That's pretty much what I figured. I even asked him to clarify if what he was saying was Bass Pro because if that in fact was the law it is very idiotic. Well the more I talked to him the more it became obvious there are some idiotic laws in Ilinois but I also think he was taking a few of them too far and bluring company policy with actual law. And I agree Daley is an idiot. Maybe you could answer me this, can I visit a shooting range in Aurora with co-workers and be able to shoot? Just curious.
Nothing in the state law that says you can't go to a range in Aurora and shoot with co workers. However you are north of I80 and they have some seriously messed up local laws up there so I would have someone from that area make sure there are no problems.
Chicago area is very, very anti gun. Downstate where I am at there are still some messed up laws but nothing like what you experienced. The state law here in IL says that IL residents must have a valid FOID (Firearm Owners ID) to purchase guns or ammo. residents of states that immediately surround IL can buy in accordance with their state laws. To purchase being from Ohio, I am not sure but I think you would have to have the IL dealer ship the firearm to your local dealer IF they can even sell it to you. IL law requires residents to wait 3 days before picking up a handgun and 1 day for a long gun. Also where I am at an overwhelming majority of the people are in favor of a concealed carry law, only problem is the Chicago area has the numbers to keep it from happening.
We've been trying to give Chicago to Wisconsin for years!
