    Air guns in Illinois

    I started thinking it would be fun and cheap to shoot an air rifle and found some really good deals off the internet. At least untill I found out it is illegal to ship air guns to Illinois that are rated 700fps or higher or larger than .18 caliber. I can still buy from an Illinois dealer after...

    New gun laws proposed for Illinois

    There is a thread in "Activism" titled "Illinois Gun Owners Lobby Day" and I just wanted to let people know why they should attend. One bill carried over from last year would make any magazine holding over 10 rounds illegal. Another would make all .50 rifles and loaded rounds along with all...

    Promag magazines?

    I just picked up a S&W 645 and need a couple spare magazines for it. I found some S&W and some made by Promag. Has anyone had any experience with this brand, there is a pretty big difference in price. I would rather go cheap if they are of good quality, but quality is the big thing. Thanks, Jim.

    MidwayUSA does good

    I just got a n e-mail from Midway and they will now ship ammo to Illinois residents. First you have to fax or mail or e-mail a copy of your FOID card. I have seen some good deals on ammo that I couldn't get because they wouldn't ship to Illinois. Jim.

    County resolution in Illinois

    I am part of a group of people in Illinois working with our county boards to pass a resolution telling Springfield (state capital) the people outside of Chicago do not want any new gun control. At least 25 counties out of 102 have passed this resolution and we are pushing for more. I live in...

    Instant Check question, Illinois out of state

    Even though I live in Illinois I can legally buy a firearm in Indiana. If it is a hand gun it must be transfered to an Illinois FFL who must run the instant check and hold it for the three day waiting period. Long guns can be bought directly from an Indiana FFL legally. My question is...

    Speedloader for Super Red Hawk

    I have a SRH in 454 Casull which also shoots .45Colt, and would like to find a speedloader for it. I have found a HKS listed for a S&W M25 for the .45auto rim, which is .004 bigger in diameter and a bit thicker than the .45Colt. The spacing between the charge holes is the same on my SRH and my...

    Double barrel revolver cap & ball 36 caliber

    At least that is what I believe it to be. I am not able to post pictures so I will do my best to describe it. There is nothing marked on the gun anywhere I can find that would give a manufacturer or model number. There is however a serial no. stamped on the bottom of the butt; 0013xxx. The...

    No CCW signs in Minnesota?

    I will be in Minnesota next week, I know they have a requirement for signs that prohibit CCW. I would like to know if I would not notice the sign and go in anyway is this a big deal. I know that in some states you will just be asked to leave and if you do so without any argument there is no...

    7.62 round nose bullets

    I just got some 110 grain round nose bullets in 7.62, this is my first attempt in any rifle caliber. I got a good deal on the bullets and I shoot about 60 yards or less with my AK so they should work fine for me. My problem is the load books I have give the COAL using longer more pointed...

    Modified Illinois fanny pack carry legal?

    I carry fanny pack style here in Illinois, gun unloaded, completely encased but hate the looks and to me it is pretty obvious what it is for. I also carry my "J" frame in a soft case that just fits the inside pocket of a Levi jacket. This way it is almost impossible to see anything, the case...

    Yes, I know we in Illinois havent been doing well when electing Governors and I am not impressed with the Republican leader. That would be Judy Topinka our current Treasurer.

    Future governor of Illinois?

    This is a very importaint subject for all in RKBA especially those of us in the four states without CCW. We in Illinois have survived almost 4 years with a democratic house and senate and a democratic, gun hating governor. A big reason we have done as well as we have is the fine Democrats from...

    When a NICS is called in is the serial no. or type of firearm refered to or is it just the person being approved? I am asking specificly about Illinois because here the NICS goes through the Illinois State police and they seem to have their own rules about the check. I still don't understand...

    AK or SKS?

    I have finally decided to look for a long gun, I am primarily into handguns and am pretty ignorant about semi auto rifles. I just shot in a two gun match at my local club the first time Sunday with a borrowed AR and really had a ball. I liked the AR really well but that is a bit more money...
