the ISP and is a much safer fall back unless you plan to keep any emails or texts for 10 years - might work, but why risk it, IMO. If you buy from an FFL, you can't just say on Thursday "i intend to purchase that" then sign the 4473 form on Sunday and expect to walk out with it. They have to call your FOID into and wait 72 hours. I feel that is the safer method to just not have any air of trying to shirk the time requirement. this is a nice pamphlet on IL P2P gun transfers. https://www.isp.state.il.us/docs/firearms052104.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anonymous One Posted December 29, 2019 at 03:19 PM Share Posted December 29, 2019 at 03:19 PM Here you go: https://ispffl.com/Public/FAQ.aspx (Click off the dealer alert and then click on the blue link for the full content.) Here's what one of the bullet points states:Can a customer call up and order a firearm over the phone, then come in and pick up the firearm later? The waiting period begins when the buyer and seller reach an agreement. FFLs need to document how the waiting period was observed. The documentation needs to be verifiable and consistent with each purchaser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2A4Cook Posted December 29, 2019 at 05:02 PM Share Posted December 29, 2019 at 05:02 PM Yet, a convicted felon caught committing a crime with a gun he obtained illegally will have his gun charges dropped, assuming he has the right spin of the color wheel.

captdan Posted December 29, 2019 at 06:27 PM Share Posted December 29, 2019 at 06:27 PM https://ispffl.com/Public/FAQ.aspx Other than the waiting period is now 72 hours on all firearms the following info is current and issued by the ISP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundguy Posted December 29, 2019 at 07:28 PM Share Posted December 29, 2019 at 07:28 PM According to 720 ILCS 5/24-3(g) the waiting period of 24 or 72 hours does not begin until after its application for purchase has been made. The statute defines "application" as: "For purposes of this paragraph (g), "application" means when the buyer and seller reach an agreement to purchase a firearm." In People vs. Hurtado, 208 Ill.App.3d 110 (2nd District, 1991), the Second District Appellate Court took the position that "application" was a "request". The court said: "We therefore conclude that the legislature intended that the term "application" have the meaning of "request" and the statutory requirement is an informal request to purchase a firearm. Since we believe the legislature intended that "application" mean "request," we shall use the terms "application" and "request" interchangeably.

45Badger Posted December 29, 2019 at 08:30 PM Share Posted December 29, 2019 at 08:30 PM GTFOOI and this topic becomes irrelevant drivel. Actually, it is irrelevant drivel. Basic BS that the suckers in this state have normalized over the last 50 years or so.

Jwolf Posted January 2, 2020 at 08:29 AM Author Share Posted January 2, 2020 at 08:29 AM If someone buys more than one gun from you do you need to just get 1 approval code or a different code for each additional? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flynn Posted January 2, 2020 at 09:13 AM Share Posted January 2, 2020 at 09:13 AM If someone buys more than one gun from you do you need to just get 1 approval code or a different code for each additional? The ISP website says the approval number is valid for 30 days, thus IMO any transfers by the same two people within that 30 days can all fall under the same approval number since the approval number itself is not firearm specific and just a validation of the FOID card. Just print or copy off several of the approval forms for your own records. Receipts, records and waiting periods would be applicable for each individual firearms transfered under the single FOID validation number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the CC receipt to start the clock, I write a receipt w/the CC time on it and time stamp my own receipt. Then, I email it the the customer and we are good. Same concept as if you were to buy it online; pay for it w/CC, receive confirmation, get an emailed receipt sent to you.

I see the specific gun info fields, which are not transmitted to ISP, as a convenience for the seller's records, which must be maintained for ten years.

As said I consider that a convience bill of sale for your records, not a request as it's only for your own records, print out several copies if you do multiple transfers within the same 30 days with the same 30 day 'FOID is Valid' approval number.
