You can only do a private party sale to another resident of Illinois. If your buyer is out of state, you will have to ship the rifle to an FFL holder in his state. If your buyer is an Illinois resident, you must get his name, address, FOID, number, & expiration date and keep that information...

You'll be good to go up until the time that someone tries to prosecute the issue. So would it be easier, not to mention less costly, to simply declare that you're shipping a handgun/ or wind up out of pocket trying to defend your position if it ever came to court?

When I first got it, I field stripped it to clean & lube it. When I tried to field strip it after firing 200 rounds at the range, the slide was completely locked up.

When my Ruger SR9C had to go back to the factory, Ruger included a full set of paperwork when they returned it to me. It covers the SR9C, SR9, and SR40. Since I already have a complete set of paperwork that came with the gun, the first person who really needs the owner's manual, etc., can have...

Illinois law only allows you to purchase a long gun in a contiguous state, meaning a state that shares a border with Illinois. Here's the exact wording: 65/3a. Reciprocity. (a) Any resident of Illinois who has obtained a firearm owner's identification card pursuant to this Act and who is...

The Combat Masterpiece revolvers are some of the classiest looking revolvers ever made. Here are a pair of my 15-3s.

Thanks for all of the input. I borrowed a Kahr P380 from a friend of mine and took the wife shooting. I had her shoot my LCP and then the Kahr. She liked the Kahr much better so we ordered one for her.
